If you’re heading out trekking or you’re just in need of a nice t-shirt to replace the one you ripped that night at the bar then head to Gamarra on a Saturday. It’s a garment district that is almost exploding with tiny stores selling low quality clothes and shoes. On Saturdays there are also many food vendors and street performers. Just make sure to find a safe way to get there and back, you might be able to pay a taxi driver to take you there then pick you up. Or you can take public transit but not recommended in the dark.

Mostly vintage with some handmade goods thrown in as well, Violetta runs her shop out of an old apartment that used to be her mother’s art, studio giving it a unique feel. It can be easy to miss since you have to enter the apartment complex through a large door that accesses many more doors to other apartments. There are small signs that say LoveBug Vintage but you have to be looking.

Adorable and one of a kind, Viola and her mother take great pride in their beautifully curated shop. They have clothing and antiques going back to the 1800s, including functional art deco watches. I came for a quick interview and ended up staying for 4 hours talking with Viola about social justice issues all over the world. You don’t want to leave Budapest without stopping first here. When you are finished shopping head across the street to Cafe Toldi for some underground electronic music, a film, or a dance party.

Every Suday evening, historic Phuket Old Town is host to an open air artisan market selling art, jewelry, plants, herbs, used clothes, street food, and more.  Lined with restored Sino-Portuguese architecture, book shops, boutiques, cafes, and restaurants keep longer hours and welcome pedestrians inside for cool drinks.  You’ll probably catch traditional Thai dance performances or children from local school groups raising money for various causes on the island. Shop till you drop or take in the free scenery.
