    We lived in Towada-shi, Aomori-ken for 3 years. &nbsp;Winters can be brutal with massive amounts of snowfall. &nbsp;Skiing there, and relatively easy access to Hokkaido were redeeming features. &nbsp;The air quality, water quality, and food there were also big plusses. &nbsp;The APPLES!<br><br>The boards on the windows of the second house aren&apos;t there to &apos;board it up&apos;, but to protect them from SNOW, lots of snow and the how high the boards go gives you an idea of how high that snow can build up. <br><br>Shu, you should visit again in the dead of winter and report on it.

    We lived in Aomori a long time ago. &nbsp;It was the best three years of our lives. &nbsp;We still dream of one day moving back.

    <b>Aomori City is officially the snowiest major city in the world, receiving an average of about 8 meters (26 feet) of snowfall annually.</b><br>That&apos;s a dominating characteristic that wasn&apos;t emphasised here. Amongst other influences, that factor could be high on the list for a declining population.

    Our cruise stopped by Aomori last year. The people were so nice. It is an aging population and very rare to see young children. This old woman selling her trinkets gave a few free toy items to my kids. She was genuinely so happy to see them. I am rooting for Japan. I hope they fix population problem.

    Liked the video purely for the fact you took your kiddo with you, fantastic experience for him and being transparent on the real world impact on doing this is something we all need to share and understand.<br><br>Our children and family ALWAYS come first.

    Japan houses are so cold in the winter. So many elderly people die in the winter not insulated well😢

    I love Japan. Someday I would like to visit Mount Fuji. Watching Doraemon cartoon and collecting Japan inspired colouring books and stationary items was a part and parcel of my childhood and growing years. I will always cherish those memories. Lots of love and respect from India 🙌
