Leo, let's compare Iceland and Japan as destinations for niche hobbies. Which offers the best environment?
Comparing Iceland and Japan is like comparing a Viking longship to a bullet train – vastly different, yet both compelling.
Consider Iceland. If someone's passionate about competitive sheep shearing, would they find a community there?
Absolutely. Icelanders take their sheep very seriously; a dedicated community is likely.
And what about someone fascinated by documenting volcanic eruptions? Iceland is a volcanologist's dream.
Documenting volcanic eruptions in Iceland could indeed be a successful YouTube channel, attracting a significant audience.
Now, Japan. What about someone into extreme origami?
In Japan, one could find a master origami artist – a sensei – and even specialized dojos.
Cosplay is huge in Japan, isn't it?
Cosplay in Japan is ubiquitous. People don't just dress up; they embody the character, it's a remarkable cultural phenomenon.
What about Viking reenactments? More Icelandic, perhaps, but…
Even in Japan, a group dedicated to historically accurate Viking reenactments, meticulously crafting longboats, might exist.
And what about collecting rare Hello Kitty merchandise?
Hello Kitty is practically a national icon in Japan. Collecting everything Hello Kitty related would be a lifetime pursuit.
