With the echo remember thats because its just the walls sound waves have to bounce off. Once you start hanging pictures and have other furniture the echo will drastically reduce.

@toogietoots Год назад

i LOVE the first house but as a cat owner, my first thought was how fast cats would be sprinting out that fully open patio door

@ps3udologue Год назад

It depends on the cats honestly. There are definitely some who don't care about the unfamiliarity of the outdoors. Don't know about Tuna and Maro.

@Brian-jv8iy Год назад

That's good for cats. City cats should have some way of going out, it's popular here to have some stairs for them from the balcony or a door inside a standard windows if you live on the ground floor. I've seen someone turn their basement into a cat apartment and it has little door in the windows so it can go out at any moment. And its a 4 million city so plenty cars and people

@Vemiia Год назад

@@Brian-jv8iy Cats are horrific for the native wildlife. Please keep them indoors, especially unsupervised, even just for the cat's health and safety.

@markylon Год назад

Just let the cats go out, they will love it, I live in busy London and I've had cats my whole life and it's never a problem. Cats are meant to be outside.

@markylon Год назад

@@Vemiia Nonsense, I've had cats for 40 years, never ever had a problem. THEY love the adventure

@briank8679 Год назад

This was so fun! That first house was *amazing* and I'd move there in a heartbeat if I could. For the second place, the reason it had such a bad echo is because there was no furniture in it to absorb sound. Once you get things like fabrics and woods in there it will significantly deaden the sound, and then you could add rugs and things to absorb even more noise, so don't necessarily write that one off either!

@Koofteh Год назад

But the first place was also empty and had much less echo.

@markylon Год назад

@@Koofteh It's the walls and the floors, as soon as you furnish it there will be no echo.

@edinburghredneck 11 месяцев назад

@@sharlainjapan My uncle moved to Tokyo in the 1960s, and is now wanting to "retire"- sell his house in Katsushika and move with my aunt to Hawaii. I could ask if he's still looking for buyers, and details about his house if you'd like!? He's a very interesting man- a tall redhaired (but now completely Japanese) guy who fit in so well there that he didn't even bother to teach his son English! I've aways wanted to know more about the lives of older expats in Japan like my uncle; to hear about their experiences in Japan and if they feel more accepted after a few decades. Particularly if they've gotten Japanese citizenship- I hear that's a difficult process...anyway, DM if interested!

@chocjamie Год назад

Oh I actually like Sharla and Alex together even more than the tours Alex does alone, it adds a really fun banter thing, they have such a natural rapport with each other. Would love to see more episodes!

@SunnydahyeIn Год назад

Oh my super excited about the move!! Kyaaa❤❤❤❤

@swiftcastholy9034 Год назад

I'm sure Alex would have mentioned it at some point but empty homes are always far more prone to echo, so don't judge too harshly on that alone. That being said, I agree the first property is very difficult to beat. That upstairs office and terrace was just amazing and the kitchen was better than anything I've ever seen in Japan in person. Also, way to go Alex, upping the difficulty from the Impress Abroad series.

@identitycrisis483 Год назад

@clownearound5751 Год назад

Excellent video, I really enjoyed this. Good to see Alex continuing his trademark ‘sitting in the bath’ and that the cats needs were high priority 😊 Both properties were great but the first one really was fantastic. Wishing you good luck and all the best with your house hunting 😸

@Pokkiedock Год назад

The first one is just beautiful! So unique and charming yet still modern. That’s difficult to find anywhere. And just when you think it can’t get any cooler it’s got that rooftop terrace. The second house was also still very nice! Once it’s furnished I imagine the echoing would be almost non-existent and it would look lovely. Two great choices so far! 😊

@CloudsAndCoffins Год назад

That first house is just wildly special! I love the creative and slightly quirky design. It's just such a culture shock (if I'm using that term right) how expensive places are in big cities around the world, and you don't even get to own them. My mortgage for my custom built house on 5 acres in the woods is about a 7th-8th of these prices 🥲

@veronicahaleyeah Год назад

I'm an interior designer. From my experience. The echo comes when the space is empty and there are only walls for the sound to bounce off of. When a space is filled with furniture and your belongings the sound has a place to land and you won't have an echo. Beautiful homes. I absolutely love the first one. Happy hunting.

@TheToneBender Год назад

Wow that first one was dope Edit: Second one is also really nice. The first one was prettier, but the second one seems bigger and more usable. The first one had stuff at odd angles and weirdly long hallway-esque rooms, which seem nice at first, but will probably not be as easy to utilise as you might think.

@Yuscha Год назад

I really like seeing these properties, the Japanese interior design and layout is a lot different from what I'm used to seeing in the US. One thing that stuck out though, I can't imagine paying those insane prices for a place just to rent, and not paying it into a mortgage instead.

@adrianmaxwell5857 Год назад

The first house is stunning. I didn’t even know places like that existed in Japan, let alone Tokyo. I assume since you’re giving monthly rent and mentioning whether or not they allow pets, that you’ll be renting the home? Cause I feel like that also plays a big part into the decision process. If you’re buying, you can do renovations, but if you’re renting, you’re limited.
