  • Come along with us today as I take you on a tour of my quaint 1 room (1LDK) apartment in Shimokitazawa, situated in West Tokyo. Shimokitazawa is a neighborhood known for its second-hand clothing, curry restaurants, theaters and cafes. If you want to know how much $900 USD can get you in a central part of the city, look no further! We hope you enjoy!

    Hi guys! Andrew already moved into his new place. And OMFG his new place is amazing, really channeling "rich single gay bachelor" vibe. I am jealous 😆

    Great video. We also have those wall pin anchors here in the US. They work very nicely. I does bet a bit cold in Tokyo in the winter but really never snows there. Everyone here in the US uses space heaters in the winter to help keep the house or apartment warm. Size of the apartment was very decent. Here in the US most older apartments do not allow for a washer dryer but usually offer a laundromat. They make portable induction stove tops which work really great but they are not cheap. Cannot wait to see your new houses once you have them furnished and such. Thanks
