I grew up going to obscure museums & weird tourist destinations, from an ossuary made of skeletons in rural Prague, to tallest bell tower in Germany, the town that invented the Cuckoo clock, & so many more. Seeing odd things throughout my childhood has made me extremely curious & ready to ask as many questions as possible.
I'll sit & read a Wikipedia article about just about anything, & my favorite thing to do while traveling is pick a random neighborhood just to dig through their local thrift store to see what gems the locals have donated. So far, my best find was a shop in Edinburgh, Scotland a few weeks after Fringe Festival!
