The antique fair gods are with you! So cool that on leaving Porte de Vanves you came across another place. Glad you made it to the Jardin des Plantes too, one of my favorite places and the Menagerie is actually the 2nd oldest (standing) zoo in the world!
Hi Abigail, I'm binge watching your trip. For some reason RUclips has stop sending me your notifications. That said, I'm really enjoying them now. The face on the tiny box is a character from the Chinese Opera. Take care, tfs
Thank you so much! Yes, I usually travel by myself. I've traveled to Turkey, Thailand, Vietnam and Spain on my own. Except for one young drunk Albanian at the Eiffel tower no one has bothered me. Although I have needed help with my luggage.
Lol, that could be expensive as I don't speak french and auctions in the US can be nerve racking I can only imagine how much I may wind up bidding here in France. Would be fun though.
I want to know what the prices are like in Paris at the flea markets. I know you haven’t shared what you have paid for the items that you are selling and that’s possibly why. I just want to see if I would be able to afford to buy a lot if I went over there. Great finds as usual!
Just like at home prices depend on where you go. Porte de Vanves and Clingancourt were expensive but the pop up flea markets had dealers who are more negotiable and the neighborhood sales have been the cheapest but obviously not curated. Would you be buying as a reseller or for yourself? As a reseller I have to take into account all the extra expenses. Like today, I had to pay for a taxi instead of taking public transport because of my luggage, I also have to pay for check in baggage. The Vide-Grenier site has been a game changer and I feel that even with all the extra expense I’ve gotten some fair deals. Not cheap, but fair.
Such a beautiful city! Thanks for sharing your trip.
My pleasure 😊
Oh my I loved everything I wish I was there with you the weather looks fabulous the food looks great The shopping looks fabulous So happy for you

Glad you like them! There's still part 3 Paris then we go to the south of France.

Thanks! I finally learned that but not before the video. So glad you’re enjoying them despite the glitch.
Beautiful adventure just concern you didn't travel alone. If you did WOW you're very brave...sending blessings.

You're welcome!
You want the auctions in the countryside… they hold up the prices. That’s where the dealers buy ❤️

@@AbigailsArtfulAbode it’s an experience 🤣❤️

Are you planning on doing WhatNot? You would be perfect for that platform!
I don't know what that is.
