A Few Of My Favourite Things
This series follows five individuals and the personal anecdotes behind their wonderful collections.
What does an actress, an illustrator, a small business owner, a former title officer and a creative director have in common? There’s more than meets the eye and these five people are no exception. From surfboards, World War II memorabilia and children’s picture books, to colonial bottles and Chinese New Year paraphernalia, these collections are as unique as the people collecting them. With each story, their worlds are brought to life, with many a laugh to be had. After all, it’s true what they say—one person’s rubbish may be another’s treasure.
These stories were collected by Centre for Stories intern, Tiffany Ko.
Thank you to our storytellers: Pepa Saunders, Trần Thị Nga, Wayne Vinten, Fiona Burrows and Terry Hawser.
