Well i am living in UK right now in a town called Luton in bedfordshire .
Life is a bit slow over here when you compare it with other cities like london and Manchester. one thing to take care off is that everything from Food to electronic stuff is expensive in this country , no matter what people say sitting in pakistan . it IS expensive . If u are a desi food lover like me then expect spending around 150-200+ pounds monthly IF you are buying from restaurants . Its always cheap if u cook yourself . Now as i am living in a shared apartment it only takes like 50-60 pounds MAX to buy stuff from tesco or sainsburry and then later cook at home.
If you are a gamer then this place is a total rip off for you . an original DVD game at store would cost you no less then 30-40 pounds which if u compare with a 40 DOLLAR game in USA is DAMN expensive (Conversion rates) .
Everything else is good to go . you have to get a descent part time work if you want to stay and enjoy stuff around , But again getting work is problem here for students . I was lucky enough to get work at a good position in a hotel right away . During christmas times its good to apply for work at different stores in malls . But dont expect work to be available for you , its you who have to find it .
Weather is effed up as what i expected .
My suggestion is to someone coming here is to select another place i.e USA , Australia or canada if u are lucky enough coz of their strict Visa policies now
Note : if u are a person who easily get home sick then this place isnt for you . UK is all about giving more and expecting less . you know what i mean :mushy: . Best of luck
