olga the traveling bra

st. augustine said, "the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page."

i say, the world is an enormous book, and i think i'm only on the introductory pages!

travel is an inspiring, memorable experience. but isn't it more fun when you have a travel companion, whether human or inanimate?

that's partly why i started "postcards from miss igorota." the reason for choosing such doll is that it's representative of my being filipino (even if i'm not an igorota). and besides, i wanted to put gingmaganda's gift to good use! it's miss igorota or the barrel man (which i also own)! well, i'm pro-woman, so it's miss igorota for sure! and also, you can take a million photos in any given destination, but a travel "mascot" identifies your photos as your very own. anyway, the story of miss igorota is displayed on her blog in case you're interested.

but i never expected to come across a traveling bra! it's a black, lacy bra named "olga." the blog's tagline reads, "keeping the world abreast of all my exciting globe-trotting adventures." haha! imagine the thrill, embarrassment, and hilarity of photographing this piece of lingerie in public places! olga's recent booby adventure is in norway. go, on, i know you want to ogle at olga the traveling bra!
