European Token Tin- Some Souvenirs from Europe

An antique rosary Alex bought me at Porta Portese in Roma. Alex haggled the price down from 8 euro to 5. :)
A hand-crafted tiny sheepish lamb creature from Via San Gregorio Armeno in Naples. It was sadly injured during it's trip to the Colosseum, and lost a foot. :(
Both Alex and I were given a piece of the Berlin Wall from a worker in the St. Thomas Church in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin. I offered to pay for it, but the man was very sweet and kept insisting in German for Alex and I to just take them.A scrap of peeled paper with writing from the wall of Serge at 5 Rue de Verneuil, Paris.
And all these little things are kept in this small tin I bought from an old, charming Venetian man who was selling belongings from a boat along a canal as the sun was setting in Venice.
