See	Hear	Feel	Smell
Chopping fish and meat Shopkeepers staring Fish whipping with thin tails Dirty paths Piles of shoes A scale to measure the fruit Fish flipping around Chopping the head of a fish Crabs and crayfish Shopkeepers with Riel Flies sitting on the meat People eating breakfast Blood on the table from the meat People with small bags of fresh food Dirty floors Glitter and color Shiny fish scales Toys & barbies in a pile Moving mechanical toys Guts and intestines Headless chickens on cutting boards Sea creatures in bowls of water Street food Dim lights Tiny rows of shops squashed together Chattering tourists Decapitated fish Greedy sellers Flies everywhere Police in the street Souvenirs in big piles	Loud voices speaking Khmer Fish flapping against the side of the metal bowl People eating People chopping meat Clattering of metal Loud voices Babies crying Kids screaming People arguing about the price Motorbikes carrying supplies roaring through the crowd People laughing	Too close Feel uncomfortable People brushing past Like I might vomit Interested Sweaty Hot and faint Smoke in my eyes Nervous Dreadful Hot air - no breeze The heat of the market Hot ground through my shoes My shoes sticking to the dirty ground	Strong fish smells Ripe fruit Sweaty people Dirty water in puddles Disgusting raw meat Stinky water Fresh fried noodles Coffee Rotten trash Blood Slimey fish   Rusty metal Pork and chicken Smoke from cooking fire People smoking on the street Manure Raw meat Grose
