What's special for this book fair?
It is the world's largest floating Book Fair!!
The book fair is locating in a ship called Logos Hope
I still remember is one of my friend told me about this
A book fair in a ship made me curious about it
The moment I saw an event in facebook about a book fair in ship
My first response is " I want to go and take a look!"
The ship is travelling different countries and last month it had a stop at Swettenham Pier, Jetty Penang
On the last day of the book fair
I managed to go there
OMG... A crowd of people lined up to enter the ship
Perhaps that day is the last day
The Logos Hope community of 400 unpaid volunteers from over 45 different countries lives and works together for one purpose
To bring knowledge, help and hope to people of the worldYou can find over 5000 titles of book there
Since they travel through so many countries, the books they offer are priced in units
And we convert the price into local currency base on the unit
The price of the books not expensive some of it even cheap
I purchased 3 books there..LOL
The staff inside the ship is really very friendly.
They just enjoy their works and treat us kindly.
Serve with smile
That day is too crowded
Too bad I didnt manage to connect with the crewmembers
To find out their story and what makes their culture unique
Besides the book fair,
A crewmember will become a storyteller
and share the story to the guests of the ship
Theatre
A section offers an ever-changing glimpse into the work of the ship
Hear from crewmembers who have a variety of jobs on the ship
International Cafe
Enjoy an ice-cream cone, a drink, popcorn and other snacks while relax in the I-Cafe
Lets see some pictures I take in Logos Hope..=)
