"I placed some benches and tables, and a table for preparing coffee and tea as well as another table for presenting the artifacts and traditional jewelry," he said.
"Shortly, I bought a Volkswagen car from a friend of mine and I thought of exploiting the car to make it as a small hotel", he stated.
