What a Japanese Moving Company in Tokyo is like
The Japanese moving company experience is unlike many other countries. This is a Day in the Life of moving Japanese apartments in Tokyo which can be stressful, but using a Japanese moving company can make the move in Japan a bit easier. If you are moving to Japan or moving to Tokyo, this is something you may want to consider. Living in Tokyo and living in Japan has many challenges, but hiring a Japanese moving company made it less so in my personal experience. During the Tokyo move you can see how a day in my life in Japan is like. My life in Tokyo is documented over the next 3 days moving so you can see what living in Japan may be like for you. We use the company Art Moving Center also known as Art Hikkoshi Center ( アート引越センター ). As mentioned in the video, I was not paid for this video, but the company did move our Japanese apartment for free since we were going to film our Japan moving experience. Also, you'll get a quick Japanese apartment tour of my old and new place. If you want to see more behind the scenes, Tokyo apartment tour, or just Tokyo vlog videos, check out my 2nd channel, Tokyo Zebra. Link is just below.
NOTE: I hope that everyone is staying safe and healthy during these times. This video was filmed before Tokyo started recommending a city lockdown. In fact, at the time of uploading this video, Tokyo is still not officially on lockdown and residents are able to go out as they wish, but please know that I am staying at home these days as much as possible, eating meals at home and only venturing out for necessary items such as pregnancy clinic visits, grocery shopping, etc and also practicing social distancing as much as it is possible in Tokyo. And of course, I am not traveling these days.

Day in the Life of a Typical Japanese Couple Moving in Tokyo
A Day in the Life of a Typical Japanese couple moving to Tokyo Apartment for the the first time together. This is a Tokyo day in the life story of a Japanese man and Japanese women deciding to move in together into their new Tokyo home. This is an inside look at Dating in Japan or dating someone Japanese. Before today, they lived in separate Tokyo Apartments but the Japanese apartments were too small so they decided to hire a Japanese moving company to help them with their move to a larger Tokyo apartment. This video shows the Japanese couple's Tokyo life together in their old Japanese apartment and in their new Tokyo apartment. We start the typical Japanese life in the morning and explore Japanese relationship culture with Yujin and Arisa. Living in Tokyo is quite different than most parts of the world. Throughout this day in the life in Japan Tokyo video, we can have an Japanese apartment tour and walk through the Japanese moving company procedures. We explore Japanese life, Japanese culture and Japanese relationship in this video. This video may also be helpful if you are thinking of moving to Japan or want to know more about a Japanese Family or Japanese home life.

Yujin is 27 years old, works for IT solutions firm in Tokyo as a sales person and has lived in this Tokyo apartment by Yoyogi Park for 2 years now.
Arisa is 26. They’ve been going out now for a strong 11 months as you can tell by their tooth brushing routine. These days, Arisa sleeps over mosts nights so it was natural for them to start thinking of getting a larger place together that they could share.
So they are moving out of this 1K apartment in Yoyogi. 1K means 1 room, Kitchen and the bath. Pretty typical size for a single person’s apartment in Tokyo. It may be small to most, but since the room’s on the 9th floor it has a pretty decent view.
Also, this main room has 2 closets which is nice since Japanese apartments tend to have minimal storage areas.
He has a medium sized fridge as you can’t really fit anything larger than this in the kitchen. It filled with your standard drinks, fresh vegetables, soy sauce and tea.
In the bathroom area, there’s a washing machine, sink and toilet. The toilet itself has the standard Japanese bidet and controller, as expected in most newer apartments.

Day in the Life of a Typical Japanese Office Worker in Tokyo
Living in Japan and working in a Tokyo office - This is a Tokyo day in the life of a Japanese Office Worker, 24 year old, Emi. This is also a tour of her Japanese office, Pasona. We start this typical day in her Japanese home, commute via train to her Tokyo office in Otemachi and spend a day in the life of Emi at her working place. We see her typical working hours in Japan and how it is working in Japan as a female in her position. Her day in the life in Japan may be a bit different than some Japanese salarymen, but her experiences in the office with chorei, senpai / kouhai, and kenshu is a very typical in experiences in many Japanese offices. If you want to know how work in Japan or want to know how work in Tokyo, this could be how your job in Japan could be like. The Tokyo office itself, is probably an above average Japanese office in terms design and the business culture a bit more progressive than most traditional Japanese companies, but this Japanese company still maintains a very traditional Japanese office environment. So all in all, this is an example of Japan life as well as Tokyo life if you were to work in a Japanese company. You should always be aware of Japanese culture when working in a Japanese office. This Japanese office has a gym, English school and even a farm all in the building. Pasona is one of the largest staffing services company in Japan. There’s about 4000 staff in her office alone and about 9000 in total worldwide.

Day in the Life of an Average Japanese Salaryman in Tokyo
Japanese work day at a Japanese office for an average Japanese salaryman in a Tokyo office. Living in Japan and working in Japan is quite a unique experience. This is a day in the life of Japanese worker, Makoto, 27 years old who lives in a Tokyo 3-story house with his family. This Tokyo salaryman works in a small Tokyo office, but spends many of his Japan working hours traveling from client to client on the Tokyo trains. Makoto works for a company called Mobal and as many Japanese salarymen, he entered the company straight from a Japanese University and he plans to spend his entire salaryman career at the same company. That is the life in Japan for a salaryman. We take a look inside what it's like to work in a small Tokyo office as well as to visit clients throughout Tokyo city area. His job experiences maybe unique to his company, but fundamentally he is very much an average salaryman. He commutes by train everyday to get to work and has to ride his mama-chari bike to get to the train station from his home. This Tokyo salaryman life has him arriving to work early and working late. As a salaryman, Makoto receives a standard salary every month for all the long work hours. The Japanese office is also configured so his boss' desk is right in front of him, quite a Japanese style office working environment. This very average Japanese work day and work lifestyle showcases a true day in Japan work life.

Why You Should NOT Move to Japan
- Get 10% off with my link on Squarespace.
Many people tell me that they want to move to Japan, which I completely understand because I personally love it here. I love the food, the culture and how safe it is, relatively speaking. Obviously not everything is perfect in Japan, it’s a small island with a lot people living close together especially in the cities, so there has to be some compromises. I think some foreigners moving here, don’t come here with that compromise mindset and are rudely surprised when things are not as they thought. I wanted to make this video and share issues that some foreigners complain about when living in Japan. So you have a little more information before you decide to move your entire life to Japan to later realize that Japan isn’t for you. Working in Japan and living in Japan takes a special person who can compromise and understand that life in Japan is not going be like life back at home. The people who can appreciate and understand the differences generally do well living in Japan.

Things Okay in Japan but Illegal Around the World
Use my code PAOLO15 at to get $15 off your first Bokksu Japanese snack box!
Shocking Laws okay in Japan, but illegal around the world. So I’ve made videos before on things you can’t do in Japan because of laws or unknown laws that could get you arrested, but in this video I wanted to switch things up a little and share with you some things that are legal in Japan but may be illegal in other parts of the world. Many think that Japan is a very strict country, but when you hear some of these Japanese laws you may be scratching your head. And to be clear from the start, I don’t recommend doing any of these things. I’m not providing legal advice and this is for entertainment only.

Day in the Life of a Japanese Delivery Worker
A day in the life working in Tokyo Japan as a Delivery Worker at Sagawa Express, one of the largest transportation companies in Japan. This is what a typical day working in Japan is like if you worked for a large shipping company as a Japanese delivery man or delivery women in Tokyo. Japan work life and Japan work culture can be seen throughout the video from morning until evening. Yasuho, who is 22 years old, recently started working in a Japanese company Sagawa and we follow her through her average working day in Tokyo Japan. These are her typical working hours in Japan. She loves working in Japan and for her Japanese company as a Japanese delivery worker. Japanese delivery women work the same as the delivery men in Japan and there doesn't seem to be much of difference in work responsibilities. In fact, this is a peek into Japan life and Tokyo life that is rare to see, but Yasuho has been kind enough to let us follow her for the day. You'll find that Japaense delivery workers in Tokyo do a lot of walking since businesses are quite close to each other so it doesn't make sense to drive around in a delivery truck all day when compared to other countries. I hope you enjoy this video about delivery workers in Japan, life in Toyo and how it might be like working for a Japanese company such as Sagawa Express. If you are interested in learning more about Japanese work culture, check out my other Japan Day in the Life videos.

What you NEED to KNOW when you First Arrive in Japan
This Japan guide reviews what to do in Tokyo when you first arrive at Narita Airport or Haneda Haneda Airport. First time travelers are confused what to do in Tokyo, where to go, how to get from Narita Airport to Tokyo, how to get from Haneda Airport to Tokyo as well as what to eat in Japan. I cover all these questions and much more. These are Japan Travel Guide tips I wish someone told me when I first arrived in Japan or even wish I knew before I came to Japan. This video is perfect for first time travelers who don't know the difference between Narita Airport or Haneda Airport. Also, I share with you how to Get a SIM a card and what useful apps you can download before arriving at the Tokyo Airport in Japan. I even provide some tips on Showers and Tokyo Capsule Hotels at both Tokyo airports.
___ Must Know things when First Arriving in Tokyo Japan ___
0:00 - Intro
0:51 - 1 Difference Between Narita & Haneda Airport
Travelers flying into Tokyo for the first time, have an option to fly into Narita or Haneda Airport.
Narita is the larger of the 2 airports and is generally known to have more international flights while Haneda has more domestic flights. Both have lots of dining and shopping areas, but since Haneda is newly ren, I have to give Haneda the overall edge when it comes to attractions.
The biggest differentiator between both airports is the distance to Tokyo. Narita is about 1 hr away by express train, while Haneda is about 15-30 min train ride away. So it’s a little cheaper transportation-wise from Haneda.

What Staying Overnight at Nintendo's Original Office in Japan is like
Get Exclusive NordVPN deal here: It’s risk free with Nord’s 30 day money-back guarantee!
Nintendo originally started out as a company that made playing cards in 1889 here in Kagiyacho Kyoto, and was founded by Fusajiro Yamauchi. And this very building was Nintendo’s first ever office headquarters, which was in full operation until 1959 when Nintendo finally outgrew the office and moved to a larger space. Unoccupied until now, it’s been transformed into a hotel and named after one of the company names Nintendo used in its past, Marufukuro. With 18 rooms including 7 suites, it preserves many of the former offices interior and design. This time, I brought the fam, Maiko and Wolfy and since it's an all-inclusive hotel, meaning food and drinks are provided for the entire stay, we’re gonna take it a bit easier than usual, slow it down, enjoy the place, and relax. We are staying in the Junior Suite of the warehouse building. You can check out the availability at the link below.

Why Japanese Don't Like Foreigners
10 Reasons Why Japanese Don't Like Foreigners. Thanks to Squarespace, get 10% Off: Japan tourists or foreigners coming to Japan may not understand Japanese culture because of this some Japanese dislike foreigners for not understanding Japanese manner and etiquette. As a generalization, Japanese follow the rules and get frustrated when people don't follow those rules, but often time they generally avoid confrontation when they have these sort of issues. Based on my experience, this is why Japanese don't like foreigners and tourists and what they are really thinking when foreigners break the rules. I can't stress enough that these are generalizations and not everyone is like this as everyone is unique, but for the purpose of this video and to show what Japanese may be getting pissed off about, I speak in general terms. These are my Japan tips for tourists to help them understand Japanese manners so they don't make those tourist mistakes in Japan or in that they may be unknowingly viewed as misbehaving tourists in Japan. Although some Japanese hate foreigners for doing things in the video, some other Japanese may be okay with the behavior but again I am speaking in general terms. In general, I don't think foreigners want to be rude tourists in Japan, but because they don't understand Japanese rules or Japanese manner they make the classical foreigner mistakes in Japan. These are must-know Japan tips to and a Japan guide when visiting Japan.

10 Reasons Why Japanese Don't Like Foreigners Living in Japan. It’s probably fair to say that visiting Japan as a tourist compared to living and working in Japan is a very different experience. It’s no longer all about visiting cool sites and eating awesome food, Foreign residents quickly become part of the daily grind with every other Japanese person living here. And what a lot of foreigners don’t realize is there are quite a lot of unwritten rules when living in Japan in order to help keep it a pleasant society, until maybe it’s too late. The idea behind this video is to share some interesting unwritten rules I’ve personally come across to help anyone planning on living in Japan to avoid being thought of as a rude foreigner.
As always, these are general rules in Japan, nothing is absolute in this world, everyone is different and reactions from Japanese will vary on how sensitive they are to these rules. Some Japanese dislike this behavior quite a bit while some Japanese maybe okay with it. I am speaking in general terms. The point of this video is to help foreigners, who plan to live in Japan or maybe recently moved to Japan, understand what the regular Japanese culture and Japanese customs are so that they don't come off rude without knowing it. I hope this helps as a Japan guide. As always, let me know how it compares to your culture.

My job in Japan!!!! Kind of!! Really I just haven't been clear about it because it's difficult to describe and I don't know what I'll really end up doing a few months down the line lol ???? But I wanted to let you all know a bit more about my career path and wanted to give actual advice about finding a NON-TEACHING JOB in Japan that could actually maybe be helpful!!
I realize now that I was not explicit about this in the video btw, but my sidework doing Youtube and Instagram is what led me to get most of my job interviews (and my current job!!)!

$1500 Japanese Apartment Tour in Tokyo Shibuya
Japan Home Tour of my Shibuya Tokyo Apartment.
Use my Squarespace link and Get 10% off today!
I take you inside my Shibuya apartment and show you where I have been living in Tokyo for many years now. The average apartment in Tokyo is not very big. My Japanese apartment is 35 square meters and it costs about $1500 when I first moved in but it is closer to $1600 now. It was fine when I first moved in, but with Maiko moving in and now a baby on the way, it will be too cramped for all 3 of us. This is how life is for many people in Tokyo as space is limited in a big city like Tokyo. If you are thinking of moving to Japan or even moving to Tokyo, living in one of the busiest areas like Shibuya, this is likely what you would get for this monthly rent. I hope you enjoy this Japanese house tour and me sharing a little bit of how my life is in Japan. This has been one of my living costs in Japan for some time, but we look for a larger place to start our family in Japan, monthly rent will probably increase as we try to find more space while staying inside of the city. If you want to see more of my family's daily life and journey check out my Tokyo Zebra channel. You'll see more of what it is like to move in Tokyo and live in Japan.

We're Moving
We're finally moving in Tokyo Japan. We wanted to post earlier but there has been so much going on with the preparing for the baby, finding a place and now moving. We'll sum it up here and hopefully we can post more regularly coming up soon.
Also, as I mentioned before, I hope that everyone is staying safe and healthy during these times. This video was filmed before Tokyo started recommending a city lockdown. In fact, at the time of uploading this video, Tokyo is still not officially on any lockdown and residents are able to go out as they wish, but please know that we are staying at home these days as much as possible, eating meals at home and only venturing out for necessary items such as pregnancy clinic visits, grocery shopping, etc. and also practicing social distancing as much as it is possible in Tokyo. And of course, we are not traveling these days. I hope this video can bring some joy to your part of the world.
We'll be scheduling a video baby shower soon.
