Hey everyone! This is my first video from my house in Japan, and I wanted to show you all how it is here in Nihon. It's awesome! I forgot to mention that houses in Japan DON'T have air conditioning everywhere and it's in the 30's here every day (90's in Fahrenheit), so don't whine the next time it breaks down at school. Anyway, please enjoy!

  • Ha! I have that same Oxford dictionary AND Kanji dictionary xD har har. would you ever consider living over in japan, coming from an american standpoint?

  • @notnownotsoon

    Haha they're good ones, right? Truthfully, I have already considered working and living in Japan either during or after college-- I just got started in the university system though, so hopefully not much longer until I get to study abroad again.

  • how long did it take you to reall learn japanese, and be able to just have a normale converstation with other people? (talking in japanese that is)

  • @TonyVachterberg

    Well i took Japanese for a year before I actually went to Japan, but I would say I learned most of what I know while I was over there. Immersion actually does work-- it took me about two months to have a good conversation in broken Japanese, and then a few more to get more fluent. I've been practicing, and now I speak with all of my Japanese friends on Skype with no problem :)

  • By all the videos ive seen this is far the best one. please reply to me how much does a house like that cost?

  • @123megatron1

    I'm not sure how much it costs for sure, but I can tell you that it's very expensive-- my host father owns his own roofing company, so this house is a bit larger than most, especially since it is in a more rural part of Japan.

  • Just so that future viewers aren't being set up for a let-down if they go to live with a host-family in Japan, this house is very new and it is massive compared to typical homes there. The host-father must be a wealthy business owner to afford such a spacious house. Most entire apartments in the cities are the size of the room they gave to this kid to stay in. Many host-families need the rent money, this one is being very generous and kind to take in a foreigner. You were very fortunate.
