When I was in Italy earlier this year one of the places I visited was Orvieto. I saw many charming displays and thought of them for the theme of Where’s my backpack? this week. These are what I call souvenirs!

Wonderful displays, I love seeing wooden items and pottery. The nice thing about ceramics is that the designs are often unique to that country, which makes them nice souvenirs. Safer to stick with wood though, as you say! Great entry for the challenge.
