Calimax the anit-tourist trap

my favorite place to go visit in other countries is the grocery store. a grocery store is polar opposite of a tourist trap. almost anywhere in the world there are grocery stores. wherever you are, when you go into a grocery store you can see real people, real food, some things you recognize, and some thing with you cannot identify at all. the one constant about all people is that wherever you go, all humans like to eat. a tourist trap is a place that is setup to get tourist to come and live out their travel fantasies, and in passing seperate them from their dollars. when you walk into a grocery store, you are confronted with seeing real people in real situations and real food. i love being able to share a moment with people who are going about their daily lives, and get a window into what other people experience on a day to day basis. and besides, you never know what you will see down the next isle.
