    Tale#28 Yuki Onna (Snow Woman)

    Hello, fellow sleepy heads!  Tonight, I am reading a story that may give you a chill. It's a Japanese folktale that's been told a long time ago in one region of where Tokyo is today. The title is Yukionna, which literally means snow woman in Japanese. While it has been told as a spooky story among people back in the day, The author, Lafcadio Hearn, known as Koizuni Yakumo in Japan, has written the story beautifully. Alright, bring your blanket (maybe two) and I hope you enjoy tonight's story.

    Tale #27 Bunjil, the Great Eagle

    Hello, fellow sleepy heads!  It's been a while since the last episode.. I hope you all were sleeping alright :) Tonight, I am reading a story inspired from the Aboriginal stories that are available online. While I was taking a break from podcasting, I was in Australia and learned this precious powerful culture that still exists in this world. The tale of Bunjil, the Great Eagle teaches us human beings a lot. And yet, I have to mention that as a person who was not born in Kulin tribes nor Australian land, I do not represent any of them. So my story tonight is created to respectfully collect the key essence of the story and lessons. If you ever wonder about Aboriginal culture, I recommend you reaching out to the elders, academia, and so on. Alright, bring your blanket and I hope you enjoy tonight's story.
