Rural Japanese Apartment Tour

- This is my rural Japanese apartment tour in April 2019. My apartment is pretty spacious with 3 rooms, a kitchen, and a large bathroom. I'm living here as a part of the Jet Program. It's pretty cheap because it's in the countryside on an island in Nagasaki prefecture.
About me
I'm logiebear. I was in the Jet Program, teaching English on an island in rural Japan from August 2018-2019. I'm now back in the San Francisco Bay Area. I love eating, traveling, and being creative.

Alright y'all, I cant be the only shook by that pink thing
🤣😂
Rewound 3 times, paused it, and I'm still confused
I had to repeat that part hahaha
Abraham it must get real cold there. I wonder if they have power outages? I need more heat and carpet. Also a dryer
I also wonder how far she lives from work?
For 199$ in California you get...sink
The cheapest here in Cali, is 2k. 2,000.
A sink? That's the $200 down payment for the picture of the sink. The actual sink is $2,000.
LUXURY
not even gang ridden neighborhoods got 200 dollar apartments
Sink? That barely covers the water and sewer charge every month.
I HOPE YOU READ THIS. MOVE YOUR BEDROOM TO THE OTHER ROOM. LOOKS LIKE BLACK MOLD WHERE YOU ARE CURRENTLY SLEEPING. BLACK MOLD CAN MAKE YOU VERY ILL. NEEDS TO BE FIXED.
thank you! i dont live there anymore
logiebear you don't. But I do and I needed that information
ArchRockK contact your real estate company or landlord.
@@logiebear good!
Has she died?
That pink heater is the star of this blog😂
erickson penilla I'm sure it keeps her warm at night.
xD
My thoughts exactly 😂
Yeah ,I actually laughed when I first seen it 😂
@@shelbycurtis8885 im sorry i just cant stop laughing every time i saw that.you heater are electric cost you a lot in electric bills.You should buy gas heater much cheaper.I know bcoz i leave also in japan.
wow 200 a month is crazy cheap, a steal for sure
Yeah it's pretty nice! Thanks for watching
JET subsidize rent.. it’s probably still only around 400-500 a month though
Cheaper than mine
That’s because the apartment is old, dirty and has visible fungi/abestos all over the ceiling...
Because of the mold.
9:27 I've seen enough horror movies to know where this is going. Water damage, mold, and a ghost face in the wall...I see why it was so cheap. ^^;;
Needs to be torn down!
A Ghost face.....that of the previous tenant!
@@markfoster1520 well she's still alive but go off lol
@@mxrcvrii you missed the point, apartments become much cheaper if the previous tenant died, or if it's haunted
Listen sir I plan to move to japan don’t talk about ghost face in the wall
Your sticker falls because its above your stove, when you cook the steam hits it and makes it fall
Darian Grimes lmaoo
Thanks for the information ☺☺
these are my friends. The garbage cans... I have never before identified so strongly with a statement.
200/mo with a tatami room is a fantastic deal. Well done.
It is a good deal! I was just lucky to be in the JET Program and this apartment was chosen for me. Other ALTs in the island had even cheaper rent!
.... pretty spacious? bruh, that kitchen is massive by jp standard.
Frederico Louis exactly I pay $650 a month my shit at that huge
I pay 1350 in DC and my kitchen is a hallway, but it is stainless steel and regular apartment size stove (1 bd). We have shootings every other week, kidnapping and all the goodies that come living in any big city in the US.
I clicked on this video by mistaked, ended up staying because of genuine chill vibe. Then the background music took hold HARD and I watched the whole thing! Keep it up!
$200 a month is insanely cheap, even by american standards. Japanese standards, you're living there for practically nothing.
I'd say that's the other way around - by US standards, it's practically nothing. Based on Japanese standards, it's insanely cheap
Hardxcore Geekin' It w/ Major G assuming he lives in the south/rural areas and is comparing them to the more expensive areas in Japan. He isn’t considering expensive places in the US or he’d be thinking the other way around.
Sure is cheaper than my apartment especially for one this big. My apartment is kinda small but cute and easy to maintain. Its only 150 more dollars.
How about it's insanely cheap even by a third world country , 200 dollars it won't get you an apartment like that in Morocco .
I know...I am paying $1,350 for 1 bd in DC in an area that I don't feel safe in b/c there are shootings on weekly basis on top of mini street fights...toxic air, no recycling bins, even trash sometimes not picked up, noise and light pollution, the neighbors jamming music and threatened us when we asked him to turn it down...Her life in this video is like a dream come true right now. I am a month away from graduating with MS and just want to pack up and leave for some new faraway place.
I also taught at a Japanese English School one of the times my husband was stationed on Okinawa. We lived in military housing at that time, but when I was also in the USMC we lived on the economy in a Japanese apartment. Our rent was about the same as yours even though that was 40 years ago. Enjoy your time in Japan, I certainly did.
Even with the little damages, it looks homey and definitely spacious.
I can't be the only person who was shocked when she first showed the heater in the kitchen right?
Wow, what a charming apartment tour! I really appreciate that you showed the ups and downs. It's way bigger than I thought! It's the largest apartment that I've seen! I hope I can do the JET program soon! Also I love the music you used here!
Nice apartment! You need to research the ceiling issue because of mold.
A. GM . Had read that prefecture or village commissioner ones are making plans to remodel moldy places to keep tenants. (? International ME or Only in Japan?)
i'd just scrape it off then paint over it, easy job
Hey! I used to live there! It’s so crazy that even the furniture is the same. I used to sleep under that kotatsu sometimes lol thanks for making this, really brings back memories!
What, really??
Yes! I was there from 2011-2014! It was so nice to see your videos and be able to show my husband parts of my life in Tsushima. I really regret not taking more videos. Was Reiko-sensei still at Sasuna elementary as the English aid? Man I miss that island so much! I moved near Seoul after my 3 years, now back in the States.
@@melissadavison9053 omg! feel free to message me on Instagram @logansterr
Reiko-sensei was there during my first semester but then she left.
So cool that you found my videos! ❤️
I love it how she smiles in the video
I just found your channel, and I am a new subscriber.
Since I will never be able to travel overseas, I take great pleasure in watching videos such as yours. Thank you very much for taking the time to make these videos for people like myself who cannot travel such great distances to see this world of ours.
I was born Japan, at Tachikawa Air Base which is no longer there! I left when I was 6 weeks old!!! I think it's AWESOME that you get to live and work in Japan! I like your apartment!!!
I work in construction. You need to get that fixed. It's water damage and your seeling is beginning to get moldy. Thats really bad for your health.
You're in construction and can't spell ceiling?
Jeanette Phillips you don’t have to pass englisch to build a house
@@Ricardowieringa lol
It's nice to hear about rural Japan most videos are about the city life of Japan, but I find the country life of any country holds a lot of the heart and soul of the culture.
The mail box is such a smart design!
That's like a whole house. And for only 200 😯
That's a cute little place, I could live there and be happy. I wish I could get to Japan.
*introduces garbage cans* These are my friends
Me: Same
Really fun and refreshing tour. Glad you left the mould behind! x
I love the Japan bathtubs and wish I had one.
I did not realize Japanese apartments could be this big
I love that you didn't even clean the sticky food off the table. This is a REAL apartment tour.
These are my friends, the trashcans. Love it!
"Hi my name is Logan" shook me to the core, it's always so exciting finding another girl with my name aha
Whooa don't think I've met another girl named Logan!
@@logiebear I've only met one a few years ago at work but it's so rare ahaha
logiebear Our daughter’s name is Logan.
@@oksills everytime I introduce myself and someone mentions Logan being a boy's name I always respond with "yeah my parents were cruel" lol
"Pretty Cheap!" Ya think? That's a Steal!!!!🤑Great Apt! Thanks for sharing!
That mirror defogger is fantastic
Have a wonderful time teaching
Wooooow! That's a very cheap but very spacious apartment! I am sooooo jealous! I don't even mind the black mold. You can just use it as a storage room and use the storage room you showed instead. However, you mentioned that you don't live there anymore but I hope you did feel at home while living there.
Here are my Friends the Trash bins.. I felt that
Hi, from a fellow Logan! Awesome, house tour btw. Visiting Japan is on my dream list!
Thank you you have a beautiful space and you keep it up nicely. The music was very relaxing too.
Adorable :3
Definitely looking forward to more videos of your life in Japan and going through the jet program! I hope everything is going well for you!!! 💕
Thank you! Unfortunately I left the JET Program already, but I still have some videos about it that I'm planning. I had a great time during my year in rural Japan!
logiebear awww no worries!!! It seems like a really cool experience all the same! I wish I would have known about it when I was younger!!!
ceiling has water damage which makes the paper peel. that being said it prop. also had mold.
Let them check and fix it. Same for the kitchen that does look run down as well
Our apartment in Japan looked like this with two bedrooms, my roomate and I lived for five years together... fortunately our place is taken care of being me as an OCD ,no mold, no dust and our place is checked every three months...
The difference is that our washing machine is in the kitchen
I love the kitchen! It's so "homey"!
It's bigger as I saw before from other people's channeI. It's not very tiny and look's comfortable 👍
Tu Tuana Yeah I think I just got lucky, and it’s also because I’m in a really rural location!
@@logiebearok great👍 I wish always good luck to you. Greetings from Germany. Bye
Because this is nagazaki, very far away from tokyo
What kind of sane-minded person shows everything in the kitchen other than the two doors that open into the underground cavern system?
Hahahaha I thought the same, it is a storage unit, it's a typical Japanese apartment feature!
Love the video went to japan recently for my first time and enjoyed it I’d live there in a heart beat
this is so adorable, it’s so cozy and homey😭
This is an unrelated topic to me (though I love Japan) but you have such good energy I just had to subscribe 😂
Thank you so much!!
I love it, especially with this price!
People like you are angels your a good person way over there helping others your mother raised a good person mush love thanks nice kind lady
Wow, your apartment's HUGE! Nothing like the ones I've seen! Nice place!😊♥️
That water damage in the bedroom looks pretty serious. D:
Thanks I am moving in August so excited!!! Shimonoseki Yamaguchi! xx
Congrats, I'm excited for you!!
If you can get your hands on liquid starch, you can use it to stick your kitchen sticker up. Just use it like wallpaper paste.It will hold your sticker without permanently bonding it to wall. It will just easily pull off.
I put up a camera backdrop up in my bathroom. It has been there for a year.
Wow! Just reminds me of my grandpas house!!!
Thank you for this video!!
That toilets about things I used to use one Japan I think my next year's summer project will be to install one🙂🙂🙂
Jessie Cornelius your comment gave me brain damage...wtf did u say!!!???????
Nice! I was in jet too, possibly at the same time as you. I left in 2019 after a year. I am missing Japan now. Your apartment is so spacious and nice!
Love this video! Little cute home. A lot of people trying to live very lavish and out of their means which is not always the best idea! This video seemed very holsom and nice. Loved it and the hoem.seemed so cozy! I just read you dont live there anymore. Where ever you live now I hope you're enjoying your self! 😊
The table being a heater as well as a table, the air conditioning unit also being a heater, the toilet giving you clean water to wash with...Japanese are incredible people and so intelligent. In awe how far ahead Japan is then the rest of the world
alright get off it bud...
Thank you for the great tour! I'm applying for the JET program this year so I love seeing what other JET's situations are like, but most videos are from at least a few years ago. I hope to get a similar placement, something rural so that it is subsidized and so I can experience a real feeling of living in Japan! I'd love to hear more about your experiences.
You have a great calm energy, subscribed right away 💖 but like others have said, ask someone about how to fix that black mold problem, because you could get seriously ill :s
q-teaa I’m glad my videos helped you! Good luck with your application! Check out my Jet Program experience playlist, if you haven’t already, for more JET-related videos
So cozy looking
the dining table got me chills
aside from the mold and phallic shaped heater, i actually really enjoyed your vlog! you're one of those people who can do or say anything and it just comes off funny. :)
I'm in a city in the US midwest. My nephew has a smaller apartment in worse shape that rents for about $500/month.
Really cool. Thanks for sharing! 😊
$200 a month is insane for that nice if a place ANYWHERE!!! good for u
I landed here from my interest in ghost of Tsushima.
Really nice apartment and cheap 👍🏽 but try to get the landlord to fix those issues like now lol you’re very cute 🥰 and seem like a cool girl 😊 i bet your students love you, I want to go visit Japan 🇯🇵 in the future for the food and culture.
I focused on that pink object then something comes on my mind until you said it is a heater. 😊
Your so soft spoken🥰
Great apartment for only 200 dollars, congratulations!
This was very interesting! Thank you for sharing.
subbed, you seem so damn cozy and talk in a very relaxing way
I am an evil man, when i saw the back of the heater....
You're not alone
Thank budddha im not the only one
This is pretty awesome!
Me 4🤣
Honestly same I've never seen a portable heater that looked so suspicious.😂
9:00 Yeah who needs to go shopping when you're already well stocked with Christmas reindeer (ears?), hangers, and lightbulbs?
I LOVE JAPAN. BEAUTIFUL ROOMS.
thank you, please do more videos
It's funny out of all the tours of I have seen of Japanese apartments, nobody uses the fish griller, or knows how. BTW your kitchen is bigger then mine.
Dying slowly with that black mold 😱 so sad that owners of places like this dont care about the health of the renters
you can fix it yourself easy, just use mold remover then paint over it
Living in humid environments, mold is a fact of life. I life in FL and our sidewalks and patios get absolutely green. A pressure wash a few times a year takes care of that. Black mold appears in humid rooms like the bathroom & laundry room. I think I made a study of mold when I first moved in because I freaked out but it is easily cleaned.
The place on the floor is for storage space or it might be a crawl space. Also the floor table is a Kotatsu. Those are used for winter time.
OMGoodness I got the giggles with the garbage map. Wow. That’s awesome. So many details! But seriously how cool! Barely anyone around here recycles. It’s quite sad.
Love please don’t store your food in the fridge with the pot. Metals and or if it has Teflon can leech into your food. Glass... is perfect for storage. Large mason jars are great for that. Plus you don’t want to reheat your food over and over.
What a large place!
I love Japan. I wish I could live there. I adore the culture. I adore the curtsies they expect from each other.
When I met my husband I had my living room table set up just like your dinning table. I was 22 when I met him. He walked into my home and asked if my mum was coming home in time for dinner. I laughed. No why? He’s like wait. This is your home? I was like sure is? Why? He’s like it looks like an older adult lives here. I was like. What did you expect? He’s like at your age... sorry but way less than what you have. I was like... I don’t know if I should be happy or feel insulted.
We’ve been together for 19 years. Married for 16.
Have you ever watched the movie "Dark Water" (by Koji Suzuki) well, in the American version their is a big water stain that appears after Jennifer Connelly moves with her daughter. Well, that water stain in your apartment looks just like it.
The pink heater in the kitchen,I thought it was something else :-)😂😂😂
I thought it was a cat thing
Z Z Lol
It looked...naughty lol
Same here,
I thought it was a tower fan lol
When I first saw the pink heater in the kitchen, I was wondering what a pink traffic cone was doing there. That's a lovely, spacious apartment you have there. Yeah the ceiling needs to be repaired though.
Wow, that's a big kitchen!
sweet..but all those electric cords everywhere!..have OCD and don't like to see exposed cords..i have all my WIFI cords and modem in a wicker picnic basket with lid..you need some plants girl!..enjoyed the video.
Nelson A. Lol I never thought about a wicker basket for hiding cords! Good idea. It was temporary housing for the year for me so I never got to decorate very much or get plants to make it really feel like home, but I wish I could have! Thanks for your comment!
Putting them all in a basket is it absolutely fantastic idea!!!! I love it!
I have ocd I hAvE oCd OcD oCd shut the fuck up ...
I have ocd is the new I'm vegan
Again shut the fuckup
@@kkrnsr You sound like you need the pink heater.
That’s a beautiful apartment! I live in California, so an apartment like that would cost roughly $1,200 a month or more.😂 One of these days I would love to move to Japan with my family, until then I’m learning Japanese!
Chelsea Morris I’m back in California now too! I know what you mean. Apartments where I am in SF are way too expensive! Good luck with your Japanese studies 😊
realestate.co.jp/en/rent/view/259007 This is the usual price of an apartment of equivalent size in Japan.
Its really similar to my apartment in Shikoku Island . And I'm an English teacher in Japan too!
Holy crap that toilet is such a good idea!
We need that warming table thing in America
My cats would steal it from me.
It's a box. It's a blanket. It is warm. No doubt she would wait under it so she could ambush my toes.
Step 1) buy a table
Step 2) saw legs to appropriate height
Step 3) buy a separate table top
Step 4) buy a heated comforter
You're welcome
You can get silks and drape them on your ceiling
wow... you have a nice place... you should really get some local handiwork and artwork and make the second room and your room look nice! Right now it just feels like an apartment.. but you can really pretty it up with local Japanese decoration
Cute video ... you remind me of a person I know from Kansas. Thanks for the tour
Thanks for showing your appartement! It's so cute ändert looks really great. I'm so jealous that you only pay 200... We pay 750 for one room in Canada Alberta! Plus one bathroom
Have fun in Japan 😋
Thank you!!
750 is a good deal! Here, studio starts at $1600.
@@ingenueblue8914 yea, here is the same. We(me and husband) live in a tourist town (Alberta). 2-bedroom apartment costs 1600-1800$ per month. So we only can afford one room. We live together with two roommates.
Crazy.
@@Josephin. I'm in northern va/DC area. 2 bedroom is like $2300 and up monthly. I hate it! No reason it should cost so much.
@@ingenueblue8914 that's crazy, nobody can afford that
o. O I hate it, too. We are forced to live either in one room or have 2 or 3 jobs, which is....
I wonder where we are in 10 years you know.
How easy is it to get the landlords to fix the ceiling and doors? That ceiling looks like it could fall in, or kill you with mold.
I love it,I would live there if I was a teacher,the rent is awesome!!!!! The damage is mostly just cosmetic.
Lovely apartment, it's big too
$199/month??! That's the same price as my one-room dorm in South Tangerang, Indonesia! With one bathroom inside but shared kitchen in one house..
Wow! Not a bad price

@@logiebear i thought there would not be any cheap appartment in japan, that's awesome
If it’s with JET, it is most likely subsidized. I lived in a few inaka places, and even in rural Japan, such a place would run about 40,000 + a month.
