Show Notes今集我和Stella再次來到劉伯的小天地分享他的人生故事和經歷，並感謝Stella幫忙翻譯。自從有一次我和Stella 行山時在一個荒廢的廁所/休憩室遇到劉伯後， 我的好奇心已經驅使我想進一步了解劉伯如何建造自己的樹屋和小天地。起初我想跟劉伯談談有關他對某些香港歷史的看法， 但這些話題會留待下一次再跟劉伯詳談。因為劉伯當天很雀躍地先跟我們分享關於他和“借回來”的小天地的關係和歷史。 之後還展示了一些他所收藏的硬幣和分享其背後意義。如果大家有興趣知道有關劉伯的背景和經歷可以重溫第一回的訪問。Show LinksPart 1 with Mr Lauwww.jonathanjk.comhttps://twitter.com/HelloFromHK
