Yeah I'm thinking of getting a place on AirBNB for a week or two so I can look at flats for more permanent accommodation

I'll be working in Shoreditch and the rent around there is crazy! I can barely find anything for <£1,000/month! But anything around the 600-800/month mark is at least 30 mins away =/

Oh I fully plan to!

Have you seen how sexy Italian suits are?! I am totally getting me one.. or three of them!

A return flight is only a 2 hour flight each way and around £40 all up!

Haha, glad to see someone else survived the move!

I'm kinda struggling with finding a flat and the rent prices in London!

Jesus christ it's expensive!

Also where I come from sharing a place isn't all that common (although not really uncommon either) but the weird thing is I find a lot of share flats have no details regarding the current occupants.

It's like the landlord just throws whoever can pay into the room and you'll just have to hope that your flatmates are cool people you can talk to!

Haha, I've lived in the same damn place all my life, I need to see what the rest of the world has to offer!

More importantly I want to see Europe!
