Supermarkets


Supermarkets are the same all over the world: it's the same organisational principle. People are different. In America, customers like to talk to the cashier. In Israel, customers chat among themselves. I enjoyed a little talk too, but I never saw a customer carrying a machine gun in a supermarket, only in Tel Aviv. He was dressed in a T-shirt and he talked to his girlfriend, they were doing regular shopping. I said to myself 'now that's it, I entered the future'.
