Slippery Rock natives make TV debut on 'House Hunters'
After three years stationed in West Texas, Nicholas Hufnagel excitedly transferred to Tokyo, Japan.
“I was coming to the end of my window in Texas and wanted to do something big,” Hufnagel, 26, an Air Force maintenance officer currently working in the Middle East, wrote in an email.
“Japan was by far the most exciting option of bases available, and I was lucky enough to get it.”
He flew his little brother Jack Hufnagel, a UI/UX designer who currently lives in the Slippery Rock area, out in the hopes that he would move there, too.
The Hufnagels' five-day, house hunting adventure in Japan is captured in HGTV's “House Hunters International” episode “Operation Get Little Bro to Move to Tokyo” that first aired Sept. 25 and marked the first episode in Season 148.
This is an excerpt from a story that appears in Friday's Butler Eagle.
