At age 4 I told my father I loved visiting museums because they were full of "old stuff." At 8 I loved playing make-believe with my mum in the ruins of the castle near my grandfather's place in Wales. At 11 I deciphered cartouches on the statues of the Cairo Museum. At 16 I discovered Japanese history when I read James Clavell's "Shogun" while on exchange in Germany. Why it took me until 27 to actually start working in a Japanese history museum, I don't know!
