Hey Guys,
In today’s video, I thought I’d share my life experience around moving abroad. So far in my life, I’ve moved abroad 2 times. I have lived in Berlin, Germany, and in London, England. I’ve moved to 4 different cities and 2 countries in 9 years so I’ve picked up a few tips and tricks on how to move abroad. I hope to answer most of your questions about moving abroad and share my knowledge with you. If you have any other questions that I don’t get to in the video please feel free to leave a comment below and I will try to answer them to the best of my knowledge.
Since this is a long video I will leave some important time stamps for you to follow:

12:13 Visa requirements

Thank you for sharing! This is one of the more REAL conversations on moving abroad. It’s not too sugarcoated and packed with really good insight!Thank you! How much would you say someone should save up if they want to move to London? I am currently trying to create an emergency fund for this type of transition. Any kind of advice would be really helpful. Thank you!

@AllAboutAnika 3 года назад

Thanks for your kind words! So it really depends on what you’re coming to London for. If you’re coming to study you’ll have to save more but if you’re working you will have a salary. I’d say the most you have to save for is a deposit for the flat and first month rent. I’d say monthly rent if you share a flat is 600-800 pound a a month. And then deposit is usually a month rent on top of that. But remember that’s just rent. Not utilities, or council tax, or internet etc. I’d say a few thousand would be a good start for the first few months. Good luck

I love your video, you explained everything like it was so easy. I am planning to move to the UK or Germany in a couple of years when I finish my degree, but I wasn't sure, until now that I saw your video. I live in Mexico since I was born, but I am also German, and I was afraid of making a big decisition like moving there (since I don't know any German). Thank you so much

@OutxfOrder Год назад

Thank you for this video! This was extremely helpful and gave me a basic understanding of the steps to take for this. I've been planning on moving abroad for a long time and I hopefully want to next year but the problem is that I live with my parents who are completely unsupportive and against this and don't want to help me in any way so I have to find out how to do this on my own but thank you for making this whole process seem easier.

How much should someone save if theyre moving back to the UK and already a British citizen? And is it better to work for a company where you currently live and just transfer rather than looking for an entirely new job ?

Question, do you have to eventually apply for citizenship in the country you live in after staying there for a certain amount of time? I know you would have to if your final decision is to live there pernamintly and be involved in with it's system like voting there? If you apply for citzenship in that country, does that mean you are no longer considered a U.S citizen if that country does not do dual citizenship? Are the moving companies who would move your items including your veheicle overseas associate with airlines? Do you know any companies who move your items long distance within the country and overseas? If yes, can you please name them? Do you know any international job application websites?

@AllAboutAnika 2 года назад

Yes you can apply for citizenship after a certain number of years. For an American it’s after 6 years. Which is what I did. No I didn’t need to give up my US citizenship. I’m a dual citizen because my country allows that. I don’t know any company but I would say you should ask companies because many companies do offer relocation packages. I searched for all my jobs on LinkedIn. I hope this helps. Good luck!

@retroguardian4802 2 года назад

I'm trying to move my wife and children to the U.K. from America. I'm self employed and my wife doesn't work as I produce enough on my own. How would it work without me having a regular job or sponsorship? Thanks for any help!

@AllAboutAnika 2 года назад

I would check out the gov.uk website to understand what sort of visa you can come over on. You might be able to get a investor visa as you have your own business. If you do secure a visa you can always have your wife and family get a spousal visa. Good luck!

@TarynMychalMai 3 года назад

My company is remote and has HQ in London. Should I consult with them first?

@AllAboutAnika 3 года назад

Yes. If they can relocate you or give you a relocation budget it’s easier to go through your company. And if your company is already sponsoring your visa then it might be best to ask your company for help first.

@TarynMychalMai 3 года назад

@homesbyhailey1901 3 года назад

@@AllAboutAnika Hey! Do you feel as though it is very difficult to find a UK job to sponsor you for a work visa?

@AllAboutAnika 3 года назад

I won’t lie and say it’s easy but it’s not impossible. I found two different tech companies to sponsor me. So doable. But also now post brexit it actually might be easier for companies to sponsor Americans.

Did you know German language before moving to Germany?

@AllAboutAnika 2 года назад

I did not. I learned some while living there. I worked in English but learned German after work. I’d say most Germans know quite a bit of English as they learn it from a very young age.
