The challenge of finding an apartment...
I'll be the first to readily admit that amongst my peers, my current apartment is actually one of the bigger ones. And at about $580 per month, it's almost a steal. Now the time has come for me to find an even bigger apartment. Yes, it's more expensive in Tokyo than it is in Osaka, and yes, I actually need at least a 2DK to move into. Normally, I'd really only need a one room apartment, but I've been put into a unique situation. I've inherited a full queen-sized bed, AND now a sofa. The upside is, I now have great furniture and won't need to go shopping for new stuff. The downside is, I better have the space for it. Luckily, I should still be able to afford some 2DK's that my gf and I have looked at without taking too big of a hit.
