Weeding of any kind is not fun, you guys! The rocks outside looks neat and tidy. You are such a hard worker and go getter. We need more people like you.
I’m a permaculturist and creative, with two teen/young adult offspring and we’re hoping to one day get to Japan to experience the environment and wonderful culture. What a gorgeous international community you’re creating there. ❤
My mother was from northern Japan and I have visited a number of times. My wife and I are considering moving to Japan when we retire and possibly getting an Akiya house. You did a fantastic job on this one.
The work you did on the front garden transformed the area from overgrown to a peaceful and beautiful space. The kitchen cabinets are wonderful. Simple yet elegant. Thank you for sharing this follow up about the home.
WOW! You all did a fabulous job. The house looks amazing! I can’t believe how wonderful the front area looks. I remember it was completely overgrown and unruly. Totally love it! 😊
Thank you for the update. The house looks wonderful. I like the light diffuser panels that bring natural light into the interior. Wai Hon and Chee Wang very funny acting. 幸せな日々をたくさん過ごしてください
Absolutely love all you videos! The view and the sounds of nature in the background just draw me in...would love to see a video on making tea and sitting and listening to the sounds outside on that amazing porch...
I wonder what was the cost to renovate it? Did you get help there easily or was it all DIY? Overall, it came up good and the front part, exceptionally cleaned out. Congratulations indeed 👍👍
I saw your earlier video about this house, for $23,000 it was a steal. The place looks beautiful, even if you have to put in a little work to get it back to where it looks now. The inside looked so nice before, It didn't look like you have to do too much remodeling on the inside of the house.
Hi I really appreciate showing us the back countryside of Japan. I wish one day I can take a vacation or afford to buy a small property on countryside and take a vacation between california and japan
You guys did an amazing job on the house. Do you guys plan on getting a low platform bed? I would also put an island in the kitchen for cooking . Get some bar style chairs for it so you can use it to sit at and eat and entertain and then get a smaller dining table for the corner. Since the walls and windows soften the lights, I would get white light for the inside of some of the rooms to make it brighter.
This is insane and very cool! In germany if you buy a house for 23K you get a molded, old rundown building which you can pretty much just tear down (if you find one at all).
Oh wow, that looks really nice. I was hoping the house would retain a lot of its original charm. It has also been so nice to see other people volunteering with you, I would imagine it is lonely there sometimes. Thanks for the update.
Please excuse this late response to your new home wishing I could have been there to offer a helping hand. I was in Japan decades ago and always wanted to return.
It would be interesting to know how much the renovation cost in the end. But its anyway incredible to buy such a house for only 23k USD, here in Switzerland you might get a garage for that place or a parking lot in a parking house. Even in the town I live, with 10k citizens, the square meter costs around 1500-2000CHF.
Yes, it does look very good!!! But (constructive criticism here) the kitchen sounds like you are eating from the middle of a gymnasium. Hang some art work on the wall and that should make a great improvement!!!

That outside area looks so clean and tidy.
Beautifully remodeled and turned this property into a gem.

What a beautiful investment. Thank you for sharing.
Can you give us an approximate amount spent for the updates? This is a gorgeous home in a beautiful location.

What a great job you did cleaning the place up - YOU'RE HIRED! seriously if you want to help me buy such a house.
🎉 Congratulations
Thank you!

OH wow, what a beautiful result. nice work, how did you find this place please? thank you
Thanks! I found this place for my friend through the carpenters who worked on the first house

Wow, excellent job! Very motivating to see what you did with this place, well done.
Thank you very much!
Your friends are funny 🤣
I’m glad you found them funny ☺️
Beautiful.
This looks so amazing. You guys did such a great job.
Thank you so much!
You did a good job, looks nice. On the kitchen you can install more cabinets. On your toilet do you have a septic system or something else?
Hi! Yes this house came with a sceptic tank with filtration system (3 tanks with different bacteria)
Beautiful!!!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!

hi, i'll be in Japan in mid september. Could I pay a visit to your place if time permits?
Hi! I’m normally quite busy so I can’t accept visitors for now. The guesthouse is open for bookings though: www.airbnb.com/h/ryunohara
@@Ryunohara I see…ok noted.
