My teeny-tiny Japanese apartment TOUR!

[@doragami]

Honestly such a small space seems really comfortable to me. Maybe I'm weird, but having fewer possessions is somehow refreshing!

[@lesvideodefelix]

you aren't weird.. we are weird :p i like that small space too ,having less make everything more precious

[@ikAEmmA]

samee!!!

[@nitroxide17]

atelierdora I think it's cool!

[@nyranstanton203]

I agree, life is a million times easier without stuff.

[@litchtheshinigami8936]

atelierdora same.. my own bedroom is about the same size and i basically live in here (i only go out for school food or the toilet.. ) and i love love love small rooms and spaces.. like i am the opposite of a claustrophobic.. i live in holland and in the city so it is similar to japan space wise (like houses are usually quite small with the exception of the really expensive homes.. but compared to american homes the villas are still smaller.. i also dislike large streets like you would see in american suburban areas.. it makes me uncomfortable because it is too open.. i will literally have a feeling of continuous dread because everything is so far apart.. small spaces make me feel safe because i can see everything (yes i do have glasses) so i would totally love to live in an apartment like this

[@Brookenicoleeb]

For some reason I like being comfortable in closed spaces. I love that her bed is up and away yet still has so much space. If that had apartments like this in the states, I would live in it. I loooove it.

[@macandcheese7432]

Brookenicoleeg Gleason me too

[@avrilcuttecrap]

The tiny chair and the hand soap make make laugh SO much

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Hahahha they make me laugh too :') I love tiny chair!

[@johnilko2964]

Me too!!!

[@marytrett5081]

I'm used to living in small places and don't have claustrophobia, but I couldn't live in a literal closet. I saw your other vid. I love the way you are organized and minimal. Your apartment is very nice.

[@ktine05]

the toilet!! sugoi!! japan never fails to amaze me..lol

[@TokidokiTraveller]

hahaha it's a pretty crazy toilet! japanese innovation!

[@littleogeechee223]

This is really adorable! Reminds me of my oldest sister’s first place when she was 19. She had one big space which comprised small living room and kitchen, then, a small bedroom with a tiny bathroom just off it. I loved it! Such a cute place...

[@XxXDrummachineXxX]

So cool. Basically it's an adult fort.

[@geebster.]

Harry Potter had more room when he was living in a cupboard.

[@teapuck2530]

gopalakartik you crossed the line where exaggerating is funny tbh. Thats just way too much

[@hellyF3]

LousyAlex It was funny tbh

[@JexxyBarrios]

hahahahahah

[@robinlagelius]

omg the chair, i relate to your sense of humour

[@TokidokiTraveller]

hahaha i love tiny chair :') it's still there. every morning is a good morning when you wake up next to tiny chair

[@Ava_Orchid]

Design is so very important and can make a huge difference. The functionality of the apartment is amazing! I did see a person who had a rather large space and was paying $350 usd a month and utilities were included. It is funny how different places make rent so different. Adorable apartment!

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Yeah the difference in price everywhere is crazy! I know someone who is paying $400Australian for a tiny room with no windows, and I saw places that were super tiny with shared bathroom and kitchen for $800 too... I'm just thankful I found this place! Maybe the person you saw lived farther from the city or a main line? Otherwise that's such a good deal!

[@NintendoSushi]

Hey Emma! Just wanted to say I watched this video when it first came out about 6 years ago, and have come back every now and then since. I dunno why but these early uploads kinda became my comfort videos I watch when I’m feeling down/lonely etc. I first found your vids in the middle of high school, and as of this comment 6 years later am about to finish my undergraduate degree in chemistry! It’s been a blast watching your channel grow, and I want to say a big thank you for all the time and effort you’ve devoted to it. Proud to be a viewer throughout the years! All the best and good luck!

[@candycosmonaut]

frugal and functional .... yay Japanese architecture ... thanks for sharing your space !

[@makeupabsolu]

this "apartment" si so small that even a minimalist would look like a hoarder lol

[@iAmiliaBlue]

True story!

[@crissyreesman4523]

this tiny space is fasinating

[@mintsugas]

personally i love this, its so cosy and for just one person i think it's good

[@rachelh588]

Your apartment reminds me of something out of Dallas Corben's apartment in The Fifth Element. Very adorable.

[@victorjackson150]

The first place I ever rented in Japan as a single guy and it had 7 bedrooms, two reception rooms and dining and kitchen. It was so much work to keep clean and take care of. Everyone in the neighborhood called my house ‘the little green house’. I would have preferred this apartment!!!

[@nathanhorst8886]

I've seen a lot smaller apartments with no bathrooms. You would have to walk down the street to the library to do umm well you know and they closed at 7 in the evening. I love your Apartment.

[@Flowersindeed]

I love this video so much I don't know why just to see you having your own space and being happy puts a smile on my face!! love your home videos ..make me laugh..so cozy just knowing it's your space!!

[@cynthiak.4261]

So cute when you said you were scared to venture out to decipher the laundry situation. Awww!

[@joeypan5561]

Living big in a tiny house brought me here! I’ve also been through this kind of life during my student ages. Just cheering up mate! Be strong!

[@ClareAngel78]

I totally love your apartment love the back door I could see sitting there watching the rain. Though I was surprised to see that it was ground floor for some reason I thought it would be second or third. Enjoy your new home I hope that you make many happy memories there.x

[@conniecharley9092]

This is one apt to write home home about and then have a good time telling your friends back home and with you now.

[@LyricalPurity310210]

I love the apartment! Yes, it's small but I find it to be quite cozy! Perfect for one person. So happy I came across your channel-love your videos! Safe travels!

[@ChrysalisBound]

Sweet little apartment. That's awesome how you have a mini-split for heating and cooling. I love tiny spaces, although for now I live in a one-bedroom and it seems huge. The smallest studio I lived in was maybe 200 sq. ft.

[@abigailhumes4608]

You are a delightful tour guide. Your apartment seems very nice. I am glad you can appreciate such a tiny space. It is cute.

[@realzooflicks]

didn’t realize that this was an old video but im glad i gotta see this cool apartment :3

[@kgrant3184]

Thank you for your tour! Your chair in the corner reminds me of "The Friendly Giant", a kids' TV show that aired when I was young. There was also Rusty the Rooster, Gerome the Giraffe, and... oh! can't remember now. The unknown friend/s to curl up on the rocking chair, and maybe the neighbour... Anyone else actually remember? I digress. Since this was 5+ years ago, I hope that you had a WONDERFUL time! Cheers, All!

[@Music-and-anything]

Omg! I never lived in such a small apartment when I first came to Japan. I was so glad that I got a one bedroom that actually had a living room and dining area. I can never live in such a shoe box like that. You can do better than that. I thought HongKong was the worst. Lol

[@HappyQuailsFarm]

If you grow herbs or sprouts you can season your food with them, too.

[@joebug8984]

I love your positivity and cheerful acts

[@karenballerini7294]

This is such a sweet and honest video … made me laugh out loud though with the little brush that fell off the microwave… “it’s just there” lol 😂 too cute 🥰

[@SendFoodz]

having a small place like that keeps you creative

[@MauriceTarantulas]

Its not bad! Should have some apartments like this in other countries. If cheap and you are planning a beach/touristy holiday somewhere to crash etc perfect.

[@mahnazfaruq2215]

I loved your bed room it’s soooo cute 😘😘😘 everything in your apartment look like a fairytale, sooo cute 👍😘

[@Antony_Oscar]

love the bedroom bit. it saves space.

[@lucdallaire9047]

I remember. I was following you when you had this appartement. After you moved to a bigger one and i lost the page. Today i was curious to see if i could find the video again. Took lots of search. but, found your channel You had such a big journey since! I'm happy to see your doing good! :)

[@モナリザの微笑]

Did you spend last summer in your room? My advice: See 7:27. Below the sink, don't contain any food ! Especially on the first floor, roach come in from the hole of hose pipe.

[@モナリザの微笑]

+sin/cos/tan If you want to use storage space, the simplest way is to seal the hole by the packing tape (布テープ in Japanese and you can buy at 100 yen store). When you cancel rental and go out from current house, you can easily restore to original state by removing the tape.

[@モナリザの微笑]

+sin/cos/tan You can also use Sukima-pate. URL: www.cemedine.co.jp/product/domestic/duct/fill.html

[@TokidokiTraveller]

+sin/cos/tan Brilliant, thanks for the info! I'll go to my local 100yen store tomorrow and gets some, i so don't want roaches!

[@sianimese8912]

This is my first video i saw of you but i love your sense of humour and the hand soap, i laughed at that and i love the tiny apartment its so cute and looks comfy

[@cyberBIGGT]

I know this is an old video but good to see you happy and out of that last place! You're an amazing young lady

[@HappyQuailsFarm]

You are so fortunate to be there! Enjoy every moment!!

[@Fercoppelia]

the micro chair was my fav!!!

[@deborahrodriguez9551]

You must be a minimalist, I think that it's an interesting journey you are following.

[@1ma1ya1]

I like the toilet idea!

[@ohannarose1899]

OMG this video gives me life! You should totally do a questions video! I'd love to know how the process of moving to Japan went! Like how you pay bills, get around town, get a job, etc! :)

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Awww! Thanks so much! maybe after I hit a certain number of subscribers or something I'll do a Q and A video or something, but that's a great idea :)

[@ohannarose1899]

Yeah, girl! I'm a fellow actor and Japan-lover myself, so I LOVE watching these! :)

[@epicepiqueproductions886]

OMG SECRET TOILET!!! When you have guests and they really need to go to the toilet , just say 'oh I don't have a toilet. I just go to mcdonalds and use the toilet there.'

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Hahaha yeah I don't want anyone using my secret toilet! I'll send them to the convenience store near my house ;) good tip! hahaha

[@epicepiqueproductions886]

+Tokidoki Traveller Haha lol ;)

[@XSemperIdem5]

Just make it like a scavenger hunt. Haha

[@leavemealonelmao]

I started a binge through these yesterday! This video is so cute and makes me giggle so much! I had no idea about the toilet, or even where you slept xD So many funnies throughout, I'm going to be keeping up with these from now on! :D

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Yay! Thanks Mikki! Love making these videos too :) haha the toilet is very funny, and my bed is super comfy. Thanks for watching! :)

[@sioni725]

Although I've been watching your videos for a while now, I've only just thought of a place you can store your make up!! If you buy a tray or a shallow box, you could put your make up in it and store it on top of the plastic chest of draws!!

[@milosjoksimovicjogz5657]

I love your videos. You are such a positive person. And I believe people(like myself) can learn so much from you. 😊

[@nomdeplume7537]

Any of these tiny apartments that I've seen, the space in the refrigerator and actually total overall space for storage being as minimum as it is. A lot of your groceries and such it looks as though you have to go to the store frequently, you might be able to get a day or two's worth of food into the refrigerator.

[@AliciaGilbride]

Just stumbled upon your channel and I am so happy I did! Love your vibe! This apartment is adorable :)

[@TokidokiTraveller]

aw thanks so much! sending good vibes your way! :)

[@ajreyes8743]

Omg !! So cute !! Love your sense of humor !! Very energetic and fun lil tour,

[@elsklingen]

Cook the vegetables on top of the potatoes 😃 they Cook a little faster, so wait a couple of minutes before you put them in. and Google "One pot pasta" love your videos 😍 💝 greetings from Stockholm Sweden 🌼

[@jaysevenx9994]

"This is beep boop so when people ring the ding dong" haha 😂 I like your sense of humor.

[@tokyoyojohanna2989]

Oh I've got the same chest of drawers. Nice to se your place, I really like the cool sci-fi toilet and the sleeping loft!

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Hooray for Nitori drawers! haha so cheap and convenient :) and love sci fi toilet, sci fi toilet is my hidden friend

[@courtneydurham8429]

That bathroom is just one step above a bathroom lavatory. Woof. Bless you.

[@Frohnileini]

That tiny chair in the corner just made my day

[@feebasymilotic]

I'm totally in love with your apartment!! Maybe I'm weird but it's seems perfect for me

[@PinkFrecklWavez]

THE CAT SHAPED BAG!!!!! I WANT ONE!!!! It's so cute....

[@kme3894]

watching this as I eat dinner and in your kitchen cupboard I spot the exact same olive oil I have on my table right next to me, right now... also, watching this because I am about to move into a tiny studio flat and looking for some inspiration :)

[@fruitoson4227]

THAT TOLIET IS THE COOLEST THING IVE SEEN

[@Beffinee]

Secret toilet omg???

[@TokidokiTraveller]

+Beffinee Hahaha I love secret toilet, I don't know if i will ever want to go back to normal toilets after this...

[@1blisslife]

+Tokidoki Traveller I love the tiny chair in your upstairs master bedroom & the plant in your sink! That gives your apartment character;)!

[@blankssings6303]

I love how everything is so tiny and cute espacially the tiny chair made me giggle

[@SacchanXD]

I love all your little laughs and giggles haha😁💕💕

[@Oliviasdr]

tiny and tidy which are just perfect !!

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Yay! it is easy to make this place messy though haha, if i put anything on the ground, suddenly i can't walk anywhere! so it helps me keep it very tidy :)

[@mlem6951]

This now the 4t time i watch this video, because it was recommended xD, and on christmas, nice. I love your'e channel :D. Merry Christmas

[@thegoodmuzak]

"I feel pretty safe bc it's Japan." I love this. brb moving to Japan

[@katelund4152]

This is so adorable and hilarious at the same time!

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Yay! Love ya Kate, thanks for giving it a watch!

[@johnilko2964]

Perfect tiny house!

[@ИванДылов-в3е]

That apartment is so tiny, but so cool! I love it!

[@fromgermanytokorea]

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Yay! Glad you enjoy them :D

[@CalderoHechicero29]

Omg I love it! It is soooo pretty! Also you won a subscriber with the magnet on the microwave

[@flashgordon6510]

I love your Gudetama kitsch!

[@themanjaebla]

Okay so it's a fantasy of mine to live in a foreign country with an unfamiliar language/culture. It's also my fantasy to live in a tiny house and focus on working/hobbies with the financial freedom that tiny houses come with. You look like you're living my dream! Of course this dream comes with a lot of challenges 0.o guess I should watch the rest of your videos to see what it's like...

[@Future.Endeavored]

I personally couldn't live in a tiny space like that.

[@XxXDrummachineXxX]

What made you want to move? And how much did it cost. Looks awesome

[@MasterAdelaide]

This is fantastic! Are you going to put some posters on the walls and stuff to make it even more homey?

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Unfortunately they're suuuuper strict about putting things on the walls! They highlighted that rule in red pen and told me three times haha, so I'm going to try not to put anything on the walls, but I'm so tempted!!

[@MasterAdelaide]

Aw man, that's an annoying rule. Ah well, it's great nonetheless

[@roenkozekadam]

I think this is the coolest apartment ever. Im super jealous!

[@TokidokiTraveller]

+Adam Clark Thanks so much! I'm so happy I managed to find this place :)

[@roenkozekadam]

+Tokidoki Traveller It has such character! thats how a home should be

[@salmasiguini9891]

seing howa much u'r grateful and happy about having ur apartment (even if it's so small) warms my heart

[@iPartySober]

Gosh you've come so far, Emma. You beautiful soul, you. 🙌

[@Geneticjackpot]

I love this little place, my cats would hate it but I love it :) also, gonna get some air plants, thanks for the idea!

[@annaliseyau]

the small buttow is for not give people to come in and the biger one is for to talk to the people and also i love your vidos!

[@mmapple1800]

Love your apartment, look cozy and very lovely.

[@lisaspikes4291]

Unfortunately, since I’ve lived in a two story, two bedroom house for the last 18 years, I’d have a difficult time downsizing to this apartment. But it would have been perfect when I had just gotten out of the Navy. When everything I owned fit into a sea bag and two large plastic bags!

[@kawaiikowai08]

Awesome! I really want a lift bedroom ! Could you do a video about your futon? Kinda weird I know, but I really want to buy one, wondering how thick they normally are and how heavy. Does it help your back, etc. :D

[@miligutierrez9724]

Wow!!!! So organized 💕❤️

[@sdestinychild]

I hv never seen a person as positive n lively as you.. I would sub a million times if I could

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Your comment has actually made me smile so much, and I was on the phone with my mum and read it out to her and we were just amazed by how sweet it is hahaha, thank you so much and you've made my night!

[@sdestinychild]

+Tokidoki Traveller I'm jumping from seeing ur immediate reply

[@sdestinychild]

+tell me why r u on WhatsApp?

[@TokidokiTraveller]

hahaha I just happened to be online and on the phone when it popped up! and no sorry, not whatsapp!

[@daisyrivera3053]

It is nice OMG ur so happy enjoy it !!😁

[@user-cs9of2xd2d]

I didn't know an apartment could be so small. If it's not too personal, how much does it cost per month?

[@TokidokiTraveller]

hi! I pay 69 000 a month, which is expensive compared to other places but this is good for me as it is foreigner friendly, only month long contracts at a time and is close to a main line! and no key money, gift money, and all utilities and wifi included in the price :) sorry i'm just cutting a pasting this response because its a common question. and i know somewhere out there, there are smaller apartments, but this one sure does feel pretty tiny :')

[@pagurotraduzioni202]

Can you use how much ever energy (electricity/gas) you want/need or there are limits? Interesting video, thanks.

[@elodieelvira7913]

holy crap ￥69,000？！？！I hope you are 5 minutes walk to Shibuya or Ikebukuro for that price?1 I pay 75,000 for a 2 bedroom apartment

[@TheMechanicalGirl999]

what!?! I am getting ROBBED in the USA! I pay 157945.06 yen ($1550) A MONTH and live a 10 minute walk from the train and am surrounded by like 40 buses!!!

[@leasomeya1139]

Cute place. Hope that you are near the Station

[@TEO.187]

your home is so cute!!

[@irenechan5831]

Way to go, girl!!!

[@sukkiebe]

So cozy!

[@TammyMcGowan]

You could get grow lights, and grow African violets...Have flowers even in the winter...They are easy to start from leaves...P.S.I hope you don't walk in your sleep...I used too...The way your ladder is could be dangerous..

[@TW-um5hs]

Your apartment is soooooo cute

[@marzipin]

also i just found your channel and i looove your personality~ subscribed !

[@TokidokiTraveller]

and thanks!!!! hahaha thanks for watching and welcome! :D

[@mayab0000]

"and you can put it on the microwave and it'll just .kliiiiirp.. Fall down" HAHAHAHAHAH

[@funnystuff1614]

I saw the little chair before you pointed it out and once you laughed I had to as well. hahaha! 😉

[@kathleenlock8963]

I could easily adapt to a small apt., but I think something this small would get depressing after a while. It would feel like living in a closet, and due to no storage space you'd have to shop more often.

[@ichigoflavored]

love what you did with your space even if it's super tiny. i like how you repurpose items like that little table for your mug, and putting that plant in the toothbrush holder! so creative and cute! would you be able to do a separate garden / planting video? i don't know much about gardens / planting but would love to see more.

[@TokidokiTraveller]

Hello! Haha i love this tiny space! It lets my brain work harder to try to figure out how i can use the space best ^^ Yes! I think i shall do an updated apartment tour soon because i have changed some things :) and i will touch on gardening in that video! and I use a mini tripod and just hold it by the prongs when i hold it like a selfie stick! But now i have actually got a new camera, but i still use a mini tripod as a selfie stick :') it is easier than a stick because i can just pull our the prongs and have it free standing so fast!

[@ichigoflavored]

Yay! Can't wait for the updated video! :) I think what's great with tiny spaces is that you can rearrange it often and it's not as difficult as organizing a bigger space. and oh duh! why didn't I think it was a tripod? lol that makes sense. and i just noticed your new camera video now, hehe. Going through your playlist, your videos are lovely to watch. have a great day! ^^
