I know you're of Japanese heritage... have you been?
Even amongst the throngs, its easy to sense the Japanese identity in Kyoto. However, I felt it most strongly being the only white male in an onsen in Kinosaki last year. That was a trip! There were WWII-age old guys kind of crowding around me wondering if I was American. We're all nekkid in the onsen. In instances like that, I am always Canadian, LOL.
