Hi !!! And now...... Japanese houses. It may seem like a yawn-worthy topic but, no, you are wrong, very wrong. In Japan, houses are very different . In apartments you usually have one room (not including the bathroom [that we will discuss later]). In this one room their are mats that you do everything on (other than sleep). The bed is a soft mat that can be rolled up into the wall , this means that lots of space is saved. In addition they stand outside and douse themselves in water with a ladle- washing off any dirt before having a soak in the bath (which , like the roll up bed, is very logical). Also we just thought we'd mention foutons, they are a thin matress of tufted cotton batting or a similar material, put on top of a raised (folderbul) frame- and sometimes on the floor! -- These arent so comfy, but what they lack in comfort they make up for in physiotherapy! - they are very good for your back postier! :)
See you soon
this is Krustii Wriggles signing off :D
p.s. The pictures are of some GREAT Japanese architecture (imagine living in one of these)!!!
