The beauty of travel is that it is a uniquely personal experience. The things we see and the places we go can forever change us, offering experiences and insights and perspectives we may never have considered otherwise. For many of us, travel enriches and inspires our lives in beautiful and unexpected ways.
Yet even the most profound experiences and memories can be enhanced with a chosen touchstone to help focus our memories.

FAQs
How will my custom design be delivered?
Your digital image will be delivered to you by email as a .png file with a transparent background, meaning you can print it on any color you wish. If you know exactly which color you want for the background, we can deliver that as well for no additional fee. (You must provide the color Hexcode.) If you add a background color, we can also deliver it as a .jpeg or .pdf as well.
You will also receive a pdf file that will include a legend of every landmark included in your final design for future reference.
How do I choose my landmarks? Are some better than others?
You get to choose the landmarks that best represent the cities and countries that you visit. One person visiting Paris might choose the Eiffel Tower, another might choose Notre Dame, another the Moulin Rouge. It just depends on what will make the connection the best for you and the experiences you had.
For the best design, man-made objects are often the most memorable. Consider some of the following:
-
- Churches
- Temples
- Towers
- Bridges
- Iconic Buildings and architecture
- Statues
- Modes of transport
- Planes
- Trains
- Automobiles
- Cruise Ships
- Tuk Tuk
- Scooter
- Camper Van
Some natural landmarks could be used, such as Mount Fuji, Uluru or a natural arch such as El Arco de Cabo San Lucas. However it needs to be something discrete and distinct. Some landmarks defy simple representation, such as the Grand Canyon or Victoria Falls.
But we could think outside of the box. While we probably couldn’t depict islands for The Galapagos, perhaps we could include a penguin or a tortoise, or your cruise ship, or something else that was impactful for you to represent that destination.
For the Grand Canyon, maybe an icon of a hiker, or a roadrunner, or a donkey.
If you request a landmark we just can’t make work, we will communicate with you about choosing a more appropriate alternative.
Are there limits on how I can use my design?
Once purchased, you are free to use your design as you wish, to share online or print on whatever you want. If you’re asked, we would certainly appreciate it if you gave us credit, but we don’t put any watermarks or signatures on the design.
We do retain the right to reuse and repurpose any individual element of the design either for examples on our website, or for future designs.
How do I get my design printed?
We will deliver you the digital image to use. There are lots of companies that you can turn to for printing, depending on what it is you want.
We do not recommend any specific company – please do your own research to find the best deals, reliable work, and quality materials. You may wish to find a local printing shop to work with in your area where you could see examples of their work prior to ordering. If you are comfortable ordering online, you could try some well-known companies such as Vistaprint or Printful. (There are many, many others.)
Are there landmarks I can't use in my design?
We are unable to use text or images that could be copywrited, trademarked, or otherwise protected. This could include:
- Disney buildings or characters
- Modern copywrited public art
- Any art not in the public domain
Depending on your needs, we may be able to create a “Disney-like castle” to represent your memory of the destination, but can’t directly reference any actual protected images.
