In Peru a year or two ago, we went to the "Market". Hundreds of "booths" in a very large building. Quit a few of these booths had a treadle sewing machine in front with someone making what was being sold in the booth. They didn't need an outlet.

That's what caught me too! What a beautiful woman. I bet those slippers are really warm - takes a whole new meaning to made from scratch. Thanks for the pictures. BTW so many
use the treadle because they don't always have access to electricity.

What a beautiful picture and such a lovely lady. I would love to sit and talk with her. So nice that you give your photographed folks a small appreciation gift. That is such a lovely thing to do. Sounds like you have traveled a lot and seen some interesting sites. Thanks so much for sharing.
