Finally I found some time to follow up my last post.
All in all, we spent the last two days in the local IKEA searching for nice stuff to decorate our room with. We also had to buy a blanket, bed sheets, pillows and all the stuff which is needed to have a cosy night. If you keep the fact in mind, that we might stay for only 3 month its a bit silly to spend money on theses things (what to do with all this after the placement?), but its worth it. The room is much more friendly now and already feels like home. Furthermore we spend some money on lights and carpets and some decorational elements. 100 Pounds alltogether but its worth it.

The house mates are okay as well. Two or three Lithuanian guys, 3 British and one African.
Have I already mentioned the Indian-District? Yeah, its true. The room/house is located within an Indian-District, but it is nice. Fresh fruits and vegtables everywhere, butchers and all sorts of tiny shops. It is really great, you can find anything you want in the near neighbourhood.
Besides, what is really great about London: Local shops (Tesco) are open from 7am to 11pm every day, and all the shopping centres are open on Saturdays (long hours, until 11pm) and Sundays as well. I love it.
So what are you up to?
