Yuko san made it very easy to find the house by sending a visual guide to the house - which was - as promised - close to the railway station.

On arrival we found some unique Japanese sweets - we felt very welcome and everything was very well organised, and welcoming.

There was also a good guide to the local shops, what to do with garbage and recycling, and a local guide to tourist attractions prepared by Yuko san- My daughter wanted to go to a cat cafe which I only found in Yuko san's guide, in Ikebukuro which was nearby!
