I am going to Tokyo for 6 moths for part of my gap year. I want to attempt to learn Japanese.
I know Japan is one of the most expensive places but would it be less expensive if I stayed in with a friend who already has an apartment there? It is a one bedroom but its big enough for both of us. I would share the rent and stuff.
Would that be cheaper than getting a place my self?

I’ve been to London several times, but I still don’t know the city very well. (It’s a BIG city). But I am looking for advice on the best location to rent a 1 or 2 bedroom flat for a few months.

By “the best location”, I don’t mean the fanciest. I just mean:

1.Safe – (my wife may be there alone while I travel occassionally),
2. Reasonable in terms of rent per week or per month. If it matters, my lodging budget is around 850 pounds per month.
3. I don’t need to live in central London, but convenience to a tube station would be nice, with a travel time into central London of less than a half-hour.

Are my requirements unreasonable? Is my rent budget too low? I know London is one of the most expensive cities in the world in which to live.

Thanks!
