What was it like living in my older Japanese house last winter?

I learned A LOT living through my first winter in snow country Japan. I got to experience the heavy snow falls both at home and at a bunch of ski resorts. It was great!

Temperatures dropped to around -10 degrees. Snow fell as much as 6ft in one day. And the snow clearing machines shook me awake as they passed by at 2am.

Winter was an absolute blast!

In this this video, I talk about my first winter season experience at home in Myoko and how the house held up. I also cover what I learned and what I have changed for my second year.
