But that's just because I can't imagine sleeping in such a small and dark room. Also some plants and wall decorations would help very much :)

I've noticed that about the toilets over there as well. Having an unusual design where the fresh water pipe comes out over the cistern tank and then pours water in via an open hole into the cistern tank. I'm guessing that plumbing regulations in Japan are stricter and this arrangement is considered more hygienic and reduces risk of contamination of the fresh water supply keeping a greater barrier from the foul water.

Cool space. Personally I'd put some warmer light sources in the kitchen instead of plain white lights and maybe leave the doors to the living room and the tatami(?) room open so that some of the natural light from outside can flood in. I'd remove or move the coach in the living room as it seems too big for the room. If you didn't have a need for a vlogging area, I would've used that room as the bed room, just because there is some natural light there, and used the other room as storage or guest room or something. The kitchen seems empty, maybe divide the room with a plant or something.

Megan Flanagan my understanding is that usually there isn't central heating in most Japanese homes so heating a smaller room is easier than attempting to heat a large space.

I don't know how tall this guy is but I'm 6'4" I can tell you most modern places like around Tokyo he will be fine, but if you visit people's homes or go into the older areas then watch your head. I love being in Japan though. I love the culture, the age of the towns, and the architecture. My father in law lives in a rural area and I got to drive through the rice farms areas to get to the city. Of course, I had to visit Tokyo and Akihabara and most of the public places are tall people friendly. Many of the lower door ways are there for a reason. They are to force you to bow your head as you enter a room, which is why many homes have low clearance door ways. I highly recommend visiting Japan, it helps to go with someone that speaks the language (my wife is Japanese) but if you stick to the major areas of Tokyo they have multilingual signage pretty much everywhere. But speaking with clerks and such does require knowing some conversational Japanese. And the light rail system there is incredible, mind blowing.

It's good to see you are settling in. Seeing you sorting out the trash reminds me of when I first arrived here in Japan and had anxiety about how to put things in the correct places. I currently have 6 garbage cans to deal with all my separate kinds of garbage. I live in the countryside of Kyoto. I have a fairly old house with three tatami rooms but the tatami is pretty old and worn out. Just be on the look out for things like Dani 'tatami mites' since your building is old. One great thing about my house is the washlet. It has the heated seats, which are a saviour in the winter. But there is only one aircon/heater unit so its pretty difficult to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I have been enjoying your videos chronicling your move from Korea to Japan. I have put Hiroshima on my list of places to visit in Japan. Hope you are able to sort out the lights and the judo situation soon.

The countryside (inaka) of Japan has its good points and its bad. Good points include how simply beautiful it is, the people are super friendly and helpful so I have made many friends, my students are mostly sweet and spend their free time riding their bikes, playing baseball and hunting for bugs in the creeks and rivers. Bad points are the copious number of bugs in the summer and the freezing cold in the winter as well as not having many available activities for people who aren't married with kids or elderly. However I am lucky that I live within a 2 hour distance of the metropolitan areas like Kyoto city, Osaka and Kobe.

20009Erika​ I live in France, the average size of a house/apartment is (way) smaller than in America (if it's where you live), and it's also a matter of tastes and habits too, because I can't stand an empty home and I don't need much more space than my bedroom's, so yeah ^^

eleonora giannetti I think it's because both are european countries ? France and Italy have more or less the same average height, while in Japan people tend to be smaller, or in America taller (like, I'm average height in Europe, but I'd be considered short/mid-short in America and tall/hella tall in Japan) Each country designs it's apartment based on it's average height, so it's not surprinsing to find people that live in countries where people are taller than in the other country, thinking that the house/apartment is too small, and the same goes in the other way That's also a matter of lifestyle and tastes, there are people that like to move around, need/want space and light, and other people (like me) who enjoy small and/or dark rooms and don't need/want much space (I'm kind of afraid of big rooms, I somewhat find small, dark and fresh rooms reassuring)

The clock... does it say "radio controlled"? If it does it's probably syncing with one of the UHF or VHF time keeping frequencies, like in the US... We have WWV that since a ping tone at the top of each minute. Once you get the batteries into a new clock it sort of looks for specific radio signals and when it finds the right one it will sync with it.

Hey! You're in Japan. I remember viewing many of your blogs while you were in South Korea. Your advice about teaching over seas was very helpful and inspiring. I'm a bit of a coward and decided so far not to get into the program. One day I will. However, it was very good to see you doing your thing. God bless with everything Red Dragon. Plus, wow Hiroshima! How surreal to be there were the hydrogen bomb was dropped...must been emotional that first day; a spirit and soul connection that cannot be explained just experienced...How blessed you are to be able to experience this in your lifetime. Peace be with you and your family. -Ant Valentine
