    Over the months since moving in, I have begun to acquire furniture and appliances for my apartment. Did I make good choices?

      @MsJessie1963 I began self-studying years ago. I was highly inconsistent and inefficient. When I decided I really wanted to live in Japan long-term I opted to learn the language formally and went to Japanese language school for a year. Please watch my earlier videos and you may follow that timeline. It may give you insight on a path for yourself.

    Great furniture choices! Hopefully you'll get that RGB lighting and PC set up together soon! Might also be cool if you do a rough breakdown of furniture costs once you have pretty much finalised your apartment, that couch for 4k JPY looks like a steal!

    You need to know that new bed sheets, clothing... Basically any new fabric you purchase needs to be washed before you wear it as it contains formaldehyde and various other carcinogens, supposedly part of the process. So wash everything before wearing or contact with your skin for prolonged periods of time... IE:- BEDDING 😮😮😊

    Hi Dan. Congrats to the progress and well done! The rest of the stuff will come in place soon. Hope the gas man came by, I tend to get stuff for cooking first of all, but that is just me. I recommend an expedition to Daiso, good stuff at decent prices. Yeah, it takes some planning being 203 cm tall in Japan. I do not know about your foot size, but I draw 46 and in ryokans etc the biggest slippers they ever have is 42... Well, a less important problem :-)) Good luck with the rest and enjoy Fukuoka. Happy New Year and lunar year!

      @catea2551 I don't mind releasing each video on its own. Just that, I don't talk through the process nor do I instruct how to assemble the items. And I may have other copyright music playing while I work. I could still release them as silent videos with other copyright free music over it and some subtitles.
      T bed frame was most difficult and time consuming. It took three sessions over three days. It would have been must faster with a drill that I should have ordered from IKEA for such a purpose. Still, it was fun.
