  • EDIT: FAQ!!
    Approx. 69 000 yen conversions:
    USD - $680
    AUD - $883
    GBP - 510
    If this seems like a lot of money to you, please watch until the end of the video where I explain why I am ok with that price!
    "Where do you store your clothes?"
    There is a plastic chest of drawers I have bought that sits underneath the table!
    "what's in the cupboard next to the entrance?"
    I'm hoping it's a black hole because that's where i put stuff that i want to forget about.
    "There are bigger places you could live!"
    Yes! If I had a different visa! Please watch until the end of the video where I explain why I am staying in this apartment ^^
    "what happens when you bring guys home?"
    I don't! hah
    "What kind of toilet is that?"
    I don't know! I am not a toilet expert but lets just call it secret toilet!
    Also I just measured the width of my apartment and it is 114cm excluding the space that furniture takes up! so 114cm at its widest point hahaha
    (edit over!)
    Hallo frennssssss! I had a day off today so I thought I would make this video and give you an update on how my apartment has changed over the 4 months I have been living here.
    I'm happy living here and am not home so often, so it is nice to have my own small space to come and relax in!
    Apartment tour from when i first moved in: • My teeny-tiny Japanese...

    Hi! Emma from over 2 years in the future here! Just want to clear up some very common comments:
    Yup I figured out msg isn't bad for you hahaha
    This place was expensive, but definitely not the worst deal in Tokyo. Though at the time I had not many options due to my Australian working holiday visa!
    I now live in a larger apartment for much cheaper and live and work still in Tokyo :)
    The only thing I miss from this apartment is the cool sci fi toilet, and how quickly the place got warm in winter when I turned on the heater.
    This place was amazing short term, but the lack of sunlight, location, and size were a bit rough after 11 months haha
    It was a great experience living there and I learned a lot about myself and how to utilize space and appreciate what I have.
    If you want to see where I live now I have made plenty more videos during my time here in Japan :) Thanks for watching and enjoy the rest of your TH-cam browsing!

It's 2 small bedrooms, a medium bathroom, kitchen and front room ..it's 1/2 a duplex in a very old, well kept, historic Indiana town. It's considered small and it's perfect for one. I'm within walking distance of (historic) downtown and my lunchlady job at the (historic) highschool.
      It truly is small. I rent for $650.00 a month and it's all electric...good water, great landlord. I work with ladies who went to that same highschool with him 45 years ago...

      I am a US citizen living in Mexico. When I first moved here I did not speak the language and could not read my mail. I met my neighbors by walking up and down the sidewalk asking anyone outside if they spoke English. I found a guy who spoke a small bit. I asked him what my mail was. He explained this is the water bill, this is electricity... Paying bills here is trippy. You don't do it on line and you don't write a check and mail it. I asked how to pay my bills but his English was not good enough to explain. First six months was quite the learning experience!
      I have a drawer that I throw stuff in that is more Spanish than I can read. If it is a bill I am expecting it and already know. Anything else I put it in a drawer and I always plan to take it to my neighbor but by the time I do it is months and months old.

    Hi! This video showed up in my feed this morning, and I wasn’t sure why... then, I watched your video. You are a breath of fresh air and very down to earth and relatable, which is why your video was so enjoyable. No frills, just you giving an honest tour of your apartment in Japan, and sharing the few small side stories (like the drain), it really made the whole video relatable. Loved it. Subscribed, keep them coming. It also makes us Westerners realize how much we take for granted, in that the Japanese are the epitome of efficiency and compact design. My own home is 2100 square feet, and I am filled with useless collectibles and electronics that I never use. Just more to dust and clean. Your apartment is so efficient and has all anyone would really ever need. Great job.

    When in university, I was living out of a 10x10 foot room with a tiny ensuite bathroom. The room had a sliding door that led directly outside. I literally never used the door that led to the rest of the house, because that was part of the rental agreement. It might as well have been a brick wall. Paid $350 per month to the family that lived there, which included wifi and parking. I bought my own mini-fridge, microwave, and toaster oven. I wouldn't have changed a thing! At that time in my life, I didn't need space, or luxury. It's certainly an experience, though!

      it is small, that does not mean that it is efficient, the thing is there is a lot of space wasted in this "Appartment" i mean, the closet right from the door good be es high as the room and bigger, which would gain a lot of space, same over the Door perfect place for another closet, or even hanging stuff there because the roof from the bedroom is in reachable height.
      but yeah the Bathroom could not be more efficient, same for the Kitchen, both reminds me of Vanbuilds a saw and used ;)
      Still 100€/qm2 seems quite pricey even on a mountly contract including utility.... But yeah here in Munich it is also not cheap so i know that feeling to pay extra for a own small 20-30qm2 room for 800-1000€ over a similar sized room in a shared flat/house for 600, with other people you have to life together....

It's about $650-700K USD for a good single family house around here in LA and OC. Of course, you can go way, way north of that price for nicer and nicer houses.

    I live in London. I pay £507 per month for a room quite big for my self and with a small patio-space as big as that entrance/kitchen. I share a big kitchen and bathroom... really, people complain about the prices in London. I simply CAN'T.

      Lol. No reason to argue. I agree with you. Eventually I will move out of London, but right now, I want to enjoy the Town a little bit more: lots of art galleries around, lots of culture events... that's the most interesting part of London for me.

      Apartments in Germany are mostly quit cheap in fact to other countrys... for around 70m² you pay around 500-750€ and around 600-800€ in the centre of citys like Berlin or Cologn so it is quit cheaper than a 500€ apartmanet with 8m² in Tokyo or a 450€ room in London xD

Five hundred odd quid for a room in a house is a lot of money!

    the fact that there were almost 3000 people who downvoted this really sweet, innocent and fun video that has only good intentions just shows how you should never take "downvotes" personally. There is so no reason to downvote this video, yet, so many of them did. Being on social media really requires you to have healthy dose of self-confidence.
