Things that make you go “Hmmm…”

One of the things I love most about traveling is seeing things that make me stop and scratch my head in wonder, or just make me giggle. Sometimes it’s an ordinary object that seems out of context, like the surprising variety of everyday items that are sold in vending machines. There’s also a lot of creative advertising that catches my eye, like a mannequin posed precariously on a window ledge, advertising a camera supply shop. These things that you don’t see every day are part of what makes traveling such an eye-opening experience – in more ways than one!
