One of many habits I have developed, when travelling, is to “art bomb” the places we stay:

I take origami paper on holiday (like, who doesn’t, right?) and like to hide a finished cute model somewhere in our accommodation, restaurant, ferry, funicular or whatever for either the owner or a subsequent guest to discover – meant as a nice little surprise.

As an Australian, I try to include aussie flora or fauna, and memorize the fold.

If I am to be completely honest, I am astonished I have never folded Jo Nakashima’s “Kangaroo” before. It is a little charmer. I have a pack of indigo Tuttle paper that will be perfect for this, so it is sorted (apart from the practice needed to fold it from fading memory).

You too can fold along with me – Jump here for video and diagram tutorial
