British family

In the British, family structure is often asked. When asked if they are married or have children, if they answer no, the next thing they will definitely ask is their siblings. It’s not like avoiding awkwardness, it’s like asking all the questions up to that point.

British culture has a flat share. Most rentals in the British are furnished, so many people feel free to move. The general flow is to find the property yourself, negotiate with the landlord, and live with others, nice to meet you. Living with strangers has both advantages and disadvantages. Why is flat sharing so common in British? The reason is that there are few properties for living alone and the rent is high. Many properties in British are over 100 years old.
In the first place, there are few houses built for “living alone” like in Japan.
Although it looks like one house from the outside, it is often the case that each room is rented differently.
Of course, there are also apartments like Japanese apartments and condominiums.
Flat share shares the kitchen, living room, bath and toilet with everyone, and only the bedroom is a private space. Flatmates are mysterious, closer to their neighbors and farther than their friends, family and lovers. Rents in British are ridiculously high.
If you live alone in 1K (separate bath / toilet, kitchen) like Japan, the monthly rent will exceed 200,000 yen even if you are far from the city center.

How do British people find a property? These are the two main methods.
The first is introduction of acquaintances. The second is matching app.

British families often go to pubs to enjoy their meals with their families. When you hear the word pub, you might think that an adult drinks alcohol, but there are many cases where a family comes, like a family restaurant in Japan.

Japanese family

Japanese families often live in single-family homes or condominiums. Japanese families often live in single-family homes or condominiums. Japanese families go to parks and shopping malls on their days off to enjoy themselves. We eat and shop with our families.

According to the internet

I was very curious about my family in British so I searched on the internet. The site was written by a Japanese person who went to study abroad in British, and it says that he was surprised about his family in British. Unlike Japanese, British people naturally boast of family members. For example, They are proud of everything around them, such as the busyness of their husband, the profession of their son, and the appearance of their daughter. However, it seems that it is not unpleasant and feels good. Not being humble is proof of good health. Besides, British people are better at contacting their families than Japanese people. Some people keep in touch with their son every day to keep track of their physical condition and schedule. It is natural to know her son’s story.
