Dear Joyce , Whatever information that Russell , aka Walnut has provided for accomodation in London is more than enough, I think . It is sheer common sense and the same as finding accomodation in any Indian metro .There isnt anything more to be added into further . Go into an estate agents ( and there are 100's all over any place ) and find a place to park yourself !!

Medicines that are rarely used are also of atmost importance. Since its a cold country, dieseases like migrane, sinus, small-pox, chicken pox, cold nose, asthma are the common ones....so if u have had any of these dieseases in the history better to take adequate medicines in stock along with u. 5] Take travellers cheques instead of hard cash. 6] If u r travelling by British Airways then they are very strict on the luggage limits so weigh your baggage b4 u take it to the airport. 7] If you plan to stay outskirts of London, then Hounslow or Wimbly would be the better place to stay as you find most of our Indian community and cheaper accomodations and good Indian restaurants. 8] If you plan to cook on your own then take some Home made spices and MASALAs with you ...but dont take commonly used spices such as chilli, and garlic and turmeric...u get alsmot every thing in UK. 9] Always carry c c opy of ur passport and some identification proof and names and contact details of the people in UK with u....even though UK is not a resists country...u may come across such situation at few places...so try not to roam around when u r alone.... 10] Follow traffic rules and cleanliness.... Thats all for the moment...let me know if u need any help...and I will try and ask some of my friends to help u out in UK. (Plz. bare in mind....they are all straight friends) so u need to keep ur mouth shut ..just kidding... Wish U all the best and happy travelling Walnut rusell rock wrote: Dear All, Indian leaving from india to London on 11th jan for further studies.Looking for gay sharing accomodation in London.
