Hi ladies.

Since starting the blog, I’ve received so many emails from lovely readers asking me different questions about moving to or living in London. A good friend of mine is actually moving to London soon too so she has been asking me for advice. She has found an amazing apartment on the Space Station website and is literally counting down the days until her big move. Consequently, if you are thinking of moving to London, you might want to Try Space Station For Free and check out some of their fantastic real estate opportunities. Anyway, I thought it would be wonderful to start a new section of the blog, where you can ask questions, and receive answers! That way, other girls may find your questions helpful OR also be able to weigh in on their thoughts……. lets see how it goes.

Here is a recent one……..

From RH:

Hi there!
I am currently a 25 year old American girl working in Chicago relocating to London in January. I had a few questions and would love your input as I am trying to get feedback from a large amount of people and girls who have made the move. If you have any time to answer, it would be great and much appreciated!

– – I currently make 60k in USD in Chicago and was offered 47k in London. Would you consider this a decent salary? Is it enough to have a good time and explore within London? Currently, I think I make a pretty decent amount for my age and lifestyle in Chicago and while I know things are expensive, I would hope not to take too much of a hit on my lifestyle.

– – I noticed that your blog was about living in Chelsea. Do you have any other tips on great neighborhoods that are affordable? I hear that Chelsea is quite expensive. What is your past experience in rent prices? Thanks in advance for your help!

Cheers! xx
