Title：A humorous look at the world around us.

Miwa Higashikawa is a folklorist who has a passion for preserving our shared cultural heritage. She is presently secretariat of the Kagoshima Explorers Club, an organization dedicated to finding the things, buildings, and places that make our towns special.

In this fascinating talk, she shows us how even something mundane, albeit a little unusual, can have its own history and add in its own little way to making our habitats the places they are.
