@@RoCCo_CarmeLL saw other videos from people living in tokyo; apparently steak is the most expensive. seems chicken and other produce and meats are cheaper.
@@chaosfury2016 oh cool, i eat chicken the most, but here in Slovenia all meat are called steakes heh. But I also love beef, wich is expensive here. Its 24e per kilo, what about there in Tokyo
@@RoCCo_CarmeLL have no clue, haven't been in a decade wanted to go back in visit, but i'm broke broke, california is very expenisve now a days. not much work hours also; they say 40hrs/week; right now off peak season we're getting around 20-28hrs/week. Just enough for rent and bills and the metro monthly pass. My shift is from 6pm-4:30am, but we get let out sometimes at Midnight (12AM) (00:00hrs) just barely 24hrs a week lol right now looking for a 2nd part time job from my FT (Full-Time) job. arg
I love that you are taking us out of Tokyo too. Tokyo is indeed amazing but there is always a certain difference between the capital and the rest of the country. Also deep respect to Wakana, she is so young and does everything herself. It is absolutely amazing that Japan allows people living in old houses for free while fixing it. I wish more countries adopted this idea. Way too many gorgeous old houses go to waste. thank you for your wonderful work, as always ♥
@@cupidok2768 All the money you save on rent?? Like, what you mean?? Video even says Wakana-san has a part time job at a Yakisoba restaurant at the foot of the mountain...? That's the real struggle of living out in the countryside, away from big cities - finding work that can support yourself and/or whatever family you have. That's why humanity as a species in general is moving into cities more and more. There's not enough, or not as easy to find decent quality jobs/work for a growing population out in the countryside, demand quite often outstrips supply, and all the smart, talented, ambitious young adult s leave to make their way in the world from bigger communities. Modern society is just built this way. Until technology advances, or it becomes socially acceptable or financially lucrative to work remotely or with less educated country jobs again, then this will continue to happen as a feedback loop of people crowding more and more into cities with less and less people out in rural or remote areas.
@@GarlicAvenger Some people hate city living. If it's harder to get work in the country, only smarter and self reliant people will suceed there. Thats a form of social selection.
I feel you so much! That’s why I’m moving now to the countryside to a 200y+ house that I love, it’s awesome! For someone who has breathing problems is the solution, plus not having to deal with rude and stressed people is a dream. Countryside feels much more alive!
What a lovely way to live, I'm a city gal who married a farmer, living in the country has its challenges but my mood and soul have never been more at peace.
Super! Another splendid video, we can see a young and strong girl indipendent and proud. Very good thing to populate little town like this, she’s happy with the new life. Well done Ken, im waiting for the next video!
Much respect to Wakana for her choice of lifestyle. It is also good that young people want to move to rural areas, to keep these regions alive. In answer to your "Which do you prefer?" question, I would have to say, the city (or more specifically suburbia). But that's just me.
Yeah but...these houses are free or super cheap...the government is giving them out free because they want people to move to the countryside. So, spend tons of money on an apartment in Tokyo, or get a free house....I think it's not a hard choice
For me...it's "close enough but far enough". With that description, the suburbs would be for me as well. Enjoy the city (a town really) that I moved to in SE Wisconsin - though smaller and older than a typical suburb, it's a world away from the state university city in Virginia that I left. In a good way. Day to day life is much more relaxing. People I've previously known went all the way and left city life entirely. But ...couldn't deal with having only well water, constant power outages, almost non-existent cell/internet service, etc. No thanks - "Close enough but far enough" is fine for me. Good for the young lady. Glad she's happy and enjoying the company of her neighbors.
@@chobai9996 is it available to foreigner? I have an interest and looked at pros and cons and it is MUCH better than on the streets of Florida in MIAMI, the most expensive city in my nation!. I'm 21 like this girl, my grandmother is teaching me gardening
What I envy the most is that sense of stillness of the mind, like chore after chore, things have a pace that not only is just right, but also fix you inside, the worries and hurries don't weight so much.
this has been my dream since I was 12!! I love everything about Japan and I continue to push myself to learn Japanese to buy an old house in the mountains in Japan, hopefully someday 😅
Wakana's a pretty capable young woman. Not many would tackle that lifestyle and be content with that. She looks like she'll be successful in her life after watching her deal with everything.
This is kind of a dream life in my mind. I love houses that are a century or more old. Much respect to her for restoring this home, it's cute the unique modern artistic touches she has done around the place too!
Amazing! What a beautiful and creative life is! We need to understand that we have a tons of choices that we could get to choose for what we wanted to be like this! It was incredible to watch!!
Wakana is extremely handy! To be able to manage that household on her own is a credit to her at a young age. Absolutely wonderful video. I could definitely live there and enjoy that peaceful lifestyle.
No cap, I love your videos, I have been watching you for a while now and everytime its soo intresting. I don't give up, I am sure your channel will grow.
Wonderful and insightful video! Very wholesome and informative! I’m definitely going to check out more of the countryside when I revisit Japan. Thank you for this!
Wherever you are, the country life will give the best quality of life, I really admire Japanese countryside life and I really wish to live like them one day.
I could watch you everyday with this girl because of all of the things I would see her accomplish with that house. She seems like a great person and so do you. God bless you and you got another subscriber.
I wish I could move there. That'd be a dream come true. I love the mountains. I live in a tropical area and it is not my thing. I miss the mountain air so much. So peaceful. So beautiful. I love the cold. I feel like I'm dying here. It is summer year round. Not very fun.
This is an idea of paradise to me. I have long dreaming to live like this but still haven't got any courage do so and leave everything behind. Wakana is such a brave young lady!
A few years ago I remember reading about Japan's country sides becoming underpopulated. She is living the simple ways we are meant to follow. What kind of work can a foreigner such as myself find out there? I know some construction and a few other trades as well. I have done a bit of farming and don't shy away from hard work. I would gladly move here. This California man is tired of the big city.
You can move out of the city to the California countryside! Small town life like this can be found closer than most people realize when all they know is the city.
Fresh air, fresh vegetables, crystal clear rivers, not crowded, beautiful and peaceful environment. I can live there!
Yep.. Just some meat missing.. Is there any steakes to buy there?

She's amazing. That's a lot of skills to keep up a house like that.

fr. I just need wifi and I'm set
I'm sure the rural life has less distractions that can negatively impact your marriage as well.
I love Japan countryside stories!
Wakana needs her own TH-cam channel! I’d love to watch her daily life ✨
Even they live in mountain, people got internet access with a good speed for online studying or meeting. Miracle of japan 😯
Same thoughts

The quality of these videos is always amazing, i wait for your videos every week
I totally agree. Quality is superb and enjoy watching them.
Looks like a very peaceful life, so different to the people that live in cities, beautiful countryside too
"Seems like the whole village is her garden" 😂😂. Ken'wife cracks me off all the time

A decent work from home job would be good to lure young adult in the country-side
For me...it's "close enough but far enough".

In a good way.

Thank you for this video. Really interesting insights of life in the countryside. Love how the community gets along there.
Her life is a dream. The small community makes the town feel like a playground. I wish I had time to do many things myself and work with others!
The production on your videos is getting better and better, congrats to you two!
Life is so simple and relax in the countryside, ほんとにどうもありがとう .
She's actually connected with her community and mother nature, she is blessed! And beautiful 😍 👍🏻
Incredible, love this one especially, such a wholesome video!
boi its too exiting too watch.. pls keep showing us these contents..
Oh yea, once Ken uploads you know it’s a good day
I live in the country, too. Next to a mountain. I love to visit cities like Tokyo but I am really glad to return to the peaceful countryside.
this has been my dream since I was 12!! I love everything about Japan and I continue to push myself to learn Japanese to buy an old house in the mountains in Japan, hopefully someday 😅
what a wholesome way to live. I envy her
Wow so peaceful and fresh thank you love the nature and neighbour hood
I have a lot of respect for people like her ... I wish I could do that too. Thanks for sharing

Smart girl, huge admiration for her choices 👍
Love her Steampunk mechanical keyboard.

Awesome Ken , Another Great Video.
Your video brought back so many good memories of cycling through the Japanese country side. Wakana is living the best life!! Thanks for sharing!
actually sound exciting and full of energy! Good luck!
That’s less stress and the crowds can stay in the city. That’s beautiful over there
If i got the chance to move to a Japanese village I would do so in a heartbeat. Love the rural life.
This is the life I've been dreaming of!😊
Simple yet very inspirational video. Keep them coming Ken👏👍

My new favorite channel, please continue :D
I like this video because honest and tell diffrent life
All your vlogs are so interesting. Waiting for like those. 💌
Wakana is awesome!
Real life is a lot more like this than what we experience in cities, real connections and relations!
These videos are super cool! Thank you so much for making them.
Many small towns around the world are as nice as this.
I really enjoy these videos in countryside. I want more !
Thank you for your work :-)
I love how you took us out of Tokyo for this one, Ken, thank you, amazing video!
Lol this is still in Japan tho.
@@bbb_888 Hahaha I know, it's my mistake, I meant taking us out of Tokyo.
awesome video Thanks! Go Wakana!
I love the editing at the beginning!!

seesh cant image the peace at countryside. love this video
such a great look into the life of such a beautiful girl ! Loved the VID!
so sweet this woman. good life
Always look forward to a new upload
Anyway Wakana's mechanical keyboard that she used with the iPad was really cool.
I love your videos! ☀️⛈❄️
Love her life style
I love your posts

You can move out of the city to the California countryside! Small town life like this can be found closer than most people realize when all they know is the city.
