In 2001 Karin Muller returned from a year in Japan, where she filmed a four-hour adventuredocumentary series entitled Japanland.

I've just watched it, it's GREAT!!! Cool
The companion book have been published by Rodale Press (October, 2005) and the documentary series will air nationwide on public television from 2005-2009.
Karin was giving lectures on Japan at National Geographic, various universities, and overseas in 2005 and 2006.

Karin Muller:
A lifelong friend – a man who had lived in Japan for 28 years, married a Japanese woman and raised three children there, found out that I was going to Japan for a year to make an independent documentary. He called me up to try to talk some reality into me.
Japanland Kshoottsukiji
"The only way you’ll ever become a part of the culture," he told me, "is if you were born in a Japanese village to Japanese parents".
I knew it wouldn’t be easy, but I had grown up on several continents, spoke five languages, served in the Peace Corps, and already had two travel documentaries under my belt. I was convinced that I could learn to read and write the language, study the rules, and if necessary, completely recreate myself – my character, my way of looking at the world. Whatever it took to fit in.
I was a fool. Very Happy

Japanland Muller1
Karin Muller is an Swiss-born author, filmmaker, photographer, and adventurer.
She set out in the 1990s to travel the world's historic highways.
Her first expedition took her to the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Vietnam, which enabled her to produce a PBS television special, Hitchhiking Vietnam, and a companion book by Globe Pequot Press of the same name.

Her second expedition took her to the Inca Road, a four-thousand-mile trek from Quito, Ecuador to Santiago, Chile resulting in a television series, Along the Inca Road for National Geographic and a book published by the Adventure Press.

Muller's third adventure took her to Japan, where she lived with a pre-Buddhist mountain ascetic cult, joined a samurai-mounted archery team, and completed a 1,300-kilometer pilgrimage around Shikoku.
This journey was published in Japanland: A Year in Search of Wa, as both a documentary series and book. Japanland Jland16fh7
She took no camera crew or companions, or even much money, and went on foot and emerged profoundly changed and understanding more, but also realized as a "typical" American she could not really become Japanese.
