Hey all, Evan here

I hope to meet all you soon as I just booked the trip for the 11th.

I've been living in London since May 2007 on a working holiday maker. Originally from Toronto Canada.

This trip is gonnnaaaaaa be great I'm counting down the days!

PS. If you need a place to stay in London I suggest the International Student house. Its the hostel I stayed at when I first arrived in London. Great place and friendly people. Rooms are around £12-£18 a night

Hey Laura,

Yes totally go for the Working Holiday! It has been so much fun. I recommend it to everyone. And it is so easy to get a job in London and flat. It all depends on what you are going to be doing. the only thing you might find is that 2 months will not be enough time!

oh just saw the other part of your question
I live in Angel Islington. And I've had two jobs since I've been here. For 9 months I worked at an executive search firm in asset management. Then for the last three months I have been working at a university as an administrator in the real estate department
both took about two weeks to find
however, bar/waiting type jobs will normally hire you on the spot if you speak english and have a CV with you!

Haha you're right laura, I have nothing to complain about! (a bit of summer sun will be a treat though!)
I'm booked into the (?Royal National) for 2 nights before the trip. Took the easy option. I think we can all relate to your excitement! I leave in a week Big Grin
