Andrea carries a classic Italian leather wallet. Although a keen photographer (as the trusty SD card proves), Andrea prefers to carry small gifts as mementos of his loved ones as opposed to photos of them.

Povilas has had his wallet for a number of years, as can be seen by it’s well-worn look. However, the rugged outside hides a very clean and tidy interior holding only carefully curated essentials. Povilas carries €100 ($112) in his wallet, but surprisingly, rarely uses cash preferring to pay for things with his debit card. In fact, he usually only visits an ATM once a month, so that cash must have been in his wallet for a while.
