While appearing on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon on Thursday, Jan. 30, the Stranger Things star, 22, opened up about the end of her time on the Netflix show after four seasons playing Max Mayfield.
"It was really hard, really difficult to say goodbye," she confessed. "I think 10 years for the whole show. But I don't know, we grew up on it, grew up with each other, like our audience grew up watching us and I don't know."
When host Jimmy Fallon asked if she took anything from set, Sink admitted she "took a lot."
"Well, just like the essentials, you know," she continued. "I needed Max's skateboard, which that was actually gifted to me, the skateboard, cool. I've got some Walkmans, some Kate Bush cassette sand some vans and stuff. Like, every shoe that she's worn."
Though she joked her home is becoming a "little museum" of Stranger Things memorabilia, she added that she needed to be "careful" because her space was slowly growing more crowded.
