What Japanese stuff do you have at home? of course you maybe have a Japanese tv, or something like this. but how about other things, do you maybe have a bonzai tree, or a small statue from a geisha, Japanese Dvd's etc.

A couple of Japanese things that I am having at home:
1. Japanese mobile phone from my wife.
2. Lucky charms
3. a small character set of a Japanese wedding
4. Some books about Japan, travel book, about the princes, Geisha, etc.
5. A japanese condom, .. uuu size is not good, but fun to have.
6. Some Japanese dvd's, I used to have all Takashi Kitano movies, but I lost some.

It would be quicker to list the things in my home which are not Japanese.
 
I have a lot of Japanese stuff I have at home.
In Australia:
I have a Japanese doll which is a gift from my uncle. I got several Japanese items sent to me by my Japanese pen friends when I was in high school. They are a purse the Japanese ladies use when they dressed in kimono. Some origami papers, Japanese wind chimes, Japanese letters sent by my pen friends from Japan with Japanese stamps on them...etc.

I used to have a Japanese windmill on a stick but it was broken due to my brother's Indonesian friend who rushed into my room without my permission and later on tried to deny his intentions by saying he thought it was my brother's room.

Yet my room in my home in Australia is in lavender and the furnitures in the room are very feminine. He didn't replace it or compensate it for something else. But he never came back after that.

Here in France:

I have many Japanese bowls, Japanese chopsticks, Japanese ingredients for making Japanese foods and sushi utensils for making sushi.
