The Activities
The majority of Gypsies live today from peddling, but this working activity is hampered by the reluctance of local authorities to facilitate permissions for sale. Other activities in which working Gypsies, very distant from the previous ones, are the agricultural activities, collecting paper or scrap, antiques, and even the art world.
