See the map of the world at the back? You can add a pin to show where you are from. Tasmania, so far, is empty. I didn't have a spare pin with me or I would have pinned Tasmania.
They even had a special pin to commemorate opening day of the pin trading centre, and I have one to give away. Leave a comment before Sunday January 10th telling me if you collect pins, which pins do you collect? And if you don't collect pins, why not?
