With one exception (Thailand - a gift from a friend) all of them are from places that I have visited in the past - California, Oregon, Washington state, Cape Cod, NYC, Vermont, New Orleans, Wisconsin, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Florida, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Russia, Italy, Spain, Greece, Austria, England, Germany, Czech Republic, Ukraine.
I agree - it's a tourist trap and probably a kitsch, but I like to have these little memories.

My kitchen theme, is all fruit, as well as my magnets.. Some of them have scriptures on them. My all time favorite scripture is: Jeremiah 29:11 About God promising me Hope & a Future. My pastor once proficied that scripture to me, from God & the Heavens above, and told me that I could be a Prophet, myself, if I quit living in "Fear", at that time I was waiting for my husband, to get back, raising three small kids alone, with no support, from anyone, but my church. So, that scripture is very near & dear, to my heart. Along with the 23rd, Psalm........

I don't have any travel magnets on my fridge. I do have ones that I have gotten free in the mail from companies and magnets I have gotten as gifts though.

none- but it seems to be a big trade doesn't it? and people get a bit defensive about it if they do have em. I know a couple that pick up magnets from everywhere and get them personalized- too wasteful for me. i use the ones they send in the mail,etc.

A friend just gave me a shiny magnet in the shape of Kentucky that reads "Got lucky in Kentucky."

all the states .. and they made a nice american map on the fridge .. except hawaii because i've never been there ..
the most difficult thing was to find exactly the same scale for each of them otherwise you won't have a nice shape of the u.s. map

Two from Barcelona, Spain. The magnetism is very strong ~ they work very well and they're attractive. We bought them on this trip: http://www.thetravelzine.com/Barcelona2006.htm
