🌍 Living Abroad – What It’s Really Like Studying in the UK

Moving to a new country is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming — I’ve been there. After living in the UK for over 8 years, I’ve experienced it all: student life, part-time jobs, accommodation struggles, budgeting on a tight income, adapting to British culture, and eventually building a career here.

This session is for anyone who wants real, first-hand advice about what life is actually like in the UK as an international student. Whether you’re still planning your move or already accepted into a UK university, I’ll help you prepare for everything beyond the visa.

We can talk about:

1. What to pack and what to leave behind
2. Finding the right accommodation (and avoiding scams)
3. Day-to-day costs: food, travel, and living expenses
4. Part-time job tips and work rights as a student
5. Culture shocks to expect — and how to handle them
6. How to build a social life and settle in quickly
7. Navigating the NHS, banking, and mobile plans
8. Life after graduation: visas, jobs, and next steps

Ask me anything — no judgment, no jargon. I’ll share the kind of advice I wish I had when I first moved here. Let’s make sure you feel confident and prepared before you arrive.
