Things from other cultures you enjoy?

[Solid Snake]

Is there anything from another culture that you enjoy?
It can be food, decor, clothing, customs, ect.

I like a lot of decor from other cultures myself and my latest thing I have really grown to love are furins.
They are the traditional wind chimes of Japan. Fu meaning "wind" and Rin meaning "bell".
I ordered one last week actual, it is like the one pictured below but transparent.

Sticking with the same pattern here, I have always loved Maneki Nekos aka Fortune Cats.
They are common in a lot of Chinese and Japanese restaurants here in the US.
The one below is a cutesy version done in porcelain but the one below that is the traditional one.

To be fair, I love most Japanese or Chinese decor having to do with cats. lol
I also love the food, the dresses/robes the Japanese women wear (kimonos), and anime.

Anime/Manga...Pretty much anything of Asian origin interests me. Also Chinese, Italian and Hispanic foods make up ~80% of my diet.

How dare you disregard my beliefs as humor, I haven't ever offended you, if it makes me happy why are you trying to ruin it?

Anything Japanese but the language in particular. I watch TV Japan daily so I am exposed to the language every day. I love sushi and other Japanese food, anime, manga, J-Horror, Japanese TV, Japanese clothing and culture... if it's Japan, I like it.

I'm also quite obsessed with the United Kingdom. Never been there but I read a lot about the history. I am quite interested in the countryside there more than the cities. I'd love to see old buildings. And no matter what anyone says, the UK has the freakiest ghost stories in the world.

The countryside is just a lot more peaceful than anywhere else so it's easier to make up stories about the creepy lonely set of homes.

That works for me.

The Ancient Greeks and the Mediterraneans created the middle finger gesture. Flipping the bird has saved me a ton of time and explanation over the years.
