Soap.
In fact, I don't think we've had an American bar of soap in this house since...
well, not for a long time.

Taous from Morocco
La Toja and Heno de Pravia from Spain
Spuma di Sciampagna and Marsiglia from Italy
Monsavon au Lait and Le Chat from France
Magno from Spain
Imperial Leather from Ireland--with the magical little sticker that never comes off!
It's one of my favorite souvenirs.
It's small, cheap, useful, consumable, and it's not fragile.
And when it's time to choose a new bar for the tub, we get to remember where we've been!

I still have several hotel soaps that my grandparents brought back from their trip to Europe in the 80s, including Maja brand which I think is quite well known, it has a flamenco dancer as its trademark... I can't bring myself to use them so they live in my wardrobe and make my clothes smell nice :)
Wow! We don't get that kind of soap where we vacation. We usually get those little slivers of soap that you can't hold on to because they're so tiny to start with. But our vacations have never carried us out of the U.S. In fact, we rarely leave Alabama.

What a great alternative to cheasy tchotchkes that get stuffed in a drawer or collect dust! Thanks for the idea.
these aren't any old hotel or motel soaps...these are from the local grocery stores!
