Anything by Juliet Marillier, Neil Gaiman and Jacqueline Carey. Love all kinds of music (Sarah Slean, Radiohead, Amanda Palmer, Debussey, etc.) though generally dislike pop. Not a huge fan of movies or TV but I do like Pan's Labyrinth, Love Actually and most things with Will Farrell. Love my comedies (Black Books, Mighty Boosh, It Crowd). Love comics; my favourite being One Piece followed by Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, Fruits Basket, Bleach, Watchmen, Transmetropolitan, Paradise Kiss and many others.

I don't think there is any one thing. Living in Japan was a lifelong dream, but there have been plenty of excellent and amazing moments in my lifetime.
