Weave Living’s latest property in Asakusa has a great location that has easy access to Asakusa Station and the Nakamise-dori shopping street that serves as the temple’s main approach. Weave Living also has some other furnished apartments near Shinjuku for students doing long term stays that can’t access a normal Japanese apartment.

Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of work with a brand called Weave Living as my digital marketer and online media buyer alter ego. The company provides hassle-free accommodations to expats as well as Japanese individuals who don’t want to go through all of the rigmarole of renting an apartment the normal way. Fully furnished, these premium units strike the perfect balance between convenience and price. As I was looking at my ad performance one day though, it struck me that rental properties like the ones offered by Weave Living would also be great for travelers planning extended stays in Japan.

Now, anyone who has read this blog for any length of time will know that I am a huge proponent of getting off the beaten path in Japan. While it’s entirely possible to do so on a shorter trip if you’re coming from Asia, most travelers visiting from North America or Europe would be better served by opting to stay a little bit longer. Doing so allows you to dial back the frantic pace of your travels while also providing ample time to dive deep into the local culture. Thankfully, more and more people in recent years are coming around to the fact that anything less than one month in Japan is just too short.
