Right I know this could be like asking how long a piece of string is 😂
I'm close (I think & hope!) to being offered a job in London. Assuming the package all lines up I'd accept it, and up sticks and move to London.
Whereabouts would I want to live?
Here's what I know / think :
Commute would be to the area around one of the mainline stations, so pretty much anywhere on the Tube map works for the commute ..... which hasn't narrowed my search down!
I'd be on what I consider decent money, even for London. However have to consider costs of running my existing house, in case I can't get it rented out, when it comes to working out what I can afford in rent in London. Have had a quick look on RightMove, I think I'm going to be looking at a one (maybe 2) bedroom flat. Ideally no more than £1500 pcm, maybe a wee bit more, certainly at least until I settle and know how much I've got to play with.
Otherwise no ties to any area. The few friends & acquaintances I have in London are spread all over. It's just me, no partner or kids.
I'm quite sociable - will make an effort to join clubs / groups / meet-ups but no specific interests.
I want "safe" - as much as anywhere is. "Nice" area but I want to feel like I live "in London" (although the tourist in me will leave the party sharpish 😂)
Any thoughts wise ones? Thanks
