Hi everyone, hope you are having a great weekend, I know I am since Argentina is in semifinals ππ¦π·.
Collecting things is a habit I've had since I was little. It is very gratifying to see your collection and that these objects take you back in time and make you relive beautiful memories.
That's why for this weekend-engagement concept I chose to talk about this:
Weekend collection
Do you collect anything and if so what is it, why and when did you begin the collection? Write at least 300 words for your response, and because they are things you collect you must use your own images of those thing(s), not stock images.
Today I will show you two of my most beloved collections: my stickers and my shells and snails.
Let's start with the stickers, since this is my oldest collection, I started collecting it when I was in elementary school. I remember that when I got out of school my mom always bought me gum and the stickers were on the wrapper. Also, I asked my classmates for the packaging before they would throw it away and thus I increased my collection.
This was a habit that I continued to develop in high school. Then I stopped doing it because they did not continue selling these gums, that is, they no longer had stickers on their packaging, besides that I am no longer a fan of chewing gum as before. Well here I leave you some photos of this beautiful collection. As you can see, I have them very organized since they are different and I have them by category.
The first ones show animals with names. These were the first ones I had and I remember that it was very fun to see if your name appeared and thus see which animal you got. Mine never did.

This second group of stickers was very interesting and fun, because you had to find three differences in the images, sometimes I even noticed that there were four differences. I liked these a lot because I always liked mental challenges.

The following ones are about curiosities and although they are in Portuguese I understood them quite well, since my mother tongue is Spanish and it is somewhat similar to Portuguese.

The latter are also in Portuguese, they are world records and I have them organized by country.

The truth is that I liked these last two groups a lot, because I learned a lot of new things with the curiosities and I enjoyed reading the world records, which were super impressive and some of them were very funny.
The other collection I want to talk about is my shell and snail collection. I started this when I was in high school, I was 16 years old. It was for a week that I stayed with my family at Guanabo beach. I was delighted with the beautiful shells that were on the beach and decided to save some. This is how it all began and since then every time I go to a beach I try to look for a shell or snail that attracts my attention, in order to increase my collection. Here are some photos of these beauties.
