Japan's pretty xenophobic though. Someone I knew went to teach in Japan, she is white, some old peach came up to her and started teaching her how to tie her shoelaces. Non-Japanese cannot "officially" be teachers, so she was held as an inferior to everyone else who worked there.
The thing I loved about being a history major was that they taught you to be a story-teller. That, and every time I see a veteran, I know how to get them to start talking about their experiences. Sometimes, it gets pretty surreal -- I once talked to a WWII Pacific theater Navy vet, was 40 minutes late to work, but it was worth it.
