For some reason the Asain culture fascinates me. I guess because when I was a kid my best friend's mother was Japanese and I loved going to her house, especially for dinner! I have also read so many great books on Asian culture like The Joy Luck Club and Snow Flower and the Secret Fan. Thanks for the chance.
