Lived 2 years in Tokyo. Could not stand it. The noise, the low ceilings (I am 1m90). Insulation seems unheard of.
Now we moved to the countryside, baby is much happier here. Can run, can jump. The teenager can finally play guitar and piano, something she had zero place to do in Tokyo. I now have a room where I can do some little electronics. Impossible in Tokyo.
Tokyo is a city that grinds lives, it is chilling to witness.
- discordance 7y agoThere are a lot of music practice spaces if you want to make a lot of noise
- chrischen 7y agoYes like Yoyogi park, though hard to move a piano there.
- MickerNews 7y agoIn most other countries we call these homes.
- Iv 7y agoThey are expensive. nd to be good at anything you need time and room to fiddle and do silly things, something you may not be comfortable doing in an overcrowded park like yoyogi. Here she just goes into the field or in her room when she want to practice clumsily the chords she learns through youtube.
