  1. Im watching this while stuck on the side of Fuji san due to strong winds, rain storms, and cold temps. I would love to have a house like this. Its so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Maybe i can visit once i get back to the cities.

  2. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us . My favourite is the outdoor deck , great addition to the home .

  3. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home! I love house tours and glimpses into every day life of people living in japan, because I enjoy living vicariously through others. I have a great life, but it's still fun to imagine yourself in someone else's shoe for a change 😊

  4. Wow thanks for sharing your beautiful home, I come from London so it was good to see the comparison and the price too. I will be in Japan in December for my first ever visit. I can't wait 🙂

  5. GORGEOUS home. We are planning our move to Japan after being delayed a year because of a new grandchild. I’m coming in October and will be staying in Tokyo for the most part with a little trip to explore the countryside because thats where we want to live. Our move is still about a year out but we are super excited!
