    Oh, I would love to have a table like that at home! I'll have to make do with my electric heating blanket instead. It works great on those cold and muggy days. Warm greetings from Falkenberg in Sweden

    コタツ似合う家族だよね。
    今の日本じゃ家族皆で炬燵(こたつ)入る機会無いけど、ライター家にはそれがある。
    素晴らしい事だよね。

    Happy birthday! 🎉 I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the amazing videos you've made over the past few years. They've brought me so much joy, especially during a tough year. Your content has been a real escape, and I appreciate all the hard work you put into it. Wishing you a wonderful day and many more years of success! 😊

    私は太っていて、私のコタツの高さが低く感じていました。そんな時、ダイソーでコタツの肢を延長する物が売っていたので、そのおかげで大変費用が安くコタツの高さを高くする事ができて助かりました…

      Leg extenders are such a smart thing! I've seen them made for beds and couches! I might want to raise our kotatsu by a couple of inches as well.

    During winter my family has adopted the Swedish tradition of using a sauna or well at our house we have a steam shower so a wet sauna, it’s a wonderful way in the evenings or mornings for us to warm up.

    部屋でファンヒーター使うなら蛇腹のホースあるのでヒーターからの温風をこたつに誘導するとこたつの電気入れなくても暖かく過ごせますよ♪

    Something that surprised me at a laundromat recently.
    Nowadays, laundromats have calculator-like keyboards that let you enter your mobile number, lock the door, and send you an email when your laundry is ready, meaning you don't have to wait in line at the laundromat.

    Thanks for sharing your family with us. I was super stoked about Echos of Wisdom as well. My kiddos have enjoyed it also. My middle child wanted to dress as Link for our fall festival so I dressed as Zelda with him and put a little Tri face on my baby’s yellow dress. It was a fabulous time😊

    Kotatsu has magical temptation. Most Japanese and cats sleep in kotatsu. Be careful!!!

    I came home with so many Japanese coins last week. I tended to use 1000 yen bills and always received coins. I forgot to use them in the airport. Mount Fuji had no snow. I was very surprised. I miss the sandwiches and onigiri from 7/11 and Lawsons. 😅

    Kotatsu season has started woohoo. We love playing board games, my husband is currently building a gaming table so we have more space to play them. Chicken Pot Pie and Kotatsu?? The cozy season has arrived! Oh my goodness I have never seen the head shoulder knees game but it looks so much fun. Happy Birthday Nate!

    Happy belated birthday! I remember getting excited using the launder mat with my missionary friends in Japan. of all things 😆it's the little rare things tourists don't usually use, and appreciating the small things. the highlight for this video is you showing PRAISE Elavation sung in Japanese, It gives chills down my spine with the words and being played passionately. The vocalist has a lovely voice too~! any possibility it will be on RUclips? Would love to listen to the full version. Many thanks and God bless!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NATE! We need a new heater for our kotatsu. It worked for one day and quit! But that was kind of expected because it's 30 years old, after all! 😅 Fortunately, the heaters are affordable on Amazon. We just have to wait till next month's budget because we got floor chairs this month. We crawled under it with our electric blankets! Lol

    I missed the live. So sad. I realized I will probably not make a live until spring as we had a time change in the US and I guess Japan does not have a time change. Now it goes live at 5 instead of 6. Before I get up for work.

    • @LIJ

      One hour makes a big difference, doesn't it? I wish they did daylight savings time here, but at least there's no time change to adjust to.

    日本の布団は温かい晴日に、干せばいいんですよ。
    押し入れに入れっぱなしだと、湿気に弱く雑菌やダニなどが繁殖しやすいので、夏場に何回か日光に当てれば気持ちいいですよ^^
    Japanese futons can be hung out to dry on a warm, sunny day.
    If you leave them in the closet, they will become susceptible to humidity and bacteria and mites will easily grow, so it's best to expose them to sunlight a few times in the summer to keep them nice and fresh^^
