A Bulgarian man gave me a yellow trousers in which I did the elbows pads.
I bought the tapestry (which is in the back of the jacket) at a flea market next to my grandmother's house to a 60 year old lady who did it for her ex boyfriend and did it in 2 weeks during her sick leave. She still had the tapestry, not the boyfriend, I have the tapestry now ;)

Most of the ornaments are from one of my favorite person I ever met at the market. He just came with a few jewelry from his ex mother's neighbor in order to make a few euros. He put the jewelry directly on the floor (most people put sheets under) and the rule was "you give what you want, what you have, there are no prices". I ended up staying an hour with this guy, speaking about everything and anything, he was a homeless person with kids staying at their mom's place, he only came to the market to buy an antenna and a 4 euros plate at the African canteen of his neighbourhood. He used to travel the world, feared nobody, ate in Michelin stars restaurants without paying, he lived so many lives... This man was really really generous and told me "I prefer giving my jewelry to people one by one than going back home with them, or worst, than doing a bulk price and selling everything at once", it's all about only looking for what you need not what you want and give away the rest. I never saw him again.
