IT HAS COME TIME FOR ME TO MOVE BECAUSE I’M STARTING A JOB ON THE TOTAL OPPOSITE SIDE OF TOKYO FROM WHERE I LIVE NOW AND I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT TO RIDE THE RUSH HOUR TRAIN EVERY DAY OR I WILL BECOME A HUSK OF A PERSON 😭
Apartment hunting in Japan during the high season is sooo stressful lmao 0/10 DO NOT recommend but sometimes you gotta do it…I was originally planning on not moving until later this summer but I’m actually glad I did it now despite the stress because guys MOVING TAKES SO MUCH TIME AND AHHH idk how I will do this once I have a job lol 🌸
So I visited two apartments!! Please let me know which one you liked better down below in the comments! I was hoping to view more to make this a fun ~series~ but I just did not have the time to lol 😭 Next time I move it will NOT be in high season…hopefully…
BTW yes this is considered an expensive apartment for the average person my age living alone!! The prices are really all relative so even though I say the apartment is like $1300, Japanese salaries are way lower so it doesn’t really equal that…you know what I’m saying lol. I am so happy that I’m able to afford this rn and I am so excited to start a new chapter of my life in my new apartment aaaahhh!!!
I am rushing to get this out btw because I am days away from moving and my apartment is just a box mountain and my PC is about to disappear into the ether for a bit
