I want to share this simple metalic box that to you may look dull, but to me is a sweet reminder of my carefree childhood years. I used to watch the specific show on a public tv channel and their sweet, melancholic figure has been carved in my brain as the depiction of innocence, a time that is not coming back.
Where I got it? It was bought from a toy store in Uppsala, during my first ever trip abroad. I remember walking past the shop and when my eye caught some Moomin figures in the window I got so excited that I burged in to see what other Moomin stuff was there. To be honest, I wanted to buy a glass snowball with Moomins inside (I fell in love with it), but I was afraid my luggage would already come overloaded so I chose this box that weighed a lot less.
It works as a connecting link between my childhood and my grown-up years, all dipped in sweet memories and feelings! :)
