WHY DO YOU LIKE AND COLLECT MATCHES?

With their colors, patterns, and graphics, they are able to inspire me and take me back to past memories and sceneries.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ONES AND WHY?

I don’t have a favorite one but a set of three. This set is a gift of my aunt and it has flowers on it, one of my favorite things.

WHEN AND HOW DO YOU LIKE TO ENJOY YOUR MATCHES?

Almost all of my matches are in a glass bowl in my room. When I need some inspiration, I open it and I go through them one by one.
