Personal comments
The house i was living in was located in London, Canada Water tube station. In my opinion it was very well located, around 25 minutes from university. It was in the dockland`s area, near from the city just in font of the Millenium Dome. It wasn`t new, but cosy, nice and clean. All means of transportion were very close. I was sharing it with other four mates. I met them there, and they were also university students, but from different courses (Masters). Although we were all from different nationalities , Germany, USA, Portugal, and UK, it didn`t take long to form a family. It was a very rewarding experience and a lot of knowledge (culture, academic, social, religion) was also shared. At the house everyone got a room for himself, there were two bathrooms and a kitchen for all of us. We also had a backyard where we use to do barbeques. Indeed it was a very pleasent experience.

Personal spending habits
I spent more than at home because London's cost of life is very high and it is hard not to pay more than in France. I pay for my accomodation each week what I paid each month in France.

at the beginning it was quite difficult to understand different language accents other collegs from my university and teachers were having but short time later this was not a problem anymore and I can say that, now, I can understand almost any language accent and I can communicate easily with everybody.
