importance of the setting

the importance of the setting in packer story was the fact dina the character loved what she saw in japan from the culture to the food. to what they wear to how they spoke. it shows when a place or even a person sparks your interest you stay with it a long time. also as well as the culture the two different cultures colliding and learning something from each other. it  showed that and let you learn a little bit more about dina, as well as packer as well. maybe for her she had a place like that she wanted to go to or maybe it was even japan. the idea of seeing a new world or a new place, and either watching it on tv, or hearing about it.
