Random observations from a Parisian in Tokyo: I love the sink on top of the toilets way more than the electronics. (jlai.lu)

I'm not super convinced by the water jet. It can make a mess, it requires a lot of paper to dry if you don't want to wet your pants and if you don't have soap, are you really cleaning?
Heating seat feels like overabundance (a common thing in Japan).
But the sink to clean your hands and reuse this gray water for the next flush is amazing. I think it should be made mandatory in every region with water resources issues. It's still not clear to me, however, if using soap there will cause more maintenance issues or not.

I would like to start a series of random posts about life in Tokyo from a Parisian perspective. I'll try to show the good, the bad and the in-between. I make no promises in terms of frequency or objectivity.

I'd read that. As someone who is neither in Japan or from France, it sounds interesting.

I've been in Japan last summer, here are some suggestions of things to analyse, that I felt contrasted a lot with what we have in Paris :

  • Tokyo subway
  • Combini meals
  • Bread
  • Donki and Big Camera and what kind of stuff can be found inside
  • being a pedestrian in the city

Anyway, have fun in your travels !

Thank you for the suggestions, I did plan to mention some of those.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I didn't know if English was allowed so I started here but I can cp or you can if you want.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah of course,
I cp this one, but i hope i dont miss then the next ah ah :)

France got a big speed timeline, Btw just for you, france got the rule 7.. saying that the subject/content has to be in direct relation with the france or french... (i dont like this one, i want it deleted XD).

So you can post it, in addition to [email protected], i would say : [email protected] [email protected]

Ok for cross-posting to Japon, is it useful to cp to more?

@[email protected], is my post against the rules here, considering that I'm giving a point of view from a French perspective?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

nah it's fine, we also have toilets in France 😛

My neighbour also has this kind of toilet.
