It’s been a few months since either of us have worn wedding rings. We left them at home because we didn’t want to risk having them stolen during our travels, and we thought it would be fun to find rings that we could wear for the year at a market somewhere in South America. After getting sick of looking for something we liked through stalls and stalls of the same stuff at almost every market in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, we finally came across a great selection at the Sam Telmo Sunday market. Blocks and blocks of varied hand-made jewelry made for the perfect place to find unique rings. We didn’t spend too much time on it, but we each found a ring made by a different artist. We stayed in the funky, artsy neighborhood of San Telmo for our nine-day stay in Buenos Aires and loved it, so having a keepsake from there makes us smile too 🙂
