Kuwaiti Souk, abaya seller

I bought a few flashy headscarves (with rhinestones on the border) from this merchant, who didn’t speak any English but was very helpful. Somehow we got the transaction completed.

Another image of a merchant from this souk that I was particularly excited about getting:

It sure looks like that he was having fun posing for you. Isn't amazing when you have two separate languages but you still can get the point across and finalize the sell. Great people image. V.
