We met this very friendly young lady in a shop that sold leather goods, hence the name of today's image. She spoke no English at all, which made our initial conversations a trifle one-sided. However, with the help of the translator app on my iphone, we were able to communicate a bit. This shop had wonderful handmade leather goods and after she and I bantered about in my broken Spanish for a while, she then showed me other leather items that were not on display - such as riding crops and bullwhips, leading me to believe the translator program was not working exactly the way I thought! Needless to say, it was quite the amusing visit!
A beautiful portrait! She has such a lovely smile, and I love the colorfulness of the bags around her. 8) (Riding crops and bullwhips? What did you say to her? XD )
