Flooding the Flea Market
An unusual tale in Negreni, Romania
There is a small village in Romania, where the country's biggest flea market is held twice a year. Sellers flood the countryside with their horses and chariots, minivans and cars. This year, a storm greeted the arrivals, giving them a hard time setting up. Still, thousands came, not just for buying stuff, but for the community.
In this report, I tried my best to give everyone a sneak peek into this unusual, but authentic world, in Negreni, Cluj, Romania.
Most people sat under tents, waiting the rain to pass, while trying to appreciate the home brewed Pálinka, the Mititei, and cheap beer.
