How I came to buy the most expensive purse in my collection
I had four hours to wait at Puerto Vallarta airport, 6000 pesos in my pocket, and some very nice leather goods shops to browse. So I shopped for a purse. I ended up with this beautiful specimen to add to my collection. For a whopping $400. Partly because foreign money doesn't seem quite real. And also because I really, really wanted to avoid going through the currency exchange.
