I have moved into my new Home.
I love it.
I now am staying in a gaijin house that used to be a high end restaurant. This means that the kitchen ( for Japan) is huge. The decor of house is understated elegance.
The house has 7 or 8 women, and 2 or 3 men. ( not sure about numbers, I am still meeting people, and 2 of the ladies are flygin). Every one is very friendly. This is what I wanted!!!! There are some houses where the residents don’t mingle, but in less then 24 hours I feel this is the right place for me! I don’t mind being awaken in the morning to the sound of laugher from other residents.
I haven’t taken any pictures yet, but when I do I will post some. This may be a few days. The house manager broke his leg… in an encounter with a old lady on a bike. This means things are not as tidy as they normally are.
My room is small ( I have stayed in Hotels where the washrooms were larger) but it is clean and comfortable.
I had to go out and buy some slippers ( no shoes in the house)
I realise that I have no idea how to walk in them!
I am so used to shoes, bare feet or slippers with backs on, but I have never really used ( or liked) slippers with no backs. I don’t know how to keep them on my feet.
When I was staying in the hotel in Shibu-Onsen, I thought the slippers were falling off my feet because they were small.
I now realise I have to hold them on with my toes…. you learn new stuff every day.
