>>1662110One of my favourite authors is Isabella L. Bird who wrote travelogues in the 1800's
A lot of her travels involved passing through countries where hygeine was questionable and the development had not changed much for hundreds of years.
Hawaii, the US, Iraq, Persia and Kurdistan - Mostly complains about the cold, wet, mud and shitty housing.
Japan -Mentions their frequent bathing and peeping on her. -Mostly complains about her back aching and the lice and fleas that are everywhere
Also the Manga takes ~20 years off her age and makes her pleasant and pretty -Not the Karl Pilkington v1.0 that she can come across as.
