i don't need any of that though.

i live in tokyo as a senior engineer with a ~75-80k usd salary. it's comfortable.

it's safe and practical. i can walk to the park with my daughter in less than 5 minutes. and her school is 15mn by bike.

supermarket and restaurants etc. are all at walking distance.

flying is indeed expensive but i don't fly much nor do i want to, so i don't care

i don't need nannies and tutors, i can teach her most of the stuff by myself (i mean i was good at that when i was a kid, + i was a tutor in univ...)
