My boss recommended us a multilingual bookstore in downtown.
It's called "Sophia Books", on Hasting, between Richards & Homer.
So cool! I love it. Several years ago, my dream was to operate a bookstore like Sophia, having a bunch of books in several languages.
But I know the reality is, this kind of stores in China will hardly be as popular as in Van.
Business destroys dreams.

BTW, during the adventure of finding the Sophia, Alex & I ran into another bookstore, on Pender, I'm not sure about the name, probably "Macleod's Bookstore"? Yes, it is, I find it from the internet. It reminds me "84 Charing Cross Road". Right, another packed second-hand bookstore.

Both of them are very attractive to me.
