I am trying to write a letter to my long lost English teacher in high school. she is a nun from Scotland. Now I am writing a part what did I study in university.
I graduated high school in Japan and went to college in Texas and my major was Spanish. I want to explain my teacher why I studied spanish in U.S.
What I want to say is below. but it is way too long. I would greatly appreciate if you could make it shorter and correct my english error?

Their is not a major difference between the American and Japanese culture, however the hispanic culture is very contrasting, their culture was a new experience and change for me. Their rich history, culture and customs are very fascinating, the more I study about them the more curious I get to understand the culture better. This is why I chose Spanish as my major.
Are you crazy? There is a huge difference between Japanese and U.S. cultures!

You can write it like this:
In terms of present culture, there is no big difference between U.S. and Japanese. Rather, hispanic culture(?) came differently - everything was new to me. Their(?) rich history, customs, and culture are all very fascinating which made me interested. The more I study them, the more curious i get; therefore, Spanish became my major.
just for people with mental impediment like beth here - THEIR means smth belongs to THEM, and THERE is an adverb, meaning smth is not here, but THERE. so u using pronoun their is totally correct
