  • Hey Tomodachis,
    this is my life reaction moving into my new apartment in Japan. I'll be living here for at least a year as Japanese Language student. What do you think of the apartment? Let me know in the comments.

    The front door is a genkan. And your grill is a fish grill, not a oven. You have to add water to the bottom of the grill before you grill fish. And you can toast a slice of bread if you like.

      I agree. If I were single and living abroad for an indeterminate amount of time, I'd be thrilled with that space. The balcony can look dark and grim but putting loads of plants out there all at different levels with some some terrific waterproof outdoor lighting (like solar powered sticks) nestled in amongst the 'jungle' in order to create atmosphere and depth would be sensational, definitely during the long humid summers as the sun starts to go down and the 'jungle lights' slowly awaken. 💛

    Where are you located? That’s an excellent price for an apartment in Japan. My son is stationed in Japan lives off base in a house. His rent is around 1200 a month. It does have three bedrooms and a yard somewhat. I love how they keep the shower separate from the restroom. Good luck on your journey in Japan. I loved it when I visited. The food is awesome and the people are so nice. You’ll have a great time. Lots of beautiful things to see.

      @ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293 10 дней назад

      I agree that the restroom being separate from the bathtub area is ideal, for a few great reasons. My current pet peeve is hotel designers who think everybody wants a bathtub plonked in the middle of the room, almost right next to the bed. My comment listing precisely WHY that is one of the world's most impractical infuriating design ideals would be far too long. Whoooooo starts these trends, but more importantly whyyyyyyy do they take off?! PS= In Europe they love removing deep soaking tubs altogether and just having walk-in shower cubicles. Erugh, during our long dark bitterly cold winters who wants to feel like they're in a gym when on a luxury holiday?! Also when spending all day in the company of your travel companion, doesn't everybody need some quiet time apart?! A bathtub is non-negotiable...in a separate room for crying out loud.

    It is a fish grill, not really a gas oven in the sense that it gives direct flame. You could use it not only for fish but also for meat, vegetables or bead and you could find recipes in internet using that fish grill and you could buy cooking metal containers to put into that grill, cheap ones from NITORI or DAISO, fancy ones from internet or maybe decent department store’s kitchen floor. I recommend to get one since cleaning would be much easier than putting your food directly into the grill, especially when renting the property. Please be careful though for fire accidents, or foods’ overflowing (cleaning the grill would very hard), never take your eyes completely off from the grill, it is not as stable as gas oven😊 Enjoy Japan!

    500 $ für alles inklusive Wasser, Strom, Internet, etc. bei der Größe kann man absolut nicht meckern. Die Fensterbänke sind schön groß, da könnte man schöne Pflanzen oder Kräuter zum Kochen hinstellen. Das Toilette und Bad getrennt sind ist in Japan vollkommen normal. Hast du vor dir ein Futon anzuschaffen oder besorgst du dir ein Schlafsofa oder so?
    Wenn du jeden Tag einkaufst reicht es auch, wenn du dir so einen ganz kleinen Kühlschrank besorgst. Frisch kochen ist eh am Besten.

    i think the net on the balcony is more so that people don't... well, off themselves.
