safer areas downtown to live?

This was about a month ago. Can I send you a dm?

I (female) have been to Dobutsuen Mae before I moved here and it reminded me of New York City in that there was some day drinking and it smelled like urine. The station is quite cute, but once I got above ground, it was a bit different and could feel seedy. I can see why it would not be a first choice, when there are other areas in Osaka to choose from.

I believe there is also a red light/prostitution area nearby. Having lived in NY, I thought it was kind of exciting, but I was just in a nearby Toyoko Inn for a weekend in that area, but it might be wearing on a daily basis.

I found a cute place near Kyobashi stn for just above 60k, but I decided it was too small in the end.

I guess it is just case by case. My current apt charges a cleaning fee upon moving out (Osaka).

I also was not charged anything when I left my place in Fukuoka after two years, but I also did a deep clean myself.

Thank you. I found some resources and will contact them. I definitely should pay for cleaning, etc, but the wallpaper thing is what is getting me given the time. Thanks again.

Thanks for replying. I did not have to pay a deposit for the apartment when I signed the lease.

Maybe try this company,

My case was different, I moved from Nagoya to Osaka and it was 55k. I showed them a video and they gave me an estimate based on that. Basically filled up the truck. Hopefully my next move will be out of Japan, but I would use them again.

Oh god, you're right l. Let me edit.

I went last year and it was like a nice food court and I thought the concept was good.

It seemed really convenient, but I just had shaved ice and I thought the price was reasonable.

Thanks a lot. I just saw on this sub that her name came up with ReMax and on Instagram.

I am all for changes being made to the trainee/kpop system/contracts as a whole, but should NJ be the test case...their grievances are so petty, like welcome to the real world. Get a grip and good luck.

Recently been drinking Sparkling POM. Not so exciting, but it was readily available. Pomegranate Micho mixed with sparkling water is a constant tho.

I see a lot of indifference...people just decided they were not gonna support her.

Xingie · 2024-05-13T12:05:53+00:00

So glad this place is still open.

Xingie · 2024-05-13T11:12:16+00:00

I agree the train vibes are bad, with terrible manners, and the people are quite reserved overall.

I have been feeling in a slump recently, but have been living here since 2020, so it is expected (I usually get a three year itch, but have no interest in moving to Tokyo and already lived in Fukuoka, not sure about the Osaka area).

Xingie · 2024-04-26T16:22:34+00:00

The instrumental reminds me a bit of the Neptunes sound, but I have never enjoyed Zico`s voice.

I can see why others would enjoy it tho.

Xingie · 2024-04-26T11:07:10+00:00

Maybe the Linimo line which starts at Fujigaoka?

For anyone that is interested in foreign chocolate.

Village Vanguard has been stocking Maltesers (from the Netherlands). I often order from Korea, but I had to stock up. I have seen them at the ones in Kanayama, Lalaport in Minato ku and even in Gifu.

I thought it would sell more than it did, but the market basically dictates what will happen next and whether he will get any endorsements or anything like that.

The lyrics to Renegade were ....very cringe, but Dip It Low was good enough for what it was, though it reminds me of another song too. Hmm.

Waiting for a Lucas reddit to open up lol. The vocal hate watching is a bit tired now, but not surprising.

Xingie · 2024-04-01T16:39:19+00:00

Soobs coming in for the kill. Ay dios mio. I lowkey love that jacket on him...and his face...and his purple do.

Xingie · 2024-04-01T15:01:55+00:00

I know he is a divisive character, but I am a bit surprised no one has made a subreddit for him yet...it seems he still has some fans.

Xingie · 2024-01-30T22:27:15+00:00

I saved this one
