Simulacra + Vera Icon-Markets

One of my favorite places to check out while travelling is market place. Although I love finding unusual products that simultaneously fascinate and perturb me, the main reason I love hanging out at market places, time permitting, is because I get to see how locals live and interact with one another. It's quite peculiar to see how similar everyone is, regardless of the culture difference.

I should mention that Turkish people were so nice (it may have seem more so because I had recently left very hostile Spain) and market vendors were not exceptions. Often times, they would encourage me to take photos of their products and explain unfamiliar products to me, not asking me to buy, but just to show me.
