Souvenirs can run the gamut from expensive to cheap, tacky to really cool. But they also take up space in the suitcase.
Rome is a place that has wonderful souvenirs – shopping for clothes, art books from the museums, napkins with cafe logos, and then of course, your own photographs.
My favorite souvenirs are postcards. They are inexpensive, they pack well, and I can pick and choose the images I bring home, rather than lugging books around.
What are some of your favorite souvenirs from Rome that you bought and brought home with you?
