Documenting my story of buying, renovating and living in my home in Japan. I share what I learn along the way, including mistakes, wins, and everything in between. This playlist also gives a look at daily life in rural Japan, right in the middle of one of the country’s snowiest and most well-known ski areas.

In this video, I have captured what it looks like in early February 2025 in Myoko Kogen, Niigata to show you what daily life is like in winter. ———————— ORIJA MERCH www.orija.me MY GUIDES & MAPS Travel Japan - guide https://www.rexby.com/im.mattguy/japan Buy me a coffee :) Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/mattguy Instagram @im.mattguy
