Personal highlights

  1. Craft Market: many stalls on a big space, oddly located outside of town
  2. Artworks: colourful masterpieces, but not too much of diversity
  3. Vendors: extremely friendly people, trying to make a decent living
  4. Handcraft: artists explaining me in full length how they create their work
  5. Christmas: buying a lot of presents for my family and friends at home
