Please be careful when posting about where you’re living. I actually know where you are coz you’re like a road down from my mum. Hopefully other people can’t clock on the location. Just a friendly reminder, love the vlog!
I followed bestdressed and she always just posted inside the house but had a stalker and she and multiple others said they find you anyway. Micarah Tewers said they often only need your name. Really creepy
@@moongirl8807 it’s scary. But the balcony frame I can easily see where she is based on some of the neighbouring residential buildings, they’re quite iconic in that area of London. Also because I used to live in one of them.
@Jen-rf5xb true at least filming out of the window etc...don't wanna act like it's nothing it's just that with her content being so focused around lifestyle and vlogs the question is how much the whole work of censoring everything will actually do. Especially since she won't stay in England that long (for now but like she's not going to spend years there)
towel heater is just a normal radiator, they just changed them to look like this to also warm and dry your towels, you really only need it when it's cold in the winter (and then it has the added benefit to heat your towels)
Please take pictures of the inventory and videos of the flat and share that asap with the landlord so you’re both on the same page regarding the state you received it in!
That’s actually really smart mostly when you do know the phone number and email of the landlord. Mostly to be sure that it is the correct item on the inventory list.
About the washer-dryer, maybe look into the customizible settings, choose one with less washing cycles (1/2 rinses) and a faster drum speed (1000), temp 30° for color, 60°/90° for whites. it should decrease the time. Maybe look for fun fabrics or bandanas / cloths to hang over the pictures, lay on the chairs or sofa. They can change a room without actually touching the permanent stuff, and easily removed. For the drawers you can look into installing railings (maybe the landlady will agree for the permanent improvement) Btw she was probably including 'unstealable' things in the list for you to asess the condition of each item (is the sink rusty/cracked? Is the vent not working? Etc) it's to protect your deposit, so you ahould take it seriously. Have a fun time!
girl i dont how but your little end montage is so so wholesome it makes me feel so happy and its just so absolutely gorgeous i have no words, literally makes me feel so seen and whole
the thing about those washer-dryer combos is that they take forever 🙃 my mum has one of those and the drying takes around 3 hours and the items still aren’t dry. Sometimes it’s easier to get a drying rack for your clothing (especially in the summer, since you have a balcony) instead of putting it in that dryer 😅
As far as things to do in London that are good value: - Defo see a musical or play! Todaytix usually has £15 tickets a few weeks in advance, and check when theatre week sales are on - st Dunstan in the east (an old church that was bombed in the blitz which is now a public garden) - the Barbican conservatory (now u have to book online which you didn’t used to 🙁, but it should still be free) - the Peter Harrison planetarium (planetarium shows are pretty cheap and Greenwich is lovely - also check out the painted hall near there which is considered London’s Sistine chapel equivalent!) - obvs the museums are great and free (my fav is natural history, but the V&A statue room is also amazing). The natural history museum does £30 silent disco nights every month that are a bit expensive but defo worth it - soooo much fun! - brick lane is considered the vintage Mecca and slightly less insane than Camden market but similar vibes: defo go on a Sunday so you can also visit the Columbia road flower market that happens every Sunday morning
Honestly, you're kind of lucky to have any form of tumble dryer in general; a lot of homes for sale won't have space for them in the kitchens (a lot of houses that don't have utility/ laundry rooms will have the washing machine and the tumble dryer in the kitchen, kind of like your ones in the vancouver apartment. Newer flats like the one you're in currently sometimes have them in a cupboard but not always.) Not everybody owns dryers in the UK as we don't have laws forbidding outdoor washing lines like some parts of the US or Canada and most 'new build' houses don't have space for them unless they come with a utility room. A lot of home owners who want dryers but lack space will put them in garages, sheds or in under stairs cupboards as its not a default in housing design to have space for them. I've seen a lot of 2 bed houses for sale that come with spaces for dishwashers in a kitchen but not for a tumble dryer, which seems completly dumb to me but that's housing design for you. The smaller sink is so you can rinse off items as you wash them, so you can fill the larger sink with washing up liquid (Dish Soap. 'Fairy' is a good brand if you're looking for any) and rinse the items off before placing on the drying rack. Not all of us have them but I'm suprised that the US/ Canada don't really have them. UK regulations say that appliences have to be a lower voltage than what's common in the US or Canada which is probably why your hairdryer doesn't work. Also UK building regs forbid electrical sockets or switches in bathrooms apart from special ones for electric toothbrushes or electric razors (hence why bathrooms have the light switch on the outside or as a pull cord) so a lot of us use 'dressing tables' (vanities) or set up hair tools on a chest of drawers/ dresser in the bedroom. If its an annoyance you could get a little folding table, chair and a little mirror to create one or set a mirror up on a chest of drawers in your room if you have one.
What isn’t it the opposite, that the UK has much higher voltage than US/Canada? I once brought my hairdryer to Canada on holiday and it was sooo slow, not the same at all! And I assume the reason we don’t have bathroom sockets is because of our higher voltage but could be wrong since I don’t know!
@@JENerationDIY It is the most important desicion you will ever make in your life. Choose wisely traveller. (Also I’m a hugeee fan. I hope u hv a meet and greet bc I love ur music and ur videos and ur aesthetic and pretty much everything)
It will get better. I have been here 6 years, also coming from a very similar climate to Canadian one and London has been an improvement in terms of weather for me. It is a beautiful experience here, enjoy!
Ok, so I'm from England and the double sink thing is so u wash the dishes in the large part and then rinse them in the small section, but the other things like the bulb r not British things, they're weird. Some rlly fun places to go in London and England in general are: Camden market town (u can get lots of nice market clothes and jewellery and there's a streetfood place there), there's free museums (if u find that kinda stuff interesting), China town is good but more expensive so it's easy to splurge there, in the uk we don't really have thrift shops but look thru Charity shops (like Samaritans or Oxfam) coz they raise money for people in need,I do recommend the famous places like Trafalgar Square and Buckingham palace coz the parks r nice but just don't go during rush hours, also rlly recommend visiting places out of London like Shere (Surrey) is such a pretty village and Bath and Oxford are so nice.
I still can’t believe you are in London! Well I have some suggestions if you like art galleries you should definitely check out the V&A and the national gallery because they are amazing and match your vibe so well. I hope you have lots of fun and I can’t wait to see what you do for fun in London and if I can get inspiration from it!
so just a random thing but if you want to make some fiends theres this thing my friends go to when in london called london reels. its a traditional scottish dancing thing and theres a tonne of peopl learning there and they run events. i dont know if youd be interested but as a scot its a fun bit of us in london :)
Omg love the flat. So happy you chose this one in the end. currently living there too! its a lovely area. Something you may want to do that is close by (if you're into marketplaces and foods from all around the world) is going to Spitalfield Market and Brick Lane
honestly you've gotta take a train out to wales, the one from paddington to Swansea is 2-3 hours!! i moved here from ontario in the fall for uni and i love it, it's absolutely stunning - the gower peninsula is one of the most beautiful places i've ever been 🥰🥰
I’ve lived in England all my long life, and that is actually the first time I’ve ever seen pie and mash. Heard of it but never seen it. Do you eat it or repair potholes with it?
Since you're in London you should check out places like Kensington, Winsor- that's where Winsor Castle is, and Bath- this place has lots of old early 18th-century (Georgian) architecture, cafes and the show Brighton was mostly filmed there.
I started laughing so much when you both spoke about the green sauce 😂 I’m British and the pie and mash dish has been popularised as "a Cockney classic". The pie is served with a parsley sauce known as liquor - also not my favourite sauce, I prefer gravy. I do hope you’ll both give poor pie and mash another chance to redeem itself 😂
You need to get a candle and wax the underneath of your drawer edges - or some silicone polish might do the job. They'll run easier then. Grandma trick!
Okay you NEED to have pie and mash again but just standard from a pub, im British and I literally have no clue what that green sauce you had with it was??? 🥴 just have it with gravy 😂
FR.. I was so confused. I opened the comment section expecting to see something about it, but I saw nothing 😭. I thought he had been introduced and I had just missed it.
Omg Jen i used to watch your vids back when you were still at NYU years ago and randomly remembered your channel just now!! So i defo missed a few chapters but super cool that you're living in london! I have two food recs, both have branches in canary wharf and the city so not too far from you. 1- Dishoom (its an Indian restaurant) and 2- Farmer J (defo try their fieldtrays). literally my fav places to eat you HAVE to try them!!
just discovered you from your kitchen makeover & u seem super nice & fun!! for the "mini bathtub" in the sink as you called it (LOL) at least for us, we use it as a strainer, so the left-over food doesnt clog the pipes / don't make the sink smell bad
We do have separate washer dryers and always have we also have washer dryer combos which is what you ended up with , because it’s cold from October til April so we need to dry our clothes
The end of the vid is soo inspirational! Tips time you have to go to Columbia rd it is a market on every Sunday and it’s gorgeous but you do have to get up early in the AM. You should also search up kempton race course market. Basically it is this massive race course that has an incredible thrifting antique event it has so many incredible sellers with great purchases that could be made. You should definitely go to some fun indoor go carting places that’s always a fun activity. You have to do pub crawls!!! Pubs are one of the biggest things of London you go from pub to pub around an area and you drink and meet people the atmosphere is always great and you can have a blast. It will also help you decide what is going to be your go to pub as if you really want to live the London life you will wanna start going to pubs. Also there are pub quizzes so if you have friends it always fun to go to pubs that do quiz nights. Nights like these are good to get to know people you have met more.if you have any questions please do reply and I’m happy to help I’m glad this is a thrilling adventure for you and I think what you said in your video is exactly right. Just because it may not all be pleasant doesn’t mean it’s not right I’m honestly wishing you the best time here embrace it and have a great time stay safe! Xx❤
You need to walk up to Victoria Park Hackney Wick area for lots of nice restaurants and cafes if you’re living in Bow. There’s a lot less in Canary Wharf/Poplar area.
Pie and mash is very specifically a cockney dish (from the east end of London). My nan was from that area. I am not a fan. You don’t see it anywhere else.
hey food may not always look bomb but it likely to taste good, but pie and mash id recommend finding a place thats talked about alot because it varies in quality depending where you go, dont give up on it yet!
Ok so you only have a combo washer dryer because you’re in a flat. Happy hour is when drinks are discounted at bars. & pie and mash is meh don’t worry. Bland and stodgy. Don’t let that put you off pies in general. Pretty much all other pies in the uk are banging.
Move it baby, move it, shake it, transport it. Actually, the UK grid runs on a peak voltage of 110 volts, cut off voltage of 55 volts and impedance margin of 25 volts which is vastly different from Canada.
you've almost definitely figured this out already but there are no plugs in bathrooms (or 2m away from them iirc) in the uk for safety purposes so storing hair tools in the bathroom is pointless anyway
That mini sink next to the sink is not a “British” thing, I mainly see it in more modern apartments. I’ve never ever had one, they do sell them in Ikea though so maybe also European
Love the place! Question tho, how were you able to rent a place in London in terms of visa and financial requirements? Do they not require income to be in pounds?
Just to let you know that pie and mash is a very WHITE British thing lol And the very lovely thing about London is how diverse it is, meaning the different cuisines on offer. You can get an amazing Turkish and then down road, get good an indian meal. 💗
stumbled upon your channel and i'm in love with your energy! 🤗 also a fellow vancouver girlie that moved to london, would love to meet up (and join in on the dinner parties 😉)
What do you mean in London they don't have actual dryers... what century do you think we live in. It just depends on what you or your landlord buys. Go to Currys or something you'll 100% find a dryer you can buy. My flat came with a washer as well as a dryer.
in a genuine defense of pie & mash, or more of an explanation?: so many 'famous' british foods are struggle meals that were loved by working class families, that have since become gentrified. i can guarantee that though a lot of brits like it, they'd never claim it to be super flavourful or creative. it's more of a nostalgia thing tbh. and businesses or influencers ect love to cash in on nostlagia, hence why it gets social media hype. and general (white british) people glorify pie & mash because they see it as a dying part of the culture. i've never liked pie & mash myself. it's mostly a very much caucasian cusine, or an older gen cuisine even because i know my older caribbean family members still love it. but, i can appreciate it for the old school vibe it gives.
Please be careful when posting about where you’re living. I actually know where you are coz you’re like a road down from my mum. Hopefully other people can’t clock on the location. Just a friendly reminder, love the vlog!

Landlord usually instruct a check in and inventory at which point photos are taken and the condition of the property is documented!
the nit-picking of all things in the flat was kind of funny but the suggestion of changing out the chandelier took the cake
esp when they're only staying 5 months

We do have washing machine and tumble dryers that are separate. However, because of the space they opted for the combined washing machine and dryer x

stumbled upon your channel and i'm in love with your energy! 🤗 also a fellow vancouver girlie that moved to london, would love to meet up (and join in on the dinner parties 😉)
Already knew this was the one you chose because during the apartment hunting video you said "my bedroom" lol
I think that lamp says happy hour babe, but happy how is better lmao, also pls tell me where you found your lando shirt at!!!!
Hahahaha and the shirt is from Abercrombie!
It's happy hour!
Such a cool apartment
Off-topic but gurl your make-up looks so goood
What do you mean in London they don't have actual dryers... what century do you think we live in. It just depends on what you or your landlord buys. Go to Currys or something you'll 100% find a dryer you can buy. My flat came with a washer as well as a dryer.
I'm actually moving to Ireland (Cork or maby Dublin) for 5 month in October. Do you hav any tips?? I'm at level 0 here, i take anything ;p
You should DEFINITELY go to Mother Mash!
Not alessandro borghi casually hanging out on the tv💀🤩
How do you find such a nice place 😍. Hope you dont mind me asking how much pcm a place like this costs in London?
“How many people can fit comfortably down there?”
“FOUR”
😂😂😂
come visit edinburgh!
Try to airdry as much as possible because your energy bill will skyrocket with the dryer setting
Spray some polish on the runners of your drawers , should glide a bit better 😊
i'm gonna admit that i saw your lando tshirt and screamed
i heard you can use a wax to help the drawers slide better
I understand the detailed list but Cheese knifes how is that necessary in a rental.
never clicked so fast in my life
6:30 happy hour
Beautiful flat. But in one of the roughest areas possible in London.
Jeeees, this woman can talk
in a genuine defense of pie & mash, or more of an explanation?: so many 'famous' british foods are struggle meals that were loved by working class families, that have since become gentrified. i can guarantee that though a lot of brits like it, they'd never claim it to be super flavourful or creative.
it's more of a nostalgia thing tbh. and businesses or influencers ect love to cash in on nostlagia, hence why it gets social media hype. and general (white british) people glorify pie & mash because they see it as a dying part of the culture.
i've never liked pie & mash myself. it's mostly a very much caucasian cusine, or an older gen cuisine even because i know my older caribbean family members still love it. but, i can appreciate it for the old school vibe it gives.
how much was your rent? i’m currently apartment hunting :)
okey imma be fun killer here by whyyyyy the shoes inside, pleaaaaase :'D
It's HAPPY HOUR!!! Haha... Congrats in moving in - Geez... bet that place is costly!!! I know as I am a Londoner **wink wink**
