Japan, Why the eastern part of the world?
When I was 16 years old, for vacation I went to Australia for 3 months, there I met a Japanesse girl, she lived in Australia because her parents were studying in the University of Melbourne, and we became good friends, she told me a lot of things about her country, she was from Tokyo and loved anime and manga, just like me. She showed me pictures of cosplay festival in Tokyo, the different Shinto Temple of the city and a lot of different food.
Because of her (and anime and manga), I have a big interest in Japan, in its food, its religion, its landscapes, and its culture.
Now, that I´m studying Anthropology, I have an special interest in their culture, because it´s very curious how they combine different aspects of the occidental culture and their traditional Japanesse culture, for example it is the Japanese Arquitecture, despite of the advance of technology, they combine this technology with the traditional construction, like the appearance of buildings.
