Accommodation in London is expensive no matter how you turn. The cheapest is to live with roommates


So .. London is certainly the most expensive city in the UK, but I most likely track with regard to jobs and everything else. I lived in smaller towns before, starting from a village near Wales, a small town in central England, and fax in a city near London and now working in London. It has beautiful regions in the rest of England, and for some of London will always be too big and full of .. so we must prepare well and decide what you would benefit more from. But here I'll write a bit about the capital ..
The first three months I felt quite lonely, even though I know people in London. This is a huge city, where are you one of a million (or, approximately 12 million), so that on the street you're amazo going their own way, in the subway are holding up their work, do not bother others who hold the general rules (unwritten rules). Of course if you need help or have to ask someone something, generally will all help, it will be very nice and polite amazo .. but, in the big city respect 'personal space'. So I recommend that if you intend to move to London, As soon as you turn into some or classes, or groups, some course or something. It's easy to meet people if you have where J
The British are generally very nice, and easiest to someone're making so-called 'chit chat' to start talking about the weather .. and often raining, so the conversations are often similar. In London, it was probably more of everything else except the British, but most are decent and Simple. Actually there are generally people are very polite, and the bass they do not like it when others do not respect .. Therefore, there is Never push right, always let people amazo turn off the subway before you start entering, always thanks to all the tapes, I was sorry to what (even if you are being pushed accidentally, each a cassette sorry. . weird, I know). Sometimes it may initially come as 'reserved' and some would even call it cold .. but it is more of a big city syndrome than anywhere amazo else .. in smaller cities are much less see it. British (by me) have great sense of humor and you can feel free to fool around with the waiters, the people in the shop, with anyone with whom you communicate .. Of course if you are moderate and do not exceed any limits.
Accommodation in London is expensive no matter how you turn. The cheapest is to live with roommates, it can be distributed to persons 2,3,4,5 .. It is quite usual, especially for people who have just moved. Prices range from around 500 for a cheap neighborhood and small accommodation, around 700/800 pounds for a nice accommodation in a nice neighborhood. Bills are about 50-100 pounds a month for electricity, gas + internet .. Of course it all depends on consumption, but so I expended on average.
Transport is quite expensive, underground most used, although there are trains and buses. In the center is the easiest underground, I pay about 120 pounds a month for zone 1 + 2 (it is in the center). Buses have all you want, but are slow and often late. They are cheaper, and in some neighborhoods have no choice but to go by bus. Remember taxis unless you are late to an interview or a flight, it's really a luxury. Now they have recently amazo started a bicycle, and that a lot of people use .. You can rent a bike for an hour or a day, and the prices are really ok, but I personally do not dare to go around London on a bicycle, I'd rather walk. Walking would really recommend it if you have the most time and energy, all the maps and everything is very well marked.
Place .. less than 1,000 pounds are not moving to London, if you do not have secured accommodation. That is, I would say a minimum. All over 20,000 pounds per year is OK place, all over 30,000 is pretty good. With less than 18,000 should know to save.
The store is already written amazo Mateo, London is very similar. Asda, Tesco, Lidl, Aldi and Iceland are quite cheap and have a lot of great choices. Sainsbury's and Morrisons are somewhere in the middle, I usually buy in Sainsbury's because it's the closest I have a good selection. Waitrose and Marks and Spencers are expensive, and to treat yourself amazo when you get a salary amazo and celebrate something .. because I really have too fine things. There are others but these are the most .. Clothing and footwear prices are quite similar to Croatia, amazo and has similar brands. Primark and New Look are quite cheap. Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, H & M and it's somewhere in the middle. Oxford Street is a paradise for shoppingholicare, I personally try to avoid it because it is always preeeeepun.
Bars are quite expensive to Croatia .. coffee range from about 2 pounds of ordinary, until almost 4 for something fancy. Here in the cafes do not sell alcohol, just coffee and cake. Alcohol is mainly going to the pub or bar. But pubs are on every corner and proper British. There are all kinds .. I can go to them at any time of the day .. except maybe for breakfast. Most sell food, so we can lunch and dinner for a very reasonable price (5-10 pounds for a main meal). In London, the drinks range from about 3 pounds of beer and 7 pounds for a custom cocktail. People usually drink beer and wine .. when the bass are going to get drunk and then drink shots of vodka and so on. On Fridays and Saturdays it comes out (although in London amazo you can go out every night), and then the center is full. Soho, Shoreditch, Picadilly .. all young (and old) people amazo with cups
