i am in florida and always wanted to see europe and maybe live there for a few years. all i have is my laptop, bag of clothes, and car (which can be sold). i dont have any of my passport or such, does anybody know how i can come to the uk?
You will need to get a visa to be able to stay more then 3 months. Its the same when we want to visit the USA
You can probably fly in at Stanstead airport, if you get there it will be much nicer than Gatwick or Heathrow airports (unless you like relentless traffic and pollution!). Cambridge is very close to Stanstead airport, about ½ hour's drive, very nice place to visit. Cambridge is in Cambridgeshire, there are lots of Shires, they are called "Shire Countys" I live in Bedfordshire, very nice it is too. Just make sure you have the right papers and you're good to go. Places to stay are plentiful, if in doubt, book a "Bed & Breakfast" place (does what it says) or just an ordinary hotel until you find somewhere to "squat"!
Do you visit Cambridge a lot Karl? Let me know next time you're down, we could meet up for a pint or three....
Nice, I never knew that! Definitely get in touch then. Give me a heads up on here when you know you're coming down, and I'll PM you my number so we can meet somewhere....
hey there how about the others from asia like PH is there any posibilities to get in in UK live and work.. just asking thanks
Hello Forget all the other stuff, without a valid passport, you cannot go to any country in Europe. First you will need to get yourself a Valid passport which should be a ten year one. Regarding staying in Britain for a few years. I think you may need to find out how long you can reside in this country before you have to go back. It may be that you can only stay six months. I don't think you will be able to live permenantly unless you apply for citizenship. This is difficult for non Europeans.Without passport, you cannot get passed the gate. get passport. Check if you need a visa on entry. We have NASN on Cable or Sky for tenner a month if you want to catch up on the American sports. We also have three pin plugs and a breakfast called English breakfast. Go for the full tank. It consists of beans, mushrooms, hash browns, two eggs sunny side up, bacon slices, sausages, fried bread, toast and a cup of tea. And black pudding sometimes. Black pudding is literally cooked animals blood.
With lumps of white fat in it. But actually believe it or not, you can now get vegetarian black pudding.
