Dear gaijin….of all shape, sizes and colors!!!!!! and cultures and languages….that read Shakespeare’s way and between the lines....

I have been in Tokyo for 2 month. Great people, very fine manners every where, work is a piece of cake with x2 chocolate. I like what I got in to, really. But I can not stand to live in OTEMACHI apartment/hotel any more it’s not much of a social neibeorhoods. The employer has passed his trial period…and I pass the trial period.

I am ready to rent an apartment close to Haneda airport (I am an aircraft mechanic) I found something somewhat acceptable in Ota-ku and it’s half furnished (basics, fridge, stove, table, 2 chairs, a bead to be discarded, washing machine, TV) I am ready to shell out 2 to 3, (4) K (USD) to make it relatively a home. IKEA is not opening before 2005 ???? WHAT IS THE ALTERNATIVE. Any input from you girls... and guys would be welcome. I know where to go if I had 100K but I do not have it (even then) and it’s for 1 year (+).

Is there any thing like IKEA sort of kind of like somehow kind, like……….it's Tokyo???

EH…I am from the great white north...(Canada)….Eh…..hoser…….(but will not have a beer branded bed spread. Nop not the type…) I am more of a polar bear that cooks and enjoy wine...and fixes aircraft.

Nitori - between Isogo and Negishi stations - is a good budget place - huge selection, delivery. Part of complex with Sotetsu Rosen, Yamada Denki.
10 mins walk from Negishi station
