5 things we did wrong, 5 things we did right

The hosts Take and Joey celebrate surpassing the typical podcast milestone of 12 episodes. They reflect on their recent experiences in Japan, particularly the challenges and insights gained from setting up an Akiya (abandoned house) in Beppu.  The episode covers a range of topics, from renovation struggles like a completely gutted kitchen to logistical issues such as the importance of having a local phone number and cash in a cash-based society. They also discuss the benefits of quick decision-making, the invaluable help from a local 'fixer,' and the insights gained from living in the Akiya during renovations. The hosts conclude the episode with enthusiasm for their ongoing project and look forward to future developments.
