mosquito bag | i visited the museum of world insects and natural wonders in chiang mai by myself after a week long conference. i figured it is important to know my enemy (mosquito) well. maybe by wearing a giant mosquito, smaller ones will leave me alone. |

friendly frog bag | my friend itou gave me this bag as a part of a present for my 26th birthday. since he has been smoking for over 60 years, the bag smelled strongly of cigarettes. inside was a wooden puzzle that i could never solve as well as one of his paintings. |

mooneyes bag | my sweet dan got me this bag from the mooneyes store during our first road trip to socal. we successfully schemed to get a personal tour of the garage where the moon magic happens. i actually had a mooneyes sticker on the first laptop that i ever owned, so it was exciting to visit the source. |
|
zabars bag | my friend ingrid gave me this bag from a gourmet food shop as a souvenir from her frequent trips to new york. it's on the smaller side but with a thick study strap - for just the right amount of trinkets without causing shoulder pain. when i think of artisinal food goods, ingrid comes to mind. |
|
commuting mouse bag | my sweet dan got me this bag from the artist @rolilomi at the san jose friend fest. it's a b print because of the extra space at the bottom that i will put a pin or a patch on. i am also a mouse that commutes in a bubble shaped car. |

tater bag | my dear dan got me this bag as a souvenir from his family trip to idaho. the potatoes can pass as kidneys, lungs, or b*lls... he also got me some huckleberry jam to try. |
