What made them so great?

And the perspectives that kind of help you create on the society you live in.

So you first studied in Japan, then you mentioned Colombia and New York.

Was this like one right after the other or was it a little bit of a break in between?

Yeah, like a three-year, four-year research project.

How was it like for you personally then to be back in Japan and to live here?

You described it earlier when you were younger and having to go to your grandparents' place.

Oh, you didn't really want to be here.

Then you discovered an interest into like a pop culture and such.

But once you actually moved here or moved back here and made the decision to stay, how were you experiencing the city?

How were you experiencing the society?

Did you start noticing it in a way through the lens of a foreigner as you described yourself as Australian until then?

It's quite a luxury.

So as a student, you were not so sure what you wanted to do.

You studied a little bit of urbanism.

You went to do some journalism overseas.

What do you kind of dive into first?
