Americans working in The UK/GB/England/London?

Question

i am hoping to go to and possibly live in England when i am older, and i was wondering what i would need to do to do so.

i am going to college next year and hope to travel abroad (what would i need to do that too?) Can any of you rrecommend a school?

is London super expensive? that's where i think i would like to go the most. But i know that you all probably know better places, name some?

and last, for the moment, is there anyone that would be willing to let me e-mail them if i have questions?

help if you can please.

Answer 1

Brighton is also a nice city, less expessive, on the coast, very cosmopolitan, and about an hour on the train to London. There is also a college there.

London is very expensive. Most English people can't afford to live in central London.

To get a work visa, you need to prove that you offer skills for a position that the company can't find an English person to do. Either that or teach there. You can get a visa to teach in England pretty easily, and I think it lasts a couple of years. (check that though)

If you're rich you can get an "investor" visa lol and if you can make a living as an artist, and prove that you do, you can get an artist visa. :)
