Each nation has its own problems. In Russia, there are fools and roads, in China there is a great Chinese firewall that does not allow access to the Internet, in Japan there is a high population density. And since the Japanese have to conserve the amount of square meters, they are forced to huddle in more than strange buildings.
Savings brought the unfortunate inhabitants of the Land of the Rising Sun to the point that they had to thicken and lose weight. After all, how else can you fit into these skinny houses that can be seen on almost every corner in Tokyo?
It seems that the owners of small studio apartments from now on will not complain about the housing problem. Though in cramped quarters, as they say, but not in a carriage, it is with these premises that modern Japanese "skinny houses" can be compared. The layout of the "skinny apartments" is straightforward. A corridor is often absent, a kitchen is combined with a common room, and Japanese citizens can only dream of a full-fledged bath: a Spartan shower, a washstand and a toilet bowl - that's all the "stuffing" of a bathroom in such slim apartments.
Although the Japanese themselves are tiny people. They will get used to it … But the emigrants will have a hard time, both figuratively and literally.
