always curious to know… what do you like to spend your money on and how does this compare to what you spend in a week ?! 👀
I spend a lot on food too 🤭
way more than I spend in London. Generally aside from2 days of tube fares and meals at work which is £23.30 for both days in total or add on about another 2 or so for cost of tea bags ,cereals and milk for drinks and breakfast at work I spend around £50 a week if that.
Aaaa your content is so fun and enjoyable to watch!! This channel is a gem.
aw, this makes me so happy, thank you !! 💘
Having moved to London around the same time as you, I've really enjoyed watching your video's !! Great inspiration for things to do around here, too :-)
ah, what a coincidence, i’m so glad ✨ hope you’re settling in well 💘
Great vid! Loved the pub pup
thank you!! me too 🐕😇💘
Awwww I so wanna bump into you here around East L! Been loving your videos! ❣️ xx
oooh, so glad you’ve been enjoying the videos, thanks for watching ✨
This is so fun to see! I live in Portland, OR and food is sooo much more expensive here compared to London. I don’t know the last time I had a lunch that was less than $13. I’m jealous!
so glad you enjoyed the video 💘 that's really interesting about the cost of living in portland, would not have expected!
OMG Love all the bake goods! Yum🎉 good to know what you spend and so good to be low power user❤
yes, so tasty! thanks for watching 💘
first!
❤
So helpful!
so glad! thanks for watching ✨
Great video :) I live in DC and would love to try living in London at some point. I was also wondering where you got your houndstooth coat? It's lovely!
thanks so much for watching 💘 my coat is from scotch & soda - it's from a few seasons ago but they have lots of other lovely coats ✨
YOLO! enjoy London as much as you can, this is a wonderful city for young professionals. You will have enough time in your life to save money and spend on boring things.
haha indeed, love that energy ✨ thanks for watching!
That’s literally the worst advice if you want to build wealth. But we are on internet and everyone has a opinion. So YOLO
@@PSILOCYBIN. They are so young to start worrying building wealth while living their best lifre abroad. When you are expatriated in an other city, far away from home, you know that is for a short period of time, so it is better to enjoy the city, discover the different cuisines and socialize. What is the interest to move 24 hours away from home to do nothing? In addition a vault never follow a hearse!
You're so lucky to live in Hackney (my fav part of London). Currently living in South London which has its perks too. Have you tried Ozone coffee ☕️ ? They do amaaaazing brunches!
yeah, lots of great spots in the south !! agreed, ozone is great but always a huge waitlist on weekends haha 🫠
absolutely love spending my money on food 🍞🍲
hehe, the best! 🍜🍪😇
I love your videos! And I’d love to know the name of the places in this video, seems super nice places!
thank you so much! agreed, i usually try to name the places but there was a lot going on already with the prices in this video 🙈 are there any particular places you'd like to know about and i can let you know here?
🙌🏻
Thank you!
New here to this channel. You’re great at making videos and inspiring! Interesting take you have on, “what I spend in a week in London”. The question asked previously on what I spend my money on and how does this compare to in a weekly timeframe would be hot chocolate at the moment of about $6.00 a week.
hey, welcome to the channel! so glad you're here 🤗 love a hot chocolate fund for you! over the winter i became pretty obsessed with a Mork hot chocolate each week so i think my weekly spending would look similar haha 🍫 as summer comes it might be more of an iced matcha/chai, do you also find your drink order changes by the season?
@@georgiadoust That’s pretty cool that you like hot chocolate as well! Each season is a bit different but it’s been consistent overall with a lot of variety in between herbal hot tea or just hot chocolate. One of my favorite treats during the summertime would be sipping on an iced tea after a long hot day.
@@ellaborodkina3917 love that, all incredible beverages haha bring on summer and iced tea!! 🌞
Still Cheap in London as compared here in San Francisco, California. A one bedroom in San Francisco is $5,000 a month plus utilities.
Wow!
Sis your audio was kind of low when you didn’t have voice over 😢
What do you do for a profession?
I spend way too much on eating out! I do a Sainos delivery as well but I try and get my fruit and veg from Vic Park market on Sunday since it’s always better quality, usually a sourdough from Pavilion as well. Bit random but do you and Liam send any money back home for super contributions? Bit worried I’m screwing myself over by not doing it but apparently pensions here can be transferred home in some cases, hoping that’s fine 🤷♂️
nice, sounds like you can pick up a lot of food for the home when you’re out and about ✨ good question, we don’t currently but it’s very high on the list of things to do !! we calculated that we had to top up our Australian super with $x so that interest wouldn’t eat it up… we also looked into transferring the pension home and at the time we could only find one fund that would let us to do that (but neither of our work allowed us to choose it as our pension provider) so i think ours is going to be tied up here… let me know if you find a solution though! i would be very interested in knowing ☺️
actually a little less than I expected 🤑
hahaha, not sure if that’s good or concerning? 🥲
Can you please let us know the energy efficiency rating of your place? Looking to get an idea of how much energy will cost depending on the rating. Thanks!
hey there, our place has a 'B' rating ✨ if it helps, we also have double glazed windows which i think is a game changer and this machine that redistributes the heat from the bathroom to the rest of the home (i explain in my flat tour video) 🙌 all the best for finding an energy efficient home!
@@georgiadoust Thanks Georgia! Appreciate the tips and advice. Your videos have been very helpful in preparing for the move to London!
so glad, thank you!
So LONDON IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN AUSTRALIA.
Apart from rent it is cheaper to live in London than to live in the SE 50 minutes from London
