Street vendors are a huge part of the neighborhoods I grew up in, in Queens, NY. I am drawn to their hustle, their creativity, their way with words, in NYC and where ever I go. From my experience with street vendors, they can show you an ink-less pen and convince you that it's the purchase of a lifetime!

We made a 2-hour line to enter Frida Kahlo's home 'Casa Azul' when she suddenly made her way through a multitude of tourists selling Mexican textile blankets. Her monumental presence was felt.
