    Hello people of the internet, I wanted to make a formal apology for not taking off my shoes in my apartment. I'm aware of the rules and culture of where I live, but when I first arrived, I wasn't. It was my first week in Tokyo when I filmed this tour, I was so excited to document my first apartment in Japan, so when preparing for the video, cleaning my space and getting ready, it completely slipped my mind that I didn't need to be wearing shoes in my apartment, as the main reason for me wearing shoes was because it completed my outfit. (lol) It's a really innocent mistake and hope I don't come off in any way as an entitled American. I'm merely trying to share my experiences from my travels. I hope you guys understand and don't get any misconceptions about me as a person! 😓
    - Megan

      Also, be wary of your landlord seeing this, proof that you kept your shoes indoors can be used to justify not giving you your deposit back for being a dirty tenant.
      I hope you have a good time in Japan and get to enjoy good food!

      UPDATE your video and apologize. and show your fans you corrected everything from storing all your shoes at entrance shelf. dont leave shoes in your living area. and don't drink your cartoon juice directly from it and poor into a cup or a mug. otherwise you look stupid young utuber from low class!

    Showers in Japan are not meant to stand in, hence its shortness. You sit on a stool to shower, then relax in the bath tub after.

    • @lucashell2619
      @lucashell2619 3 роки тому +192

      While it's true they relax in the tub as you say, the bathroom is still really small for locals too and it's simply for the space problem. They separate toilet from bathroom in house, but they tend not to when it comes to hotel (inexpensive ones) and some apartments for the small space.

      A lot of showers are designed to be used whilst standing up. That’s why they put the holder for the showers up higher.
      There is actually another shower holder higher up on the other wall that she could stand upright whilst using. Not sure how she didn’t see it.

      It's a good apartment for those who spend most of their time doing field work/ in the office and only need an apartment to sleep and spend the night. It must be relatively cheap so you can save quite some money. But yeah if you spend most of the time inside this especially during the pandemic then it will make you feel claustrophobic and depressed.

    During strawberry season they can go around 400 to 500 jpy, but don't buy the large ones which are meant for gifting, those could go up to 3000jpy. ... in japan you have to keep an eye out for seasons, because different seasons fruits can be cheaper during the correct time of the year. Like peaches are cheap at end of year and then disappear near at the start of spring... you probably already know that after a few months though, so this comment is for people who just moved here.

Besides to sleep and the occasional weekend to stay in. I would say during the pandemic the larger western style apartment would be more ideal.

    It's really cute and I love it! But I wish I could decorate it. You need art! You should add shelves in the space above your shoes, and a shelf in your pantry because there's wasted space there. If you're not allowed to drill or attach things to walls, you could use tension rods/shelves, or command strips and products to hang some little shelves. Then it'd be like having more closet space for clothes or dishes and what have you. You could hang art in front of the shelves to hide clutter, or at least put something over your bed, like some Bradon Hoover art or something colorful and abstract. I love how organized the space is, though, and Shibuya is lovely! Great tour! Thank you for sharing it with us. ❤️

      uuh monthly rent of 70k which sounds expensive, and it might be. But I'll add the stuff you get for that pricetag:
      -washing machine
      -full basic furnishing (bed, a desk and table)
      -an IH stove (like the one in the video)
      -location that is basically next to the main road, has jp bank, a few restaurants, metro station within 5 minutes of walking
      -within 10 minutes walk to two frescos (supermarkets)
      -within 15 minutes walk to JR Kyoto station
      all of which may arguably be worthwhile if you use those on a daily basis I suppose 😅
      P.S. its a pseudo school dorm as well so that might have pumped up the price a bit as well.
