RE: Getting to Know the Flea Market of Palermo, Buenos Aires [ENG/ESP]

in Market Friday2 years ago

I love flea markets!! This one was especially nice and the aisles are nice and wide with room to walk by without the merchandise grabbing you. The chandeliers were pretty nice, the crystal one looks just like the one I have hanging here. :)

I am a fan of old street signs, well, especially if they belong to my street. I am not a fan of fake antiques, something manufactured to look old, but, is not. That is an amazing wall of cameras! Are there many flea markets in Buenos Aires? I would probably take double the three hours to get through! What did you buy? :)

Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday! I cannot tell you how pleased I am to see so many participating every week. I have learned so much about the different cultures of the world, especially the small things that go unnoticed except by those looking for them. Life is interesting, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. I hope the week has found you healthy and happy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
