I'm not a shopper. I'm your basic Old Navy/t-shirt and flip flops kind of girl. But what I DO LOVE is a shop of treasures! Fun. Cool. Unknown discoveries. And that's exactly what I found at Poor Man's Hole in @swansboronc. One could spend hours here shifting and sorting through the randoms and it honestly made my heart skip a beat! What do you love to shop for? #nctripping @sdosier #shopping #collect #collection #vintage #memorabilia #antiques #nctripping #discover_carolinas #welovenc #outaboutnc #travelwriter #travel #instago #travellocal #travelbug #instatravelling #igtravel #travelblog #travelpics #explore #livingthedream #inspiration #adventure #letsgosomewhere #travelawesome #explorenc #explorecarolina #playonnc #ig_northcarolina
