There is also a city vs. city comparison option.

Sheffield to me would be cheap (compared to living in London).

I mean you can get a studio flat there for £200/month, or a 2 bed flat from £350-400/month, London you're looking at more £700/month for a studio flat if you're lucky. A 2 bed flat in most areas inside zone2 is hitting £1300-£1500/month just to give you some perspective.

 

I'm from not far from Sheffield and the cost of living is incredibly less than London. But you'll have to get used to drinking bitter and going to football matches! (massive generalization, but for the most part accurate)   

 

Sheffield I find a fun place for a night out, same as Leeds or Manchester. It has  a good uni, so if you can get in with the students you'll be looking at £1/pint with their yellow card! haha.

Are you suggesting that "28 Days Later" was a document not a horror movie and quarantine zones in UK are real?

I need some legend:

- what means "studio flat"

- what means "bed flat"

Hm, how bad it is that I don't drink and hate football? Will I have to pay bigger taxes?

Thanks.

LOL, you have zones 1-6 in London for the Tube. So when you buy tickets you get zones 1-2 or if you live out in the sticks 4-6 etc.

 

A studio flat is the smallest flat you can get. You'll have a separate bathroom (I would hope), but your bedroom will also be your living room and kitchen. $Num Flat will have separate bedrooms and other rooms.

 

Where are you coming from?

Poland. I'm not sure that I will come.

I'm aiming one city in Germany and waiting till end of february for decision but last week I got some proposition from UK. Recruiter sounded like they have problems with finding Houdini artists. Problem is that I barely touched Houdini for the last more than 2.5 years. I will talk a little more with them next week, to figure out what they need and how much time I would need to brush up my not used skills.
