Stay at the Capsule Inn and the RV feels spacious!

Wow, what an interesting hotel concept in Japan!

1x1x2 meters for each capsule, leave your shoes at the front desk, leave your luggage & clothes in the locker (put on the robe, please), take a shower in the shower room, relax in the group lounge.

Makes sense but I'm feeling claustrophobic just looking at that capsule for sleeping/watching TV.

Ciao Baby feels spacious already! Tessa p.s.  Thanks for finding that quote by Thoreau, Andrew.  I went to find it for my post and found 238 quotes by him, but not that one.
And then I started highlighting them and got distracted.

But I'll include a few quotes in subsequent posts just for fun!

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.  Live the life you have imagined."

Reminds me of the "coffin" buses we saw on our last trip to Alaska.
 That was the name we gave to them because, like the picture in the link above, the busses had little "rooms" that slid out where the people slept.
They reminded us of the storage units you see in morgues on TV shows such as CSI.
 I'm with you Tessa:  there's no way I could ever sleep in something that confining!

"1x1x2 meters for each capsule"

Tessa
 Many couples sleep in the overhead bunk, which is less than 2 meters wide so, a 1X1X2m capsule, for one, sounds about right.
After several hundred nights of sleeping in small boats, campers and backpacking tents: anyplace that is flat, warm, and soft and has enough room to stretch out is fine with me.
Our overhead bunk is now as comfortable a place to sleep as home, just a little smaller...which sometimes leads to good things .

Enjoy what little sleep you seem to get.
