A few years ago, i bought my sister a book about Japan because she had been on a six month round-the-world-trip (as some graduates do) a few years previously. I started reading about how it took so long for Westerners to discover due to seas and the length of trip. And then when they got there, the culture shock! I read a few chapters and then had to give it up.
