I love Japanese architectural designs! They are so minimalistic yet functional, so clean and bright.

[@tashekahyatt8435]

i love the look... just dont like how the door directly from the kitchen opens the bathroom...that's quite unusual

[@magesticbaby]

You’re probably not going to believe this but I used to live here a while back! It was so nostalgic looking at the apartment, not much has changed! Thanks for sharing and I hope you’re enjoying Iwakuni as much as I did :)

[@MarcyKMomBOSS]

This tour was incredibly interesting. I was a little shocked at how different sine things were. Like the tub and how shallow the sink was. But I was glued to this entire video so great job on your tour!!

[@holystictarot-prive]

It’s interesting to see how Japanese apartment are. But I’m shocked like how the door from the kitchen directly open to the bathroom 😭

[@cedellarose]

Functional, comfortable and traditional. I love that your walls are full of life!

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Thanks Rachel! ❤️

[@channellou8832]

That's a nice apartment you got. By the way, the flower you have at your entrance seems like Chrysanthemum or mums. ''Kiku'' in Japanese

[@jadelee289]

I just found your channel the other day and have been binging all your videos since 😂 I’m so thankful for your channel, I’m about to graduate highschool and I’ve been heavily interested in becoming an ALT in Japan after becoming a teacher in America for a few years. Your videos help me a lot. Thank you so much!

[@FernandaGouveia]

You have such a nice apartment! I love the "travel memorobilia" idea! And I like blue a lot too (:

[@HamilamTV]

This was such a lovely tour of how apartments in Japan look. I like the utilization of space rather than the cookie cutter ones we have here in the US . great vid🎉

[@shaniquethomas702]

You’ve grown so much , it’s beautiful ❤️ I’m so proud of you 😘 Your apartment is beautiful btw. Think I’m gonna use the idea of motivational quotes for my own home. Xoxo 💋

[@Salma.lgs.]

This is a great video! I really enjoyed the tour hehe such a nice little place And btw you're beautiful😍

[@41pousaliray33]

Is there any option where you can just avoid the apartment your school gives and rent another one you like?

[@likethedrum]

Love your apartment! So cute. Also! A complete steal. Couldn’t find something like this price

[@stargazingo]

I absolutely love your energy and your tour!! Love the positivity radiating from you as well!! Thank you for this lovely 💙💙

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Thank you so much!!

[@cbstudios4122]

Omg the tubs look so different there. I would be so scared to go in that lol. Overall Nice tour, very interesting 🧐

[@LivingfortheCity]

Your place a nice size! Did it come furnished already? That’s awesome! I love the interior design of the place. Those Japanese sliding doors are fabulous...so traditional.

[@INSPIRATIONAVENUE]

The interior design of the place is great, traditional Japan I have to say 🤗 Thank you for this 😘

[@AnimeSisters]

I love your motivational walls 🥰! Your apartment looks nice. Having a bathroom in your kitchen is definitely going to get some getting used to 😳😂😂

[@aniquemckie3252]

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Awww thank you sooo much ❤️

[@cassandraminott4275]

Cute apartments😍....baby girl I'm super proud of all the growth you have made🤗.... lol was that a sink I saw on top of the toilet??

[@antoniobuys359]

I think its a smart idea to save water, let the sink water fill the cistern 😀

[@JessMee]

Wooooow. Your apt is so different. The kitchen. Bro the kitchen

[@IreneElla]

Wow Japanese architecture is really interesting. I've never seen a bathtub like that. Was that a sink on top of the toilet? I like how you made the apartment your own with your Jamaican flags and motivational quotes on the wall. Your bedroom had really nice natural light! I love that. ❤

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Yes there is indeed a sink on top of the toilet lol Japanese toilets are very advanced that way 😂! Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@SimplyTrudz]

Great video! New subbie here! I’m also a Jamaican KZbinr living in Asia (China).

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Ohhh I'm gonna check you out ❤️

[@mu5iczan]

Such a great video! I totally agree with you that a empty wall is a sad wall also I think the flower could be a chrysanthemum🤔

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Thank you so much! I'm totally gonna have to research it because it's dying on me and making me so sad!

[@latanyasimms1210]

WE LOVE YOU TOMI!!

[@TomisWorldxEli]

THANK YOUUUU!

[@asuranrocks]

your apartment is pretty huge! ;D

[@sashanastitches]

Very nice apartment and nice tour...its quite spacious compared to others I've seen in other parts of Japan

[@sfox18]

Hi Sashana

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Thanks for watching! Also, i agree that it is quite spacious in comparison to some I've seen in the Tokyo area lol

[@franfran57]

love your channel!!

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Thank you so much!!

[@sakura66ish]

Did the apartment come furnished? What do you have to buy? Also new subscriber. Loving your videos

[@swisdom9117]

This was such a fun video. Your apartment has a lot of stuff. Question, do you ever plan on coming back to Jamaica to live? You'd have to move / sell lots of stuff :(

[@cherisepeters665]

Did the apartment come fully furnished, semi furnished or you bought your stuff.

[@alicea309]

Hi Tomi! I love your apartment! What can you tell me about ALT and the possibilities of bringing their family along with them to Japan?

[@TomisWorldxEli]

I am pretty sure once you're married your husband can come along with you and if you have a child or some very close relative like that then you are allowed to take them. However, you have to pay for their airfare and all their cost on your own

[@EvelynTheOdd]

I don't know how far out in the countryside you are, but this seems like a pretty big apartment for the money! Thanks for sharing

[@TomisWorldxEli]

I'm very far out in the Inaka lol. It's about a two hour flight to Tokyo which I think I pretty far lol.

[@opaljohnson4762]

Nice little pad Tomi, and very organized.

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Do you remember the motivation quote you mentioned in another video ? It was a Frederick Douglass quote on confidence . Do you remember it ? I really want to write it down

[@jahna.h]

[@theesociallifeee3130]

Hey girl! Where the mirrors already in your house or did you purchase them? Also, what prefecture do you live in?

[@TomisWorldxEli]

[@japanesesmiles8515]

Thank you for sharing😊🇯🇵🌸

[@TomisWorldxEli]

My pleasure 😊

[@MaganoASMR]

Thank you so much for this video. Can you please share companies on which I can find apartments, I got an employment offer with Joytalk and I am from Namibia, wanted to see if I can get my own apartment online and pay in March when I arrive. Hopefully I get an apartment which does not require me to pay for key money and realtor money.

[@justinphillip403]

Big ups from a Trini. I'm looking to move to Osaka at some point. Question, what city are you in and do you find it easy to build friendships with locals? My next question is how are the markets, are you able to find Plantains, Guavas, and Mango at the local store?

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Lol hi there Justin! Thanks for watching I Live in Yamaguchi prefecture and I do have a hard time making friends lol but I spoke more in detail about this in another video of mine 'what I wish I knew before moving to Japan." Also plantains are really hard to find here and I've never seen a guava lol mangoes are also super expensive for some reason and if you are really interested in the markets you can check out my Japanese grocery shopping video for more information and to see for yourself!!

[@c.taylor5347]

I may 300% be stupid and just missed it, but where were you assigned? I am thinking of applying this year and am trying to think of what locations I want to put down. Your videos are great BTW!

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Lol I live in Yamaguchi prefecture! If you like beaches warm weather and barely any snow in the winter time then this is the place for you! But it's also very very rural lol like a 2hour flight to Tokyo! Also thanks for checking me out!!

[@c.taylor5347]

Tomi's World Ahhh thank you! 💙

[@kbfoundation7102]

this voice over look like a bad anime dub lol I love you anyway Tomi

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Lol I don't understand 😩😩😩🤣🤣🤣

[@JessMee]

Your shower is right by your kitchen. Woooow

[@JlaHawkins]

it’s nice! what’s the translation of that price to american dollars? the bamboo floors are really cool even though you said they’re hard to clean lol.

[@TomisWorldxEli]

It's $412 I think lol

[@morganandrea9323]

Shout out to the Maggie's seasoning 🤣😭

[@TomisWorldxEli]

I took some initially but when it was done I had some sent to me

[@polinachervova818]

[@miriamlagomarsino9770]

Do JET teachers pay for there apartments or is it provided through the program ?

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Every situation is different so it could go both ways

[@ChinenyeNzeama1]

What program are you in? Could you please explain the process and your experience

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Hi love, I'm on the JET PROGRAM. I did a video on it if you don't mind scrolling down my channel a bit! Thanks for watching!

[@tammydicksonmusic7119]

Which part of Japan are you? Does it get cold there?

[@TomisWorldxEli]

I live in the Chugoku area and to doesn't get very cold here (most times) but it snowed recently so what do I know lol

[@originalkingdomhearts]

I wanted to ask, did you ever have issues with bringing everything you needed with you to Japan? I have quite a few things I would like to bring with me, but they are electronics.

[@TomisWorldxEli]

I didn't bring much electronics with me to be honest. I just took my laptop and phone and i had no issues. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful with this one!

[@originalkingdomhearts]

[@egillogly1]

As a former JET myself (Yurihama Cho, in Tottori Ken) 2004-2005 - you had me cracking up so much! I too inherited a lot of stuff from my predecessor. You really had a traditional Japanese apato! I piled those futons 2-3 high ba ha ha ha. Loved the perfume collection too. Makes me remember when I would wear some to my Jr. High. Some of the students actually asked me why I wore it. And yes, tatami floors are super hard to keep clean. Stay safe there during this pandemic, sister! Thanks for the great video! Ganbatte kudasai!

You’re saying what you dislike about the apartment @ the end... but can I just say I hate the fact that the toilet is kept separate from the shower 😭 mi bex and annuh me

[@TomisWorldxEli]

lol i actually don't mind that lol. I grew up in a big family where someone always wanted to use the toilet as soon as you start taking a shower so that's super nice for me lol!

[@jahna.h]

Tomi's World that really makes sense. But often times I use the toilet then head straight in the shower so yeah 😭 and sometimes I’m bathing and feel the need to release 💩 😢

[@TomisWorldxEli]

Omggg 😩😩🤣🤣

[@noblewolfwriting7526]

So you pay equivalent to $450/mo for all that, in Japan? That’s a damn steal.

[@TomisWorldxEli]

lol being Jamaican I don't think so but I've seen what y'all deal with in the states so....lol

[@TheseEyesSeeDarknessClearly7]

Yeah nowadays you can’t live on your own in the US. And if you do expect to pay a premium. It’s really hard in the US for new adults right now. $450/month is a dream
