I love taking photos of signs that I find amusing or creative. I first posted a blog with some funny signs 18 months ago (you can find that post here), and have found even more signs in my travels since then. Some of these are translational mishaps, others are just fun and creative and will hopefully, make you smile.
This one could be considered a little crude, so I apologize in advance if you find it offensive.
I love the one below. When we told our neighbor we were selling our condo and moving to France, he found a photo of theTravelsketcher, and left this sign in the window by our front door early one morning.
Here are a few translation mishaps. Mastering a language, and then communicating effectively in the new language is very difficult, I have experienced that first hand in the past three months living in France; so I am certainly not poking fun at any one culture or translator. Again, these just made me smile.
I hope this post made you smile!
Wishing you grand adventures,
Tricia

I love the quirky signs wherever I go. Granted, many of the good ones are from bars (and related to drunk humor), but they still give me a laugh! Also, the handwritten designs are envious to any non-artist out there!

Agreed; bars are a good place to find humorous signs. I love the handwritten ones as well. Thanks for reading and commenting!

These are all great! I laughed the hardest at the “no good story starts with someone eating a salad” one 😂

This is a post that I really appreciate as, having lived in China for four years, I consider myself something of an amusing sign connoisseur. I remember one time going into a hotel where a sign at reception said ‘Leave Your Values on the Desk’. Clearly though your collation of signs are intentionally amusing, I particularly liked the ‘Wanted’ poster. Thanks for brining me a few chuckles.

OMG; I get a good laugh out of ‘leave your values at the desk’ and at a hotel; oh dear. I’m glad you enjoyed the post!

Ah, I had a good laugh now at some of those signs! I also don’t understand why you’re not allowed to have ice-cream … and the one with your husband is so funny!

I love the signs, especially the ones about wine, however the wanted poster about Terry was great! We have a sign heading west on the 8 that just says Beaches!
