I dunno if that's good or bad relative to American and 2-9 Acre's in a city and like 50+ in a rural area.
Interesting article. I dunno if I'd be able to do rural Japan life (I'd need internet or go insane), but the article makes it sound "romantic." I just worry those rural folks might not be so into "gaijin"'s showing up.
