One of my favorite things about a recent trip to Japan was just watching people go about their daily lives.

We stayed in a home and it was fascinating how differently the homes are designed and function.

There is no substitute for experiencing a place.

Agreed, I did a month long cultural homestay in northern Japan and got to deal with a bunch of mundane bits like laundry, grocery shopping, and trash day.
