    Agreed not to carry the whole kitchen with you but carrying utensils from India helps initially, 2 plates, 2 steel glasses, 2 cups , 1 kadhai. etc. The thing is, everything will be available there but at the start you wont be shopping off for your kitchen items, I think you should address this point as your opinion rather than hard liner - "Pack the bare minimum".
    But this video really helped in other aspects !!

      I guess it also depends on where you’ll live as soon as you move. If you are a student, you are absolutely right, one must carry a glass, plate etc but if you plan on staying initially in an airbnb or a hotel, these things would be available and it buys you time to go buy them for your own place. Hope that helps. Thank you for sharing this!! Appreciate it.

    why should one spend extra money on items that you already own? It's easier to add an extra luggage for 20 euros that spend 10 times more to purchase duplicates of those items in UK

    • @AbsolutelyAshika
      @AbsolutelyAshika  2 года назад +1

      A lot of people don't have the need for things like thick warm clothes that are required in the UK. Rather than buy new ones there, buy them here and save the space for things you really need. You'll realise how much you have when you try shutting your suitcase.

    The amazon shopping list links are more useful to assess and decide to buy stuffs. Really appreciate the time and effort involved to bring this list.😊😊😊

    I live in UK since 1968. I have often brought back pressure cookers from India, and within couple of years, the handle would break, or it wouldn’t work. I have bought pressure cookers from here too, but my vote goes to Amazon’s own brand.
    When I arrived, we couldn’t get everything. Indian shops were in major cities only, we had to drive for hours to do the shopping, may be twice a year. Now you name it, you will get it. While I agree with Ashika about not to bring utensils etc from India, I wonder whether new arrives would have enough £ (British currency) to do the shopping straight away?
    I brought a suitcase full of saris with me as I was newly married, but didn’t use any as I found it too cold.
    UK is a very good country to live in, but you will enjoy it more if you integrate with the local people regularly, don’t just be friends with people from India.

      Funnily, one of my pressure cookers survived. The other didn't. Sigh. And don't get me started on the sarees. I never used even one.

    I am planning to migrate to Nottingham.
    I would like to know few things, if you can help with these:
    1. Approximately how much can be the rent of an accomodation? I am moving with Spouse and 2 kids.
    3. In a furnished house, do we get all kind of utensils available? What can be missing except pressure cooker.
    4. Is there any site or app you can refer from where I can get some idea about the accomodation?

      Hi Sandipan. I suggest you check this video on finding houses in the UK.
      ruclips.net/video/xc1seUozTIs/видео.html
      There are a bunch of websites that are mentioned that will give you an idea of how much it will cost you.
      Most unfurnished houses come with a fridge, a washing machine and drier and a gas stove/ oven. Some have a dish washer. I suggest you buy the rest here

    • @AbsolutelyAshika
      @AbsolutelyAshika  Год назад

      Hi there. Most houses come with what they call white goods which include a fridge, a gas stove mostly with an oven, a washing machine & dryer and some houses also have a dishwasher.
      And thank you for the kind words.

    Im considering a UK move from India. Im still at information gathering phase and wanted to know what are the best cities for IT jobs.
    Not sure howz the situation after covid, but does UK have remote jobs or is that a rare condition. Reason is i can always move to a cheaper place such as Birmingham to manage my expenses.
