Thank you so much!!! Helped me a LOT. I'm moving to Russia and after it i'll have to move to Italy. First time moving with familiy. It's a HUGE mess here hahaha Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing! This is one of the more REAL conversations on moving abroad. It’s not too sugarcoated and packed with really good insight!Thank you! How much would you say someone should save up if they want to move to London? I am currently trying to create an emergency fund for this type of transition. Any kind of advice would be really helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for your kind words! So it really depends on what you’re coming to London for. If you’re coming to study you’ll have to save more but if you’re working you will have a salary. I’d say the most you have to save for is a deposit for the flat and first month rent. I’d say monthly rent if you share a flat is 600-800 pound a a month. And then deposit is usually a month rent on top of that. But remember that’s just rent. Not utilities, or council tax, or internet etc. I’d say a few thousand would be a good start for the first few months. Good luck
This was so helpful, thank you!! I've been wanting to move out of the states for some time now and am finally in the position to plan it out. I took notes on this video and appreciate how clear you made it :)
Thank you for this video! This was extremely helpful and gave me a basic understanding of the steps to take for this. I've been planning on moving abroad for a long time and I hopefully want to next year but the problem is that I live with my parents who are completely unsupportive and against this and don't want to help me in any way so I have to find out how to do this on my own but thank you for making this whole process seem easier.
I love your video, you explained everything like it was so easy. I am planning to move to the UK or Germany in a couple of years when I finish my degree, but I wasn't sure, until now that I saw your video. I live in Mexico since I was born, but I am also German, and I was afraid of making a big decisition like moving there (since I don't know any German). Thank you so much
I may move back to Berlin some day. I was there in Berlin from Nov68-Nov 1972 in USAF at Templehof. I lived in Zehlendorf and then Dahlem. Miss that city. Thanks for this video /very informative
How much should someone save if theyre moving back to the UK and already a British citizen? And is it better to work for a company where you currently live and just transfer rather than looking for an entirely new job ?
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. I’m not sure if I’ll return to the US soon. I’ve always said over the years it depends on my work situation and for now I’ve got a great job in London so I’m likely going to stay for a while longer 😊
@@AllAboutAnika this was a very great and helpful video, you say u live in London, thats exactly where I would like to move to from California, but I still have so many questions that I rather ask someone like yourself with the experience other then looking all over google 😅
I won’t lie and say it’s easy but it’s not impossible. I found two different tech companies to sponsor me. So doable. But also now post brexit it actually might be easier for companies to sponsor Americans.
@@busybee400 I actually got a reply from the hiring manager for my job in London and she’s having our US HR help me get started with how to transfer! I’m gonna check in this morning for updates!
i just turned 18 earlier this month. and i want to move from UK to Califronia😭. This year i'm gonna sign up for the green card lottery and hope i win next year and they accept me after my interview. I'd love to move in 2026 as soon as i get my visa🤞🏻
Question, do you have to eventually apply for citizenship in the country you live in after staying there for a certain amount of time? I know you would have to if your final decision is to live there pernamintly and be involved in with it's system like voting there? If you apply for citzenship in that country, does that mean you are no longer considered a U.S citizen if that country does not do dual citizenship? Are the moving companies who would move your items including your veheicle overseas associate with airlines? Do you know any companies who move your items long distance within the country and overseas? If yes, can you please name them? Do you know any international job application websites?
Yes you can apply for citizenship after a certain number of years. For an American it’s after 6 years. Which is what I did. No I didn’t need to give up my US citizenship. I’m a dual citizen because my country allows that. I don’t know any company but I would say you should ask companies because many companies do offer relocation packages. I searched for all my jobs on LinkedIn. I hope this helps. Good luck!
Yes. If they can relocate you or give you a relocation budget it’s easier to go through your company. And if your company is already sponsoring your visa then it might be best to ask your company for help first.
@@AllAboutAnika Awesome thank you! Will reach out to them about this after holiday. I’m 31 and have been trying to gunfire out to move to London for years. Tired of being afraid and pushing it off. I also subbed, I’m a small creator too so I totally understand!

What did you work as in London? And is it hard to find a job there? What about the rent prices?
How much should someone save if theyre moving back to the UK and already a British citizen? And is it better to work for a company where you currently live and just transfer rather than looking for an entirely new job ?
Great video, do you see yourself returning to the US anytime soon?

@@AllAboutAnika Hey! Do you feel as though it is very difficult to find a UK job to sponsor you for a work visa?
I won’t lie and say it’s easy but it’s not impossible. I found two different tech companies to sponsor me. So doable. But also now post brexit it actually might be easier for companies to sponsor Americans.

My company is remote and has HQ in London. Should I consult with them first?
Yes. If they can relocate you or give you a relocation budget it’s easier to go through your company. And if your company is already sponsoring your visa then it might be best to ask your company for help first.

Did you know German language before moving to Germany?
I did not. I learned some while living there. I worked in English but learned German after work. I’d say most Germans know quite a bit of English as they learn it from a very young age.
it is 2021
Thanks
