My $800 Tokyo Studio Apartment Tour! 2021
Рет қаралды 1,940,836
3 жыл бұрынYou're invited for a tour of my cozy little home in West Tokyo, Japan! Next to the Ikebukuro, known for its arcades, yaoi, and maid cafes, is where I've decided to pay more rent than I should really be spending on rent.
It took me so long to film this because it never felt "completed". But after being away from it for a good 4 months now, I definitely miss that home and will always remember it as my first proper apartment.
I hope you enjoyed it!
See you in the next one,
Elle

Clementine Aulagnet yea, I understand why heating the bath water is useful so it doesn’t cool so quickly, but using the bath water another day seems gross. I even lather-rise-repeat three times in the shower because my acne prone skin always feels unclean and oily so baths already seem gross to me, let alone reusing water from a previous day.. 🤢🤮

ok SO, myth busting time: people usually shower first (shower and bath are right next to each other) before they soak and chill out in the tub! So they’re already clean by the time they soak so yknow it’s pretty much good to use again! Plus, the water is usually scented with special bath salts since there’s a bath culture in Japan, things like that are so adorable ;-)
