The Coke collection
I started collecting Coke when my 2nd ex (Emily) gave me 3 cans of Coke from China. In fact, the Coke's were given to her from someone. We were still young at that time and she told me to collect it together as it would be "our" collection, something we could keep for the rest of our life. Although it didn't end up to be "our" collection after breaking up, I still continue to add in the number of Coke's into the existing collection.
I asked friends and colleagues to get me cans/bottles of Coke whenever they go overseas. To date, I have Coke's from Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong, Japan, China, Taiwan, Bangladesh, India, UAE, US, UK, Germany, Kenya - just to name a few. I really hope the collection would grow to hundreds of cans/bottles from 51 which I have right now.
If you're reading this, I hope you know what to get me the next time you travel overseas :p It doesn't matter whether it's bottled or canned but as long as you bring back a Coke for me (unconsumed), I'd be really happy.
I don't have a good shelf to put all of them up so I'm making use of my book shelf instead. Latest addition includes the Coke from Germany (World Cup edition) thanks to Hennley :)
