Hello everyone! welcome to my channel i make videos about lifestyle, home tours, makeup tutorials, hairstyles for long and short hair, beauty hacks, trendy fashion look books, DIYs and home remedies! I post weekly vlogs capturing my adventures around my 3rd world country life :) SUBSCRIBE!
Your UK vlog literally gave an old Zoella kind of vibe when she used to sit on her bed and just talk. Maza aya he dekh k. The atmosphere looks peaceful. ❤
Sooo truee
Her old vlogs where mostly in English n i guess Anoushay was inspired by zoella 😂
@@valaititarka3318 Zoella is definitely an inspiration for anyone. But Anushay has her own style of putting things into perspective. So yeah it's a mix and match.
She once mentioned that she used to watch Zoella.
Don't worry everything will come together, you will find your routine, when Aliyaan goes to the Nursery and starts school, you will find enough time to be creative...you will learn to work around the clock...Just take it easy and slow and enjoy every moment of learning new things... good luck 😊
Absolutely loved the way you shot and edited this video! You'll get the hang of things soon IA. Can't wait to see more London content!
So excited to see this new chapter of yours. Been following you since 4 years and now this. Honestly it makes me emotional 😢🥹
Hey anushae I’ve been watching you since around 2016. That’s when I was at school and going through a rough time feeling isolated and lonely. Your videos made me feel much better. I’m always praying for your happiness and success in this world and the next. ❤
I am not from UK but as a busy mom, ordering groceries online has been LIFE CHANGING. #1 you can see options and prices online and 2nd save so much time…you can earn points and redeem…. I’m sure there’s something like that there 😊
Loved your vlogs, just keep posting these more. You emit good vibes and it feels good to see you.
Best of luck !! INSHALLAH everything will be alright
Anushae welcome to the UK, I’m so excited for you I’ve literally been watching you’re vlogs from the beginning and now you’re living so close to me!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Please explain how you guys found a place to stay there and this regards! Good luck to you. Have been watching you since you were at your mom’s home… excited about this new chapter.
Excited to see new vlogs from this anushae😊
I have come back to Anushe's channel after 2 years. Now I am concistant
You are being so much positive, really love your energy :)
You can go to mum and toddler groups in your area, there are many activities for kids in local libraries too.
That strawberry yogurt is double cream. Dont worry u will get used to it. If you make friends in playgroups etc. it will get better xx
Yes we found that out after we opened it and I was soooo confused by that
I have moved from the UK to Lahore and it was crazy journey getting to know each and everything. I was confused at first too and then I found my way and now after 9 years I feel like I was born and brought up here. You will get the hang of it too إن شاء الله! I visit home every summer and then I realise that now Pakistan is ‘home’ and Uk is just a ‘vacation’. This world is a funny place, from one place to another. Wishing you all the best to this new chapter x
More power to you sis 👏
Why u move back?
Keep it up love💕 Stay Motivated💕 Once You’re Settled You’re Gonna Love It💕
Hahahah anushae. The intro, I swear. I grew up with you. I found you when I had just gotten done with my matric, and yes, VPN youtube, and i was like wow, Pakistani creator, so cool. I j recently graduated as a doctor and you have a family. Such a long way, but the connection is alike.
Sameeeee🤭❤️
Yessss it’s been quite the journey! Congratulations on becoming a doctor 🎉
My sister told me about Anoushay’s channel back in 2016 n I used to think she the actress uroosa Bilal qureshi’s wife😂😂 later on I found out yeh do different girls hain 😂😂
O@@valaititarka3318

Loving your new vlogs as much as I used to love your older vlogs ❤❤❤ I truly connect with your vibe❤ it's been 8 years of journey with you Anushae☺️☺️
Awweww❤😊
Lovedddd it!!
Hi.. that was a lovely vlog..and emotional as well..reminds me of my time of moving to Australia with our daughter.she was missing the people around and was very aggressive at times.The only thing I would say is take it easy..You will get used to everything around, just keep ur peace and enjoy the new beginning 😊
this was such a wholesome and emotional vlog to watcg
I have been watching your vlogs and videos on insta since covid time, and what I find you always have positive vibes to try every thing new. To be honest I enjoy this vlog bcz it reminds me of me time when I came here and was trying to find out things and exploring new place so that I can adjust easily
it's gonna be fine soon, In sha Allah. may Allah swt make it easy for you & grant barakah in your time 🫂❤️
Now I'm loving your vlogs more nd more 😍
I lived for 5 years in uae with 2 toddlers and life was all about learning and enjoying
Hey Anoushae! when you figure out a way to get that balance, then do let us all know!
All the best !!
Hammersmith is one of the nicer areas of west London, so good going 🎉
Asda tesco lidl the best for daily grocery... And if you like rolly Polly or desserts then do vist m&s. They have some of the most yummiest desserts.
Dear Anushae,
I have been watching ur videos since 2019.
Welcome to London i have had the same feelings when i first moved to UK from Pakistan back in 2005 in my teenage with very little English.
First 2 years were emotional rollercoaster for me the language, the weather, culture, even food s taste and just everything. But Alhumdulilah slowly but surely I settled well. So i wish you the best too. Enjoy learning even i made blunders but now i look back and cherish those moments. So All the best dear. Take baby to children centres around your local area they are everywhere and free sessions next to govt funded primary schools
Much love and Duas for u
Thank you so muchhh
Like the new creativity in vlogs ... Keeps going 😊😊😊😊
So mesmerising ❤
I'm 21 and it's been the 4th month of my marriage
Sometimes there's a lot to do ,like you're burdened with the work load, you've to manage your studies and so many things at one time,also being unhealthy sometimes because of the tough routine, But butt I want to say Big thanks to you I learn a lot from your every single vlog, your energy, Patience with your toddler, loving relationship with your spouse
It's just something which I think I really need to practice in my daily life to be calm and prioritize one thing at a time.
Yaa thank you for always coming up with high energy and for the motivation.
You will come around Inshallah Genuinely waiting to see more Content excited for it!! I am happy for youuu
Just moved Norway same like you from Karachi and now, going to be an year but all the process that you show is very relatable 😊, Everything will eventually in your hands!
London vlogs are❤ soothing
Anushay dw love♥️ you are way too stronger for all this you will insha'Allah adjust and balance your routine soon. Sending you more power hugs and lots of duas on your way all the from pak❤️ we love watching you 💖lez gewwwww✨❤️
Free range eggs,whole organic milk from supermarket. Find a desi store for Lentils, rice and fresh ginger/ garlic/ coriander mint etc.
If you are boycotting,avoid Tesco and Marks and Spencers,Mcd,KFC, and Starbucks.That list isn't exhaustive.
Check labels for alchohol, on suitable for vegetarians, labelled food.For halal meat try and find one that is HMC certified.Apart from that,you're doing great considering that you've just arrived.Get the train to Windsor,it's a lovely day out.Alyan will love the ducks on the river.x
Oh this was super helpful! Thank youuu
@@AnushaeSaysAldi,Asda for your weekly grocery, Sainsbury's and Waitrose plus Co-Op are not worth it. Find a desi warehouse kind of place for halal shopping that will be cheaper for packet masalas, meat etc as they have plenty of offers all the time. Connect to your local mosque for ladies and men circles, that will help you in gaining so much knowledge for settling down. Check your local library and leisure centre for various baby classes and activities
You can take Alyan to play sessions in your area. The health visitor will tell you about it when she'll meet you for Alyan
As you are in the Hammersmith area, try Mahdi restaurant. It’s amazing!
Lol feels like old Anushae vibe is back in London 😂😍 Can't wait to see best best side of yours more ❤️
Yes baita everything will be easy. But one advice that in kitchen u do thing at that time like wash plates n otjer things . Cook food for 2 3 days.
Clothes or other thkng keep them in there place that moment . Nk need to mess up.
I have been living in US since 15 years now, That’s how I manage my house without any help. I also don’t have any family or any help here 😭
Firstly, You don’t clean your house everyday. You just clean the mess. Deep cleaning can be done 2 times in a week.
Cooking, The day you are not doing deep cleaning you can cook multiple dishes and freeze them. If you like bbq you should marinate chicken and freeze it, or you can make any other pakistani food and freeze it. Don’t need to cook everyday. I cook multiple dishes in one day and it helps me through the week. Laundry you can just do once a week 😄 so maybe you can pick and choose the days you want to focus on these things and on other days you can do whatever you want. 😃 My first 3 days of the week are pretty busy with housework but rest of the days i plan my things out.
Welcome 🎉❤
Anoushay ... this video is so informative, motivating, eyeopening for so many people out there. Keep up this sharing of how with family and toddler one can cope up. ❤
May allah help u
Such a well edited vlog i must say, probably one of my favorite videos from this channel. Keep going!!
Yay! Thank you!
Grocery shopping online is a pain as you need to book the slots ahead at least 2 days before the actual delivery date!!
Where is your white bedsheet from? Did you get it made in Pakistan or bought there?
In uk if you want to have halal meat always go for hmc certified sign its a yellow circled sticker with hmc halal written on it.and always go for restaurants with same sign too.
Eggs free range(non free range are caged hen eggs) milk full fat(blue top) for myself and hubby we get semi skimmed(green top without the fat). Asda and aldi are best places to do groceries other supermarkets are alot more pricier! Look for halal marking or suitable for vegetarians! And lots of pakistani stores (cash and carry)around london just google to find one near you for meat and masalay and lentis etc! Fruit and veg u can buy from there or supermarkets pretty much the same! Once you explore different shops you will come to know what suits you taste! Oh and tea bags PG tips or even better is Yorkshire tea bags! Hope this helps! Xxx
Hey be careful with fish&chips sometimes beer is used in the batter and products are fried in the oil as non-halal meat x
Love your vlogs ❤
Now that you’re in UK , I feel like I’m watching my self..
Give yourself time to adjust…it’s a massive lifestyle change especially as you have no support which you are used to…focus on getting a routine with your son as that will help..early to bed and early to rise and getting out with him at least once a day when the weather is good, find a local toddler group for interaction with other children & don’t be to hard on yourself
Loving ur London journey. Although we aren’t living your life , we can feel all the emotions you are feeling. I couldn’t imagine moving away to a different country, esp with a kid! Just buy any blue top milk ( blue top is full fat and tasty ) get a Greek yoghurt for your cooking. Find a local desi shop for your desi grocery, or even Asda/tesco do all desi food. If anyone can relocate successfully to the uk it’s you! Wishing you lots of happiness ahead ameen. Make sure you sign up to mobile banking to make your finances easier. ❤
Asda ,Tesco,Aldi ,Home bargains are very good shops for groceries and also there r so many pakistani , Indian cash and carries from where u can buy desi stuff but be careful these cash and carries r expensive as compared to to these English shops
Don't worry dear Allah pak with us alway ...and hr chez manage b hojay gi inshallah
Awwwwwwwww if you need anything ordered here to help. It’s not easy being in a new place. We have lived England all our lives so very much used to it but I know it can be over whelming
I love ur vlogs❤
Congratulations🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊
Also, if you are going to do full time content creation, you might consider putting your kid into a daycare. It will help him to get adjusted easily and you will also get time for yourself. Because you would need a lot of time adjusting home, completing house chores and manage family and your full time job.
Hi Anushae. Welcome to London. Wish you all the best to you and to your family on this new journey.
I also moved to London from Karachi. All my family is here. It’s definitely an adjustment but In Sha Allah, it will fine with time.
I don’t live much far from where you live. I live in Lewisham. If you are looking to expand your friend circle then you can count on me as well. Would be lovely to meet you. I have a young family and also nephews so Aliyan will definitely have some company. Take care and have fun ❤❤
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Aliyan at 15:00 , my heart 🫠🫠😅
Oh no, no sweety that's single cream not yoghurt! Bless you!!! ❤❤ you will soon get the hang of it all!
Challenges make you much stronger.....you can do it 💪 InshaAllah
Aww I was just watching your vlog take your little one to mother and toddler group that will make him feel better
Anushae its so crazy what im.going to tell.you, but it took me a whole year to remember in which court was my house, when i came in uk. All houses looked the same. Hahahaha. Major change, being a tourist is another thing but to live and learn everything abt a country its a soo overwhelming. Take your timeee. Especially london is a big.cityy, its surely busier, crowded,
You will be fine. It takes time. I came to Canada with 2 kids. Figured out everything. After 2 years, things are much better.
Grocery shopping is a hastle. You know, when I went back to Pakistan after a year, I could not understand the process of grocery shopping in Pakistan, I forgot the brands and all.
So yeah! Also, we are so used to get things done in Pakistan easily, but here, ik dodh bhi khud kharedne jao. E
All the best 😊
Welcome to London
Well that’ll be soo fun when you’ll realise you picked up cream thinking it to be yogurt 🤪 we all struggled when moved here… let me tell you grocery is going to be one of the most fun activities you gonna do here 🤪♥️♥️
I seriously was soooo confused when I opened it 😅
Just be mindful of your surroundings when you are out and about . Heard a lot of phone snatching going on in London by guys on e-bikes.
Hi anushae ... welcom to England 😊...everything will be get on track soon inshallah n you will enjoy it...
Bus if to get over udasi😢of Pakistan... try to feel it like peace and not udasi 😊😊.. Best of luck
U can do it one mom can have 100 hands All the best
OMG im literally in the same boat sitting in wembley london loll..going out alone has become an event for me to exactly for the reason you mentioned its too overwhleming like how to suddenly start taking the bus how people do it all eik dum say is beyond my understanding :')
Nice vlog don't worry u will be adjust soon
Ap shopping aldi se kar lain fruit veg ki milk sainsbury aur tesco se lay liya kren tesco rat 11 bjy tk open rehta hai. Pakistani shop se apko sari chezn mil jain ge apko agr apko kisi chez main help ki need ho u can ask anytime 😊
regarding groceries ALDI and ASDA are good supermarkets. Marks & Spencers , LIDL are on BOYCOTT LIST.
Ok thanks for letting me know this!
@@AnushaeSaysalso lots of Pakistani supermarkets...London is very expensive.. Birmingham has a lot of Pakistani cuisines Turkish greek Chinese etc it's very versatile
Yrr anooshay ek req ha please do grocery haul video i love watching a content like that❤️
Aww hugs n love your way. It takes time but will soon settle. Have any qs just ask away!
Write down the notes and make weekly plans
Like washing clothes once a week or max twice a week
Prioritise things but we love u anu u can do it
Wish you best of lucky 😊
Plus I really want you to post TH-cam videos more ❤❤❤
is electricity expensive in london? and normal for everyone to use electric stoves there
Its a learning you can do it
We shifted to Canada with a 18 month old from a full house of people to our kid seeing only 2 people. It was the most difficult part of my life because he could just not adjust at all!
Ufff same I feel yaaaa
Go to asda for grocery….. you will get everything from there
Lidl is affordable ..Aldi too
Welcome to the UK. I hope you settle in well. I am happy to help if u needed. Please make sure u are checking if the yogurt is suitable for vegetarian before buying. I would recommend shopping in person whenever you can its much better. Other then that, if u want good quality grocery then go for Sainsbury’s/M&S. If u want affordable and average quality then aldi/lidl. I usually do my shopping from tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda and M&S. Whichever one is on the way home from work 😂.
Probably already figured out that was a single cream and not a strawberry yogurt.
He does need constant stimulation at this stage. If you are considering daycare, that would help.
How your husband got job in UK. Could you please explain the process or make video on it.
You are so lucky 🍀
How did you manage to find a place in London while you were in Pakistan???
Let’s gooooo
Hey anushae hope you’re well
Janoooo lots of love ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
hi anushae! the ring you're wearing at 7:08 is generally considered to to be a symbol of preveting evil eye. Such items are a sign of shirk and we should wearing them
What kind of visa are you guys on?
Get Greek Yogurt, Skimmed Milk for starters
