The Japanese population is certainly one of the most densely populated in the world. They would surely have to accommodate and use every inch of space properly, both inside and outside of the home. This means that you have to simplify your life in order to live long and with less stress. Chaos triggers stress, and stress triggers diseases. The Japanese have invented numerous organization hacks that will help you achieve the “less is more” thing at home.
