  • Ever wondered what it's like living in a traditional Japanese House?
    Well if you're on this video, I presume so!
    This is my family home (I am half Japanese myself) and wanted to give you an idea of what to expect if you wanted to move to Japan and stay in a traditional home that is genuinely used by foreigners.
    It's walk through of each aspect of the house inclusive of various parts of a house you would only see in Japan so I hope it's somewhat educational and could come in handy for you.

    Only just found your video, I’ve seen so many traditional Japanese house tours, but I have to say, I LOVE your family home and your presentation! I can imagine your grandparents living there and you all visiting.
    My son lives in Tokyo for 26 years, his wife is Japanese, my 2 grandsons are half Japanese/English as you are. We’re lucky enough to visit each summer 🥵🥵
    Look forward to catching up on other videos
    Good luck

    Good explanation and your house is awesome. But ovens, although not built in, are often bought as a microwave combination. I use mine often.

      @japandy  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks John, much appreciated.
      That is very true, we had a Christmas dinner that had to be made in about 6 different microwave ovens last year 😂
      I must admit though, now that we cook mainly just Japanese food, never use the oven anymore!

    Very interesting. Thank you for sharing your family home with the world. Not sure if Japanese people on average are short or you're just incredibly tall. A few time in the video I for sure thought you were going to hit your head on something.

      Thank you, appreciate the comment! Yeah that's right, something that is quite typical for these kinds of houses, that's the most used room in the house and probably the smallest haha

    This is so cool! Andrew (Questions whilst watching haha)- in the Washitsu, what is the cable /string hanging from the middle of the room for is this for a light? Ive seen this before in shows/film and always wondered what it is for?
    That hair dryer is so cool! do you find it easy to transition between english and japanese language in conversation? do you not stay here whilst in Japan or do you have your own place?

    • @japandy
      @japandy  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Lolli!
      Well done for knowing the word Washitsu haha, yeah the strings for the light. They’re typically a lot longer in the bedrooms and basically reach the ground so people can turn off the lights whilst in their Futons!
      Language wise, surprisingly very easy to transition between the 2 languages
      I don’t stay at this house often unfortunately, it’s only used for a few weeks a year now!

      @@japandy Doesn’t matter the city or place to be honest. Idk why but from childhood I have a fascination with asian and black culture. Even now I am working part-time in an asian restaurant only to be able to be close with these people and learn from them. Even the fact they don’t even speak english and they speak only in their language makes me happy ab it. I know they curse me sometimes when I make mistakes, because of the tone of the voice, but doesn’t bother me, in fact I enjoy it😆 But I think someone really needs to have money to be able to buy a house there, isn’t so? I am not in the news to how much are the prices, and I was afraid sometimes to check, to not ruin my dream completely:))

      It’s called a ‘strong’ and it’s a 9% Chuhai which is like a mix of Soda, Shochu and some kind of fruit juice. I think anyone would slur after drinking this although I didn’t actually drink it so sad to hear you think I was slurring 😂
