Is Souvenir Needed?

We then proceed to talk about souvenir and its nature in the modern world. Is it really needed to open up a souvenir shop? The word souvenir dated back in 18th century in Fance where it means memento, if a piece of memory from that particular place resonate with the person at that time. A photograph, a local produce(Japan is a good example of very keen of its locality from region to region). It also depends on the two type of stereotypical mention in the book culture in design by Guy Julier, Where tourist expect the rare sight of locality to be common. Their mindset is to take pleasure in whatever they see. Whereas a traveler for good or worse experience the 'reality' of the foreign country.
