There isn't anything (except the ambidextrous refrigerator, which is really cool) in her home that you can't get in the US or many western countries. This is mainly a cultural difference. Many of the items are very common in Japan (washlet toilets, electronic showers, multi-color lighting, etc.) but not in the US. You won't likely find any of these things if you move into a rental apartment in the US, but you certainly can install them if you're building your own home or renovating.

I haven't seen many of these things anywhere in Europe either. A lot of it is due to how old (in general) the buildings we live in are, so many adjustments are simply not doable. But also it's a case of not needing those things - if it's something you're not familiar with and your life has been fine without it, you don't feel a need to seek it out. I mean I'm sure a Japanese toilet is amazing but we're not suffering without it. I'd love that appliance shelf though!

For most lease agreements - it is all done in Japanese. And in the 22 years I lived in Japan I never once had in my lease agreement that I was not allowed to wear shoes in the house. Since I spoke Japanese - they assumed that I understood the no shoes culture/policy. But I think you had a special lease agreement probably in English - a service just for foreigners and they assume that you are not aware of the culture, so they had to specify such matters for you. They would never put that in a normal lease agreement because all Japanese take their shoes off when entering the house. Also the slippers should be be placed up on the wooden floor so no dirt gets transfered from the tile floor to the wood floor. Culturally you are doing a no no. The slippers placed on the tile floor are outside slippers for greeting guests or collecting packages. In door slippers never leave the upper floor. That is the correct cultural practice.

Actually, double hinges are not technology. It is called user-centered design, as in we design refrigerators that the user can use rather than design them so they are easy to manufacture. 😉 In North America, most refrigerators and washing machines have doors you can install on either side. So if you have to move and it now opens on the wrong side, you can switch the side the door is mounted on. But there are still appliances sold with a door you can't switch, which is hilariously poor design, especially when these are often high end appliances that cost thousands of dollars. So what should blow your mind isn't that the Japanese have double hinged doors on appliance but the fact that American refrigerators don't have them.

I translated what I could see on the microwave but I couldn’t see what was under the dial or on the door. Here is what I got for you. The top left button with 2-3 says something to drink 「飲み物」 and underneath that on the same button it says alcohol 「酒かん」(I’m guessing option 2 is for drinks in general and 3 would specifically be for alcohol). The top right button with 4 says 「お好み温度」which is “preferred temperature”. The bottom left which says 5-6 seems to give you two options, 5 is thaw all (or thaw completely) 「全解凍」and option 6 is half-thaw (I guess just like thaw it halfway through), 「半解凍」.18-21 are non-fry, 「ノンフライ」, I’m guessing there is somewhere else on the microwave that specifies what each of these are? The yellow button I believe can function as either a warm option as option 1 「あたため」, and its also the start button 「スタート」。Under that button and above the dial it says 「自動メニュー/時間」meaning automatic menu/length of time. Hope this helps! Feel free to send me a message on here or on my instagram @ohplease.angelinarose with close up pictures if you would like me to try to translate the rest! (:

Great video! I am Japanese but been living in the U. S for 15 years now. Your videos are great for me to reminisce about life back in Japan and i appreciate how much you respect the Japanese culture. One advice, the slippers you have for the inside of the house should be kept inside the house, not at the same floor where you put the outside shoes. Most people just put it right above or get a slipper hanging rack.

Japanese toilets are the best invention ever! Went to Japan for the 1st time last summer, and I loved it! My favorite country. Home away from home. I grew up and live in Norway. I already knew alot about Japanese culture, history, foods, language etc. beforehand, but I didn’t have much expectations, and it was way better than I initially thought, except the heat. Language wasn’t a problem due to translation apps and devices used by staff in most stores, as well as at the train/subway station etc. I went to Tokyo (Shinjuku), Kyoto and Osaka. Ioved Kyoto the most. Rented a traditional Japanese house through AirBNB. My dream home would be a traditional Japanese home, but with modern materials, and modern conveniences🥰🥰🥰 It has nothing to do with you being a foreigner, and in the rest of the world except in the US, it’s the norm to not wear your shoes inside the house. It’s like common sense. Unless you have a dirt floor and live in a house made out of cow dung🙄🤦‍♂️

I absolutely love their clever use of space - user friendly and practical while maintaining simplicity and style. It brings joy to the heart of any lover of beautiful, efficient design.

Japan is probably my favorite country to travel to in the world. I've been dreaming about moving there since high school. This just really makes me miss the place. or make me wanna yolo and move there now...

I'm just obsessed with some of the little things that would make THE biggest difference when it comes to cleaning time every week/organizing and being convenient. Like the self dryers in the shower to prevent mold/mildew, the drawers on the freezer and refrigerator, the pull out shelf for the ugly counter top appliances. The pull out shelves in the medicine cabinet mirror. Built in garbages, and the front door. Also it's decorated so beautifully. Like it's all so simple but so smart and it just shows how behind America really is. I love this channel sooo much Thankyou for sharing❤️

It’s normal. When I lived in Japan we lived off base and it was required that shoes were NOT allowed in the house past the front door or the mud room connected to the garage

There are a lot of interesting things in this home video. I think my favorite is the refrigerator door that opens on both sides! That is absolutely fabulous! In the showers. I do love a shower and currently have only a bathtub which is nice but give me a shower any day :-) ... and one that preheats and dries itself sounds pretty cool!

We work in Real Estate. The contracts may exist for foreigners but we've never seen one of our foreigner made contracts say "don't wear shoes" but alllll of our agents always tell the customers to not wear shoes because the floors are easily damaged and if the floors have to be replaced the tenant will be required to pay to replace them. It is a great part of the culture but hopefully your contract can't force you to not wear shoes. It's your house :) Wonderful video !

I was kind of surprised that the contract be so specific as to say don’t wear shoes in the house, but evidently no stipulation about not having a dog. Here in Germany there’s not a rule about wearing shoes in the house although it’s customary to take them off at the door. But floors are usually not so soft! It is however sometimes the case that keeping pets is not allowed, or only with specific permission.
