Your new subscriber ❤

This is London, a city with hundreds of robberies.

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss of photos and data, that's always worse than the device if its not backed up and totally gone. I only came across your channel today but I'll keep watching and please don't let this incident ruin your experience of the UK, most of us are pretty nice 🙂 Hope you have a great Christmas and Happy New Year

Another reason for separating the hot and cold water taps was to reduce the chance of scalding people should the water supply get cut off. In the past the cold water supply used to come direct from the mains and there was no cold water tank in most peoples's homes. Should there be an interruption to the water supply there was a chance that a mixer tap, especially used in a bath, could end up being a hot water tap only and hurt people. I believe that cold water tanks have been required for new properties for a number of decades but older properties may still not have one.

Brits do not do that silly switch from tap to tap. They mix it in the bowlto their own ideal for whatever they want to do instead of running gallons to waste.

It's years since I last used separate hot and cold taps. With the introduction of combi boilers loft tanks for hot water supply have mostly become a thing of the past.

This two tap is driving me nuts, just put a plug in the fucking sink not that hard.

I subscribed yesterday, after seeing your culture video. I am very sorry this happened to you! I'm sorry you lost all those photos, those memories you've lost. It seems to be certain groups of people stealing phones, and the biggest of the problem seems to be London as it's not really a problem here (East Midlands). It's a shame the Police can't/won't do anything. Other than this, i hope you have a good Christmas and a better new year! 🤞🏼🙂

Enjoy your stay in U.K. Valeriia you are always welcome.

Sometimes there isn't a plug. Sometimes the sink has a built in plugging action, and if so, what you need are the instructions. However the plug may be missing and then what you need is a plug. Keep Reacting! Bye!

The " sorry" situation is because generally British people try to avoid confrontation. So if people bump into each other and immediately say " sorry" it defuses a possible confrontation of argument of who is to blame....and life can move on. It is also an acknowledgement that we are all human and can do/ speak wrongly sometimes. So both people say " sorry" and accepts the " error" whether it was their fault or not. I think it helps in a more harmonious daily life on a crowded island 😅

We hate queues. We queue because it is expected of us to ensure we function with manners in our sardine can. Queueing is expected because it is polite, but please don’t think we love them. We hate them.

I'm new here, subscribed. Taps is simple.. put the plug in and turn on both taps until you get the temperature you want 😊 Usually in England, we don't look into each other's house, flat, etc. Great video, thanks for enjoying our country 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 Merry Christmas 🎅

I was born in England but am now living in Australia, Australians, though they will never admit it, are much like the British, similar sense of sarcastic humour, pub culture, sport, etc. I am an Australian citizen, have been for 40 years, but to most Aussies I'm still a "bloody pom". l very much enjoyed your vid even if you made me feel a little homesick, the UK will always be home to me although I'll never live there again but visit every couple of years. Good luck and God Bless Valeriia.

If any one out side britain watching this video no one is safe murders rape children are being attacked and being butchered it’s all so really expensive

We mix the water in the sink. Mixer taps are terrible.

In British culture, we don't look into each other's houses. We don't need closed curtains because nobody is looking.

Often the people outside pubs are smokers!

Good vlog, welcome to the UK. I have noticed that people from Eastern Europe seem a lot more reserved than most Brits (or maybe just me!). It does seem to change over a few years though!

Sadly, the plug is often missing. In Russia you could get one for your room from the hotel concierge.

London isn't Britain. There are hardly any British people in London.

Hot water is 60c to 65c no where near boiling.... I wash my hands under the hot water tap with no problem.. ..you must have sensitive skin

The "curtains wide open" thing is relatively new. Britain used to be renowned for having lace curtains over the lower half of every domestic window, behind which the owner could spy on what was going on outside/next door. That had to end when double glazing was installed in most homes in the last quarter of the 20th century, since no provision was made for half-curtains. Wooden frames would accept screws or nails: but not plastic or metal.

Really, the two taps thing? 21st century people incapable of working 2 taps?

great vedeo, very well explained, very good english also, and you were accurate on all of your topics, keep up the good work, wont be long till your at 1k subs, i promise

Foreigner to the UK must all move into cheep rented accommodation with landlords who are too mean to do them up. I know of no one who has two taps. Everyone has mixer taps However I have stayed in places in Holland Germany and Italy where they had separate hot and cold taps.

Very surprised about open windows. Here in the North we only open windows in summer and always close curtains when it's dark, except at the moment when we're showing off our Christmas lights and trees. The reason we say sorry even if another person bumps into us is to remind them that they ought to say sorry to us.

London is very different from the rest of the UK not least it is much more expensive. The north is much less expensive.

That was really interesting. I am English from the north east near to Newcastle but I love London and try to go there a couple of times a year. I actually studied Russian at university and have quite a few Russian friends although very few of them are still in Russia. I met up with two of them a few weeks ago and we spent four days in London. They loved it and commented on how open and pleasant people were. One of them lost her mobile phone in the Victoria and Albert Museum. I phoned her number and somebody from reception answered it. Someone had found it and handed it in. When we asked about where to go to pick it up the employee just asked which room we were in and he brought it up to us. They were very impressed. We northerners talk about how unfriendly Londoners are but that is not my experience at all. If you are nice to them they are nice back. We are all in our sixties now and on a couple of occasions on the tube we were offered seats by younger people. By the way, you CAN get mixer taps. Both in the kitchen and the bathroom all our taps are mixer taps. I can't stand the double tap thing.

You mention in another comment you will be visiting other cities in the UK, so this will not be Londoncentric vlog. OK, I'm game, so subbed. Love to see your channel grow.

Great Vlog Valeriia Thank You

I've Bought a Few Houses in my Time and the 1st job was a new Kitchen and Bathroom with Mixer Taps. I honestly don't know why they put separate hot and Cold Taps in new build. All Houses have Combi boilers now .

Many visitors to the U.K. mention the two taps but the solution is SO easy; just insert the plug and then mix the hot and cold water to the desired temperature; same outcome as a mixer tap !!

Your English is Perfect your Accent is Wonderful it Caresses my English ear .

She sounds just like an American !! MOAN, MOAN ,MOAN !! Have they ever thought that it's THEM that are different and NOT us !? Why do people move to the UK and just moan about everything !!?? If you don't like it....MOVE BACK !! What is it about " foreigners" that they can't get their heads around 2 taps !? Just put the plug in he sink and mix the water !! PRICES. What do you expect when you choose to live in London !?

Aaaaargh!! The taps conundrum. PUT THE PLUG IN. Easy. Mix the waters, Bob's your auntie's live in lover. Saves on water too.... Cool output love xx

awesome video ^^ Hope you enjoy living here!! Where i am we do keep our windows open often as a way of cooling our homes (as most people dont have AC and the house designed to keep heat in) Though we also usually close our curtains The taps thing is annoying even as someone who lives here 😭 The politeness thing is quite nice, I think the general rule is not to be a jerk like skipping queues or barging past etcc The cost varies alot!!! London is one of the most expensive places in the world to the point London has its own minimum wage because the normal minimum wage isn't enough there. The other cities here are also expensive, but nowhere near as expensive as london, and then the towns are what I personally feel more accustomed too in terms of price. I never really notice(d) that old people are more active here, but that is an interesting thing to hear! We do have alot of saying lol... tons of ones that are unique to different areas too!! Great video again! Hope you have a wonderful day!

We don't want people to see what we have inside, it's just that we want to see outside

London is not the UK.

The method used to be that you would put the plug in the sink, mix the water in the sink, wash with the water in the sink then pull the plug out.

Thank you for the very, very insightful. As a QA engineer myself trying to make a move your tips are very valuable and much appreciated

Thank you for your information! Thats was great to hear you) What if I worked for 8 months in a trade and production company producing paint and varnish products in the marketing department as a graphic designer, 5 months in souvenir production and 2 years as a freelance graphic designer, is this normal for obtaining an exception promise visa? Or do I have to work for a startup company engaged in digital development?

Thanks for sharing it with us, Valeria! I am about to accept an offer and move to London end of Feb and I would really appreciate your availability to share some tips and tricks, covering the apartment hunting topic. May I send you an email during December with some questions I would be grateful to have your feedback on? Many thanks in advance and good luck in your new journey!

The UK does have a lot of problems, but it is still a beautiful country with friendly people and amazing music and theatre.

Приятное произношение. Хотел бы я такое себе :)

How can I contact you?

🗺👍

London flat hunting is tricky, confusing and expensive. Hope it goes well.

Congratulations to you
