Taipei exchange

This is a long story. A pair of little sisters opened a coffee shop called "Dora's Coffee". My sister realized her dream and opened a coffee shop. My mother asked my sister for help. In order to help my sister get bone China and buy herself a new car, my sister started a barter activity. Nothing is sold in the coffee shop except coffee. If you want them, you must exchange your own things. My sister became a TV fan in the movie. Do you know what a couch potato is? Do you have a sofa at home? I also have a sofa at home. If someone travels around the world and comes to your city, you can exchange your sofa with him. He can borrow your sofa for one night. In exchange, if you go to his city, you can also live in his sofa.

Later, a man came and brought stories of thirty-five cities in the world. These thirty-five stories completely captured my sister's original dream. This man was the co-pilot, and then he took all his stories away decisively. So, that scene happened. My sister decisively told the person who bought her own coffee shop that if you give me air tickets for these 35 cities, I will exchange my shares in the coffee shop for you.
