Couple Buys and Renovates Old Japanese House

I visit Laura and Ichi, who have bought and are renovating a house in Japan. It’s an akiya, not quite abandoned, but unoccupied for around 8 years, with a total project cost (purchase and renovation) of less than USD 100K. For more details about how they bought their house and to follow their progress, check out and follow Laura and Ichi's YouTube channel:    / @konnichiwachannel1   To see Ichi's art (currently showing at Japan's first physical NFT exhibition in Shibuya until July 22) and to buy his book check out the following links: https://www.ichihatano.com/ https://www.theichistore.com/ Also check out Laura’s business: https://hellotokyotours.com/ ------------------- In between videos I'm posting at Patreon:   / tokyollama   Instagram:   / tokyo_llama   -------------------- Music -------------------- Song: Bajou Moon Artist: The Wesley Cousins Band Song: Fisherman's Cousin Artist: Rune Dale Music from Epidemic Sound: https://www.epidemicsound.com/referra... -------------------- Permissions -------------------- Renkon image: westwind, CC BY-SA 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b..., via Wikimedia Commons Mt Fuji image: Photo by Pavol Svantner https://unsplash.com/@palsoft?utm_sou... on Upsplash https://unsplash.com/ #abandonedhouserenovation #japan #renovation
