I would enjoy these more if you let each person explain their apartment before moving to the next apartment. Splicing each section together is annoying and I lose track of which apartment I'm looking at.
Yeah. Exactly.
Agreed! I hope they switch to this format
Agreeed I lost interest
Yes!!
Agree... no need to splice unless they all live in the same building and it's a comparison of how they arranged their spaces, etc.
$3,800 pounds a month yikes
But the shared flat with 16 ppl giving me anxiety
@@nigelmarvin1387 its in £ pounds, maybe its a typo
Yeah the bathrooms looked dirty. Her room was so messy and cluttered. I get stressed looking at those shared spaces.
Well, I think the girl is paying more for the parking space and the studio than for her room so that is why she is sharing with so many people... I mean I live in London and I share a flat with 2 other friends in Maida Vale (Zone 2-1, close to Paddington) and I'm paying £700 for a good-sized room and the bathroom and kitchen are good and clean too
@@nigelmarvin1387 pounds sterling
OMG! Same!! I got such anxiety seeing that commune 😟 too much clutter and just got too much going on
As a Londoner - none of these flats look like any homes I've ever lived in, or seen.. maybe the Clapham one... maybe. Personally, think it's a really odd representation of London apartments :/
I was just about to make this comment too.
Actually they looked like all the ones I viewed (except that 4K one!). The warehouse one is really common in North London, creatives love it there and they're known for the best parties 😁 Weird they didn't show any standard houses though.
I used to live in that warehouse. Its a pretty popular/trendy thing to do now in london
SAME! especially the Earls Court apartment, which is a very rich and posh place to live and the residents there do not mix with other classes.
@@marinaelgueta443 Earl's Court used to be pretty grungy and full of bedsits and hostels for Aussies, Kiwis and South African backpackers and students. Now the area is too expensive and they have moved out to Clapham and other places. Since being gentrified, Earl's Court is now full of expats from France (overflow from Little Paris of South Kensington), Spain and Italy and quite a few Americans who can't afford Notting Hill or Holland Park. It is not really a posh place - there are still many social housing for the poor and working class while the middle classes are hanging on by the skin of their teeth.
Who’s idea was it to mix all of the apartment rooms up? I forgot which was what half way and stopped watching.
The editing is a mess
Apparently, it was a factory in the '80s, someone bought it and transformed it into a multi-spacial thingy, 20 people each paying him 680...great money if you ask me lol
@@emmru7073 She was talking about the editing and sequence of the film.
Same
This could have worked if they used the names of the neighborhoods to identify the flats, but instead they used the names of the residents, which didn’t help at all with my confusion 😂
19 people sharing only 3 bathrooms sounds stressful!
And kind of disgusting
Lol yeah totes. I wonder if the fact that they're all creatives helps - like if they're all working from home or have flexible working times etc there's not a mad rush at 8am aha
Introvert's Worst Nightmare
@@nix2747 extroverts too!!
Are we sure that house isn't just a game of the Sims lol
The Earl's Court flat is literally one large room with some dividers and a mezzanine, girl you've been robbed
Exactly hahaha
Also, there is no way to block out the light. How is that child getting to sleep?
And how dangerous that loft could be-so high up-on a drunken night. Bringing my fear of heights into this of course.
THIS. I was like you pay how much for this?!?!
It's like a typical San Francisco apartment... Claiming many rooms out of truly one room haha
ahh..students, Australians and gay people....the rowdy people
hahahahah its trueeeee
love it tho
sounds like a mood....lol
Haha, hello from Clapham ;)
As an Australian, I agree
as a born n bred Londoner, it hurts knowing having an average job and renting on your own is pretty much impossible. I've grown up in zone 2 (but closely bordered with zone 1) and to know that I'd have to move further out where I'm not used to the quieter suburban areas or have the need to live with a partner etc to even afford a ridiculously expensive place where you can't properly save is so disheartening. But they keep making rent prices in "urban areas" so expensive and drive out the locals or they create new housing/flats again that the average Londoner can't afford, but Miss "I don't like to hear tourists with their suitcases" from America can happily come in and take.
I agree. I love the borough I grew up in, it was very multicultural but due to gentrification its changed immensely. A lot of well know shops in the community have become chain stores or coffee shops now. I'm actually planning on moving out of London because there's no way I'll be able to afford rent once I graduate uni.
Same as NYC...rent is ridiculous. You either stay home with family or need a roommate smh
Same as Madrid 😥
Same as Delhi/Gurgaon... 😫
(Waiting for the Mumbai/Bengaluru lot to show up and do their own crying...)
Same as Porto. What a shame!
Haha the irony of an American complaining about the noise of tourists and their suitcase noise!
The Americans in the video clearly live there - so the comparison with tourists makes no sense.
@@sharr630 but they're not british..
@@person.7430 The video isn't about British people - it's about apartments in London lol
Right?! What a bloody sod she is!! STAY IN THE UK!
How is it ironic? Seems very xenophobic.
Man, that place with 19 people could use a few more bathrooms.
That place sounds like it would be heaven for creative young people. As I'm a million years old I doubt I could survive there more than 5min...
Right! I had to go back and check she actually said 3.
And more cleaning
Did she say there are THREE HUNDRED rooms there and THREE bathrooms? 😳
MySisterIsAFoodie I think the area was converted into 300 bedrooms and then was split into “houses”
I’d love to see an island maybe Jamaica or Trinidad
yasss, Trinidad !!
🇹🇹 My country 😊
The British Virgin Islands, St. Lucia, St. Kitts and Nevis, Anguilla, Antigua, St. Barts. Other islands. Caribbean have so many cool places.
Oooo tht would be nice
Barbados!
This video was very hard to follow. Half the time I had no idea who was talking and couldn't remember how much rent each person paid for their space.
Alexandra4real yeah I wish they’d had a line across the bottom all the time with name-location-rent
Not to mention, the music became obnoxiously loud to the point where you couldn't hear the narration.
Poor editing
the music was so disturbing on top of that
It's sad we live in a world where apartments space are getting smaller and smaller every year and you have to pay thousands of dollar to live in a box.
Well, with overpopulation it's expected.
you do NOT have to. You can buy a home. The UK is obviously a joke country with no closets, and no closet gays!
I don’t like to hear their luggage
Lol
Rich people problems
You should include the average salary for each city as well to give people a better understanding of rent. Most Americans aren't used to how low the salaries are in Europe.
London is crazy expensive. Most of the time everyone pays half or more than half of their salary just for flat. People with lover incomes can't afford to rent a flat and can only afford to rent a room and that's still around 700/800 pm. Those ones who earn a bit more of course want their own space, and cheap basic 1 bedroom flat is around 1500/2000£. From my experience I can say that salary for young professionals varies from 1500- 4000£ per month (3/4k is really good salary)
Liga Ozolina yeah I live in London and the cost of living is ridiculously high. I find that a lot of Americans compare London to NYC but neglect the fact that the average salary in NYC is 76k whereas the average salary in London is about 36k.
Liga Ozolina £1500-2000 pm for a one bed? My husband and I pay £1000 pm in Lewisham. We drive and can be at Westfield Stratford in 20-30 mins. Greenwich is even closer. Price really depends on area which I don’t think this video really illustrates.
Agreed. The cost of living here vs the salary you can expect in some professions astounds me.
My partner and I live in Shepherds Bush and pay about £1.5k/month. We are fortunate to be really close to a Westfield and close to a number of tube stops which makes the journey to Central London 20-30 mins max. I could never imagine owning a car here, or being able to afford a house here. Living here also really makes me appreciate how good living in Australia is relative to London.
Sounds more like New York to me same exact reality
Most of these flats are cherry picked on the very "nice side". Most flats in London are super expensive and not nearly as nice as these and when you find one flat that's half decent you have be ready to throw cash faster than a cowboy draws his pistol.
Yeah not one of them mentioned mice which makes me suspicious
crikxouba, You thought these apts were nice, it gets worse than this? The only one I feel was decent was the 3800 pounds spot.
@@cjackson3019 Just imagine the "not nice" ones then...
If you actually need to move and don’t need to find a replacement for your place, do it now. Plenty of Airbnb’s driving local rent prices down 10-30% depending on the area, so you can lock some pretty good contracts.
Literally know so many people pay £1500+ for no heating 1 bed flats with at least 1 flight of stairs to get to it.
Watching this as a born and bred Londoner is interesting to say the least
Agreed!
100%
For real!
For real
British understatement ;-)
I love that in the co-living space they share one cat, lol
I would like to see how apartments look like in Stockholm and Helsinki
The woman who's renting the 3800 pound apartment trying to justify the amount she pays monthly: The nice thing too is that it has sliding doors in case you want some privacy in the kitchen.
Lol
Right! The walls don't even go all the way up to the roof.
The flat is awful
19 people 👀!! That’s too many personalities to deal with 😟
And too much coronavirus risk. 🦠😷
£3800 a month?? Jesus, you may as well be paying off a mortgage
@@amzzxx1416 £800 a month for a 5 bed in London??? I don't believe it lol
Indeed - if you lived in one of the other places and put the remaining £2 a month aside you'd save £24k over just a year, so could save a deposit pretty quick. Or just spend the £2 on anything else if you thought you would move soon etc. Seems mad to me, but each to their own I guess
@@amzzxx1416 "modern but victorian" well that is some scary words
amzz xx £800 for a 5 bedroom apartment... do you live next to the Heathrow Airport or what lol.
@@amzzxx1416 doesn't that mean the local council pays for some of the rent then?
I could just never live in London. I pay £325 a month for a two bedroom, two bathroom flat about 50 minutes train ride from London.
I love dipping into London for the odd weekend to get the best out of the city: restaurants, shows, museums then go back. I know people living in London who pay so much to live there they have no money to even go out. So what’s the point.
Honestly, i will always choose to pay more to live in London than to pay £325 to live outside 🤣
I live just outside London and I love it. Yes it’s zone 6 but I get a lot for my money and peace
@@barbaraeriavbe-ahonsi3291 Amen to that))
I live in Clapham, I'm a nurse and when I'm not working (before lockdown),I go out all the time?
Steph Powell if I had to live anywhere in London it will be Clapham. Love the place and everything it offers
The warehouse space with all the creatives looks like something out of a late 90s movie
Channel 4 actually had a series called Crashing with Phoebe Waller-Bridge that's about a similar living situation
I loved it it looked so so fun
i fucking love it.
I used to live pretty close to the warehouse shown and it’s pretty common in that area. But it’s bound to gentrify quickly
I would love to live in something like that
"on the contrary , i don't love walking to the tube and seeing a bunch of tourists, hearing their suitcases rattle over the cobble stone." says the American. Lol, they do carry around their entitlement wherever they go. So should the tourist place their suitcase on their back or pay for an Uber that would be minimum £60 for a 15min drive.
@abi wanyoike : totally agree with you, i,m here fuming on exactly this , an entitled american complaining about tourists in London . Well, i visit London when i can, few days almost every year, i adore this city, it’s a fountain of joy ❤️❤️❤️ , so i,m going to rattle my suitcase as soon as possible, so watch out Karen 😡
It’s less to do with her being American (which is an assumption by the way) and more to do with her being privileged.
@@amstreater yes, i agree , it doesn’t really matter she’s american ( or not), it’s about her being entitled and thinking she somehow owns the streets/ views/ 😂😂 rattling rights 😂 . I profoundly dislike people like her.
@@mihaelahuban5287 I'm an American and I hate cluelessly privileged Karens like that. I wish could afford to be a tourist at the moment! I wouldn't complain x
I do not get why you got two Americans to do it, I feel like proper Londoners would be more entertaining -
Anyone who lives in the city owns the city. Being foreign doesn't mean you're not a 'proper' Londoner.
London is known as super diverse though so it's accurate to show people who are originally from another country 🙂 To be fair, we don't have tons of Americans... But like they said in the video some parts are more known for Italians, or Turkish people etc. 'Proper Londoner' wouldn't mean someone with a British accent 😃
I get getting people from across the world as London is very diverse but I wish it wasn’t just 2 Americans and rather one American and someone from elsewhere in the world
@@antarchi80 Yeah I agree with you. It would be better represent London to have more people that maybe have moved from different places in the world :)
If you wanted proper Londoners they should have looked for the needle in the haystack and that is the cockneys. Other “proper Londoners” too of course, but most of the inner-city and East Londoners have been replaced.
When they say Clapham has bars and restaurants and yet the clip they show is of Covent Garden😂
Really annoys me when people say they don’t like to see tourists.
Yeah, means you live somewhere nice that people want to see etc. I'm prepared to give her the benefit of the doubt though as I think she could well have been trying to think of a downside and was just like err loud suitcases
I can understand if it was someone born and raised in London and an actual londoner but she was American so it was a bit hypocritical. I know she lives there and isnt a tourist but shes a foreigner and that's pretty much the same as a tourist in my opinion.
@@jessw391 exacctly!! shes a whole tourist her self so I don't get it
Especially when they're tourists themselves 😏
Especially when she’s not even from here... and I can say that as I’m born and raised in London. 😂
Take us to Dublin, Ireland.
Apartments in Seoul would be interesting.
Definitely considering even big celebrities tend to live in a fairly normal apartments
I have lived in several apartments in seoul, their size varies and prices are very cheap!
But to actually buy an apartment in seoul is impossible unless you have lots of money saved up!
@@innet09 there's this youtuber called 'Poo In Korea' whose an Indian born n' bred in Italy. She is a working college student who bought an apartment in Seoul.. She mentioned apartments in Seoul are expensive to rent out so she bought one
Oddly enough my flat in Camden Town is about the same price as Adas, bigger and has more storage space and a balcony... All while being on the brink of zone one. Just makes me realize what a lucky pick it was. That being said: living in London is outrageously expensive and has become even more so over the last 10 years. At some point all the natives will flee.
Bubbly - that's what all of the developers want. So they can rob the new "gentrifiers" by charging outrageous rents
Lots of us already have.
Except for the ones in the welfare towers.
sogol's house is fireeee 😩 especially the bedroom omg
Wooow I would so do this in Paris!!
I can not imagine renting, an apartment, for £3,800. But different folks different strokes I guess
I'll bet my last tenner, if her husband is American too, they are over here on contract and the company is picking up that rent bill. Paying nigh on 4k a month rent, you'd have to be earning 200k a year AT LEAST to justify the spend. That puts them in the top 1% of income earners in the country. Hardly an accurate representation of what the average Londoner lives like.
It does seem high but I was still glad to see the cost and appearance of a higher end apartment in comparison to all other rates.
@@woofolliesmydog8628 Umm, how'd you come to that conclusion? I was looking at Data Scientist jobs in London a couple of years ago and at 65-70K a year I would have been able to afford half her and her husbands rent all by myself. If they both work in highly skilled jobs, which is likely, the could easily afford $3,800 and would be nowhere near the 1 percent.
I hate the idea of sharing my space with a ton of other people, yet somehow Amy's flat with the 16 housemates was my favorite. So fun, so colorful!
I was house/flat sharing in London for 13years, moved more than 15 times. This video doesn't have much to do with the standard reality (apart from the converted wearhouse which really works only for creatives and incredibly easy going and chilled people ;)
Love the way Amy gets to live. I would love to live like that.
the splicing together makes this really confusing
This just makes me appreciate the spacious apartment I live in located in midtown Manhattan, New York. I love London charm but just visiting there I quickly realized how even more expensive it is to live there than my side of the pond.
new York city is more expensive, silly gal btw be my girl, your beautiful
@@c3realK1ll4h But incomes are also high compared to london.
You should do Sydney, Australia! Or NYC
The American *princess* turned me off completely! I stopped watching the video because of her . My suggestion is that after the introduction you get a professional to do the narratives.
You are easily bothered...
You have serious issues if you're that triggered by a stranger from a RUclips video.
I am in love with Sogol's house. It's so Victorian and yet so modern.
Not very victorian, she's just kept the old architrave. Its been completely washed out in a varying shades of magnolia.
Yeah it was my favourite too, but $3800/mo is a $1M mortgage damn
The prices make me want to faint ... I live in Essex but I'm only a 45 minute train ride from central London, and average rent here for a 2 bed 1 bath is £900-£1000. Plus I get to leave the crowded hell-hole that is London at the end of the day.
Em - lucky you
Essex where? I a 1 bed for a single person would be even cheaper. But what about train fares?
@@TheGazelle85 near chafford hundred station, can get cheaper if you go further from the station but then you need to take the bus or get a car. Train is about £200 per month which I'm pretty sure is cheaper than from other big commuter cities such as brentwood
Blimey how things have changed. When lived in London as a 18/19 year old it was all bedsits with a Baby Belling in a cupboard for the kitchen and shared houses . The most I paid was about £45 a week but that was in the posh area - Bayswater.
WHATTTTTT 😮😱 when was this?!!!
1988/89
I knew that was the 80s. Lol!
i'd LOVE to see Montréal if you havent already...love this series!
I would love to see Amsterdam!
It’s fun to see that they picked houses in areas that totally fit their personality.
As much as I love the hustle and bustle and living in London is simply fab, but the tremendous downside of it all is the overpriced rent. I used to pay around 900 gbp ON A ROOM in an apartment that I shared with my partner. In this tiny apartment, there were two more rooms (an en-suite and a regular room), a bathroom (that me, my partner and a flatmate had to share) and a tiny kitchen with NO ROOM to have a table and sit down therefore we had to eat in our rooms. The prices are ridiculous for what you get, that is the main reason we moved and we are very happy with the decision we made!
USA in NYC expensive AF in the college areas Philadelphia East coast -1500 in good areas for a 1 bedroom jumped by half since 1994.
Half of me would love to live in the really nice £3800 one and the other half of me would LOVE to live in the 19 flatmates one...
That’s a really good vlog! Inspiring I live in London with my Hubby! We’re short of space I like the way these flats are laid out! That’s funny keeping clothes in hallway bcos bedroom is too small, totally get that!
Me who lives up North, in a 3 bedroom, garden, parking & pays just under £400🙈
@Taylor 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
As a born and bred Londoner, I moved to the Midlands and yeah the idea of rent/mortgage more than £500 a month makes me itch now.
@Taylor living in the midlands isn't a problem, it's a lifestyle.
That's what I'm thinking we pay 380 for a 2bed I could live like a queen in my area paying that rent x
@Taylor why would you wanna commute to London when u live up north
this is such a bad representation of london lol, nothing like the experience for the vast majority of londoners
Right?! They all have outside space ffs!
I thought you could get cheaper places
As someone who wants to visit London, I now know where to stay to bug my fellow american.
Omg..in east london 8 years ago we got a very spacious modern 2 bedroom for 1400 pounds. Now prices are even higher..crazy
I went to london recently and I love seeing how much apartments are in the different areas!
I'm sorry but that factory-living arrangement is a hot mess express!
Also, anyone who covers their pillows with their bed cover is a serial killers haha.
I've never lived in factory-living arrangement, nor will I ever contemplate doing it. Having said that, I DO cover my pillows with the bed cover but me no serial kille!!!
The woman is smart. Why throw away 5-10x the amount on rent when you could just have fun, save and buy your own place young
it really is i just think they should get it renovated and up to date and get better furniture and decor cause oh my god all those colors clashing and the bathroom i can't!!! it looked very dirty!!!
Hot mess express! Totally stealing this. 🤣🤣🤣. She's young though ... so guess it works for her.
😂
Living in London, or any major capital city, is definitely a lifestyle choice. I don’t think I would want it, for any more than a couple of years or for a degree. I’m from Sheffield and appreciate the city but also close access to national parks and gorgeous countryside, it’s the best of both worlds for me! Not to mention house prices are amazing here, I do feel bad for people who were born and bred in London and have basically no chance of buying because of houses owned as investments/tourists/pull factors for the rest of the country
Why on earth would you pay a grand each for a flat like that in Clapham...
skitsot Because Clapham is great! Best area in London for anyone under 30.
Cos it's Clapham innit. XD Clapham has been up-and-coming for a while now, so property prices have gone through the roof.
@Courtney COOKE That's Fulham. Clapham is definitely not SLOANEY, It's known for young professionals, loads of pubs and bars and having the green space of the Common.
Love this video. I have been to London in the 1990's. I wish that I had spent more time there, but I was with my Girl Scout troop and we were due to arrive at a Girl Guide camp in Warwickshire, we were there for 3 days. There so many different styles of apartments and I like that this video looks at different neighborhoods in London.
Amy's bedroom is GOALS!! 😍😍😱😱
Those apartments must have very high rents, I know several people who have lived in London and have never been able to find a decent apartment at a decent price. They told some funny stories about the situation of the apartments in that city, some really incredible, ah, ah!
For example, my friend's son wanted to learn English well (we are Italian) because he wanted to work as a mechanic in Formula 1 races, so he had enrolled in a school in London. He had to study during the day, work in a restaurant in the evening and would share an apartment with other people for about a year. When he moved to London his parents went with him to check that everything was in order. School and workplace were perfect, but the apartment ... It was something horrible! The kitchen was dirty, there were cockroaches everywhere and he should have slept in a bare room that had to be locked with a padlock! My friend's son claimed that everything was ok for him, but his parents were shocked and forced him to return to Italy. They aren't rich, he is a worker in a factory and she cleans a school, and they live in a small apartment, but in Italy an apartment like that would have been considered uninhabitable due to the total lack of hygiene and safety. The plan was to send him back to London a few months later, when they would find a better home for him, but three days after returning home he started working with a company that sells industrial mechanisms and is now the industrial representative for numerous companies in my region.The work is excellent and in the end he decided to study English in a school in my town run by a native speaker.. And still today his family enjoys telling the story of the horrible English apartment, ah, ah!
What you are describing is closer to the reality for most people in London than what's shown in the video.
I love the story. And I am glad his parents could make that decision for him at that particular time. Had he remained in London, he might not have his dream job. The competition in London when it comes to job hunting is fierce and overwhelming.
that american girl is rich af
SnEAkErHEaD Not really, Earl's Court was never a prestigious area, if she was in prime central London- Knightsbridge, Mayfair, Belgravia maybe she would be paying more than that for a week, let alone a month.
Spencer Wilton £3,800 for 2 people is no joke. Zone 2 is for rich people now
Spencer Wilton I would like to have seen an apartment in one of those areas too, just for an example.
Spencer Wilton those times have gone, even people in Brixton are priced out. Earls Court is now seen a prime and prestigious real estate in London
@@hannahreynolds7611 she did lived with 2 or 3 flatmates, though
As an American living in the Bay Area, I can't get over how small these apartments are.
The warehouse set up with that many people and everything on top of each other, everything everywhere, everything communal etc is my actual idea of hell. It would mess me up. Hat off to anyone that can find peace in such a place. Not for me, but each to their own, and my respect to the creatives that can do it.
This seems like a tour of my own living journey - I started in student housing that looked like home one, then did communal living like the last girl, now I live with my partner in a home like the guy in the middle - I would love to end up in a home like the American woman, hopefully I'd be more gracious about it.
Lagos, Nigeria! 😊
I'd love to see this again for just about any country. An island country, mountainous country, dessert country. I really enjoyed it. :) thanks
I wish there more of these videos to feed my travel craving!! Canada, Netherlands, Scotland, Italy, Korea!! Literally anywhere!
Visit apartments in Montreal!
Oui oui❗️
I lived in Earls Court once. Lovely neighborhood
the warehouse one looks crazy! couldn't be dealing with that. sharing with all those people 😂 looks fun but only for a few months.. then it would drive me mad.
next ideas:
- Napoli/Italy
- Berlin/Germany
- Göteborg/Sweden
- Edinburgh/Scotland
- KIjev/Ukraine
- Sao Paulo/Brazil
and of course Budapest/Hungary :) ;)
The American woman in the video needs to know she too is a tourist here in London , just on a different visa 😉
if her husband and child are British (which I assume they are if they're four months old) then she's a permanent resident probably on the route to citizenship/naturalisation, so not a tourist lol
@@PlaceboEllie but there was a time she was
@@PlaceboEllie As an American, she just sounded super entitled. If I want to visit London as a tourist, why would a fellow American be judging me for that? She should get off her high horse.
@Isa Tailor right so not a tourist
@@JC-rl6ln god who cares
So I see why people like to live on the outside of London, these apartments look crowded and overly priced.
Way overpriced.
The maker space is definitely up my alley. I wish I would have done something like that when I graduated college.
These are beautiful apartments... I really like the big windows. 🙂
What an amazing space shared by 19 people how much fun and creative energy, love it 😍
cool... I am always thinking my place isn't decorated enough... but when I see this I feel alright!
I stayed at Earls Court in 99. Loved it it was lovely.
I live about 4 miles outside of central Manchester in a block of 4 flats, I have 2 large bedrooms 1 large bathroom a kitchen with plenty of storage, a great size living room and a balcony on the back through the kitchen that is 18ft long which looks over meadows and trees, birds, squirrels, cats, foxes, £480 a month !! Been here 20yrs and just love it...
How about Dubai or egypt
This! Please!!
I’m Egyptian, I can try to help you..
Seattle, Boston, Berlin!
new york, shanghai, and paris would be awesome!
OMG the lack of sleep in the communal place must be incredible......seriously my idea of hell!!
In general, most of the flats in UK are tiny and very expensive to buy.
Unless you are very rich and can afford a penthouse apartment or a decent size apartment in a good location.
Toronto!!!
Megan Crofts: Toronto is very clean and beautiful. The best place to live on this planet. 😊
D. Benders expensive as heck though
Wow Sogol’s place is the dreaaaaam 😍😍 but lol the tourist comment though, cause I’ve actually stayed in Earls Court. Defs does feel a lil posh
I used to live in Earls Court. I rented a room while I was in the process of finding a permanent place. It was pretty big. 3 beds and a kitchenette. Shared garden. There were 3 shared bathrooms. Had to get used to that. Worked out better than I thought. It was always clean. Cleaned by management 3 times a week, every other day. I had a little cleaning kit I would always walk in there with, just in case.There used to be a big auditorium there. It was nice because there were lots of concerts and awards shows. Imagine being able to walk to all of the great concerts. That was years ago. It has since closed.
Became very ill, had to go back to the states before settling in a permanent place.
Good memories, I wish I could have stayed.
There was zero representation of London or real London culture I.e what a normal Londoner of any background would be living in.
Yeah I really wanted a peek inside London but I feel like I’m watching something in N.Y
I look forward for part 2. 😃
amy’s place looks awesome specially the kitchen
6 year Londoner here - the Earl's Court lady pays an average price for the neigborhood and there is always noise around here as it's pretty easy to access and loads of tourists walk around (which is funny because I've walked past her house several times)
To the girl living in Harringay - You guys have got great parties. Been to one for Halloween last year but didn't know it was such a community. Loved it though and I live just around the corner x
All in all I feel like these videos are great, but you guys should give them more time to explain their apartments and try to put a face with it - that way it's easier to put them together in the end. Instead of having to think about which bathroom belongs to which bedroom :)
What I learned from this is I won't be living in London... I need a bit more space
Do Dublin, Ireland next! I live there!
Ireland is a shithole
Thanks for the information, great video 👍✨
The rubber duck collection is all I remember after this lol
Watching this from South Africa and I can't help but laugh at how ridiculously expensive accommodation is in other countries. And it's soooooo tiny. WHAAAAAATTTT?! 🤣🤣🤣 some of these rentals are what you pay for a mortgage for a 4 bed home in an affluent suburb.
Well that’s the difference between South Africa and London. Desirable locations cost more. People always complain about how it’s like $3,000/month for a closet sized apartment in NYC and how you could get a mansion in Kentucky for that price. The point being that no one wants to live in Kentucky.
Yeah.....but you're in SA, not London, sooo.....
It's about cities...
Zeta Jones in counties... Your point is?
Steph Powell fact still remains.
The one with 19 people would be a nightmare for me. I'm such an introvert...I'd go crazy with practically no silent space for myself
19 ppl- 3 bathrooms = DISGUSTING
Same. Even the thought gives me anxiety.
Hi sis watching here from uk in the small city of lincoln! Thanks for sharing this video! Stay connected!
So much IKEA furniture! Love it!
