Where to begin? If I had to pick I think I am most looking forward to learning about Japanese mythology. I find Japanese art and culture captivating, and I would love to learn some of the background stories that shaped Japanese culture.


I think learning about the origins of the world from various tribes and cultures will be fascinating. Our origin is something humanity has always pondered. It will be fun to here some of the wackier ideas people had.
