I am looking for blogs of people who are studying alone and do not belong to a university. I am looking for someone who can teach me how to learn about what I want to know.
For example, when you search on the Internet, you get many answers, but what do you do when you can not find the words to search in the first place?
What kind of books should a university first grader read in order to learn culture and education?

Before I ask someone for each of these questions, I am looking for someone to find out what to do if I want to find out for myself.
In Japan, there is a blogger called "Reading Monkey". In the English-speaking world, I want to know what kind of people there are. Add a reading monkey blog to the URL (in Japanese).
