1. intro: palestine market area surrounds town square
very sparse
set up around a little town square
1.palestine "home depot"
observation: where you only rent the screwdrivers and equipment
insight: This is better for the environment. In our area you do not have this
service
as far as I know
If you want equipment, you have to buy it as far as I know, unless you are
fortunate to find it on craigslist or free cycle.
2.palestine "starbucks" still uses weights to weigh the coffee beans
observation: The man behind the counter wears a middle eastern head garb,
turkish coffee served in little tea cups
insight: amazing experience to go through this experience
3. palestine drug store
observation: has half used cleaning products for sale. ex
spray and aresol cans look very old and rusty but must have something in it.
Prehaps you can borrow it and return it when you are done using it?
insight:Because of the wall in between Israeal and Palestine, it is difficult to
get things into the town.
4. Palestine farmer's market on wheels
observation:farmers drive house to house to deliver fresh produce
insight: it becomes a social gathering, where people smoke
next to fresh produce
5.Palestine gift shop
observation discards from Israel souvenir shops
insight: some peoples junk are other peoples treasure
6. Palestine safeway
observation: limited selection
insight: healthy no junk food in between you and produce
7.RWC farmer's market
observation: on a nice day it is quite enjoyable to do your groceries outside
each stand has a van behind for easy set up, take down
insight: people bring their own carts to roll around
dogs are close to food
