Some travelers collect souvenirs, postcards, or bumper stickers; I bring home a pencil from the various places I visit.

Getting snail mail is one of my favorite indulgences, and I think receiving mail is actually a common joy.

I travel a lot to promote the perfumes and to do the commercials.

I do a lot of running and hiking, and I also collect stamps - space stamps and Olympics stamps.

I tend to pack light but still keep a large bag because I love to shop. For each destination I travel to, I like to buy something that the country or city is known for such as olive oil, truffle, jewelry, etc. I also like to buy perfumes because the smell brings me back to the memory of my travels.

I do a lot of traveling overseas.

The United States Postal Service has a problem. People aren't sending as much mail as they used to. That means less postage revenue and difficulty paying the bills.

What I tend to get from America is very enthusiastic letters and e-mail from librarians and schoolteachers, the gatekeepers, though I hesitate to use that word. I've never been a huge seller.

In an urban area, you're not going to be an hour away from another post office.

It is better that one's customers come to one's shop than to have to look for them abroad.
