Im Moving to London in 3 weeks

thats a very smart move to come with a statement that you're moving to
a whole new place, but with no place to stay nor job,
Especially when it comes to London, one of the most expenssive places on earth.

good luck to you!
 
how come you decided to move there? I believe there must be some concrete reason for that.
and good luck, of course!
 
im going through a work abroad program. usa - england. i chose london because i spent a semester there one year ago and ive been dying to go back. the program provides u with a work visa, but you need to find work, obviously, as well as a place to stay. im graduating college in may on the 21st and taking off the 23rd.

obviously i dont need anyone on here to hire me, that was a joke. i was/am just too excited about this so i had to share it with anyone and everyone!
 
thanks all. everyone thinks im nuts because i dont have a job, flat or friends over there. the thing is, im not worried in the least bit. things always work out in the end. plus i need a change, boring New Hampshire and UNH are old. I am hoping to meet tons of cool people and go to as many metal shows as possible!
 
you should work in a bar in London.
you get paid hourly, so you don't really need tips (although you get them sometimes and that never hurts)
and the best thing: they close at 23:00, so you'll have planty of time to sleep.

now, when I say "best thing" I mean for the bar tenders, but not for US customers :erk:
23:00! thats too godamn early!
 
thats my only gripe with pubs over there. 11 30 is much too early to close. as far as working there, the pay is hourly, but isnt it very small...like 5-6 pounds an hour? im gonna need to make more than that to sustaine myself

Ahh, you just need to get down to the pubs earlier, man... Or failing that find one with a late licence, if you're lucky you'll find a place that stays open til 2am or even later... Or you could just wait til the 24hr drinking act gets put into effect

hey do you or does anyone know any cool heavy metal pubs in london? i know of one that i found at the marlborough head (downstairs), are there any others?

Around Soho there is the The Crobar and the Intrepid Fox, both are very cool bars and the people in there are usually very friendly.
