It’s no secret that I love my t-shirts when I’m travelling.
Stuffing my backpack and trying to zip it up much to the disbelief of my fellow backpackers who asked rather sarcastically that ‘do I need my 22 t-shirts?’ The answer is YES! A big FAT YES!
I was in heaven when I was in Thailand and I had the means to buy 100 t-shirts for £50. But thanks to my tight-fisted Yorkshireman in me, I managed to control myself and limited to buying £20’s worth. Oops.
So why do I buy them?
Well, people buy bracelets, people buy mementos, people buy art, people buy crafts etc. But for me, I buy t-shirts because every t-shirt tells a story. Back home, I’ll choose a t-shirt and I’m instantly transported back to places where I wore this. The Chang Beer T-Shirt. Bought this in April 2012 and it’s still going strong. Check out the places where I wore this.

Told you I like those T-shirts. I would just like to state that this t-shirt has been washed plenty of times.
So, I think it’s about time I bought some t-shirts. New Look has enticed me with their printed t-shirts for me to peruse. So what shall I have?
This has me down to a T (wait, did you see what I did there! Amazing!). Life’s a Beach. That kind of positive, chilled out vibe along with my aviator sunglasses and short shorts will have many bikini clad ladies running to me on the beach. I don;t need that Lynx effect.
I LOVE this t-shirt. Quirky and childish. Again, like me but if you look closely, this is a travel t-shirt in the making. Cars for transport, cameras for pictures, sunglasses for sun and naked girls. What can I say, this is me during travelling!
Now, you can’t go wrong with a simple white t-shirt, unless you’ve trekked for days through jungle and you just can’t get that monkey poo stain out. But why do I like the simple white t-shirt. It goes with anything. Also, I don;t really need anything on a t-shirt to stress how awesome I look. My award-winning jaw line and cheekbones will do the job.
Finally, we all want to go with the masses. Let’s face it, we’re sheep. Baaaaa. So this funky t-shirt will be useful at music raves, festivals and an excuse to look cool.
Now then, if only I could buy them and include them with my 22 other t-shirts in my bag. Oooh, shorts!
