Hey peeps, I am moving to London for work this Sept from Toronto, Canada and am looking for any guidance in London with regards to how to find a good place to live, to connect with some good ppl & to find the right places to party. I think I am steering towards the West side of London, not too far from Hammersmith, where my HQ is located. Looking at Portobello Rd, Notting Hill, Ladbroke Grove, or either West Kensington...Any suggestions?
I love open concept spaces, conversions, bright, open concept. Is anyone looking for a flat mate?
Will be working in the Fashion Industry...
Any suggestions are much much appreciated! =) Am a good friend of Swamper's and hoping to meet the right ppl in London.
Ciao,

In know the west end can be very expensive, I once went out there and paid £18 for two gon and tonics! Congrats on the new job though, should be exciting in London.
I'll be visiting there for a week on the 13th of september, if you do hear of any cool events please let me know, as the British event page is laking.
Good luck with the move! |

Yeah, I must say that the locations you stated certainly aren't the cheapest, but it all depends on what you can afford I guess!
If you're looking for a place, try gumtree, rightmove and propertyfinder. They should give you some ideas.
As for parties, what kind of nights do you enjoy going to? |

You mentioned a big night at Passion in November, the only one I know of is the Gareth Emery night. Are you referring to that or another one? |

I just moved here on Monday!
Im around the Swiss Cottage area. From what I have seen so far its pretty good! Close to the tube, shops, gyms, etc. Im sure that the areas you mentioned will be good too.
Check out spareroom.co.uk. I found my place through there.
Good luck!!
Any other questions, feel free to ask! |

| I think I'll stick that in my diary, as it'll give me a good excuse to meet up with Giuseppe. |
