Solo Living Tokyo Style

💗 Essential things for a good start to the day : Breakfast, Coffee and watching my favorite Youtubers !! 💗

Initially the thought of sleeping on a futon was weird for me. But i got very, very used to it. I LOVED it even. It was very comfortable, convenient and easy because at night you had a bed and in the morning you rolled it up to make extra space in your apartment, bliss 💁

LIVING ALONE IS :

- Freeing 

- Relaxing 

- Independence boosting 

- Mature

So i've been off the radar for two years from Melbourne and so i thought you guys would probably enjoy seeing some photos of what my living spaces looked like in Japan and here they are.

 The shitty thing about living in Melbourne is that there's no way you can live alone ( unless you're a high flying 30 something or living with a partner ). Tokyo was great because everybody lives alone there and so the market is very open to people my age who want to live alone. In fact, share houses are a pretty recent phenomenon there. People seem to have always preferred solo living and the privacy and ease that naturally come with having to deal with nobody but oneself ( which makes perfect sense ).  

You can see that my second apartment was a lot better looking and nicer in general than my first ( pictured below ). But you might be surprised to know that the second apartment was one of the WORST places i've ever lived in. In terms of utilities and convenience it was amazing. But i lived next door to the neighbour from hell which ruined my time there. My first apartment gave me the solo living that i really was looking for and i'll always cherish the time i lived there by myself. 

I remember the absolute CLIFF HANGER week it was when i applied for this place. I have always wanted to live in a Loft apartment and i got it, but it was totally different to what i thought it'd be

The sleeping space was pretty large. It could have slept about three people. I made it into my reading and sleeping space with books, a coffee table and a lamp

I've always loved big dining tables and i finally got to call one my own in Japan. It was perfect for everything. Eating off, working off, dumping your bag on...
