i honestly feel sory for anyone that doesnt live in an area that dates back to the medieval ages like u will never know the epic highs and lows of genuinely fearing cutpurses while knowing someone had the exact same fear in the exact same place but a thousand years ago

#not that cutpurses are the most common form of petty theft here although it DOES happpen #most common is just pickpocketing and they r extremely good at it #like there are a lot of techniques that they have to distract you and you don't even notice they're taking your phone #also this hasnt happened to me personally #not successfully. u just have to have your wits about u #and if it seems like you know where you're going and are familiar with the area they're less likely to target you #i have respect for them tbh like that is an Art
