A change of place of residence often pushes people to change - we abandon old habits and acquire new ones. Let's try to imagine how London is changing people, taking into account the peculiarities of the metropolis.
The habit of crossing the road anywhere
To see someone crossing the road in the wrong place in London is a common thing. Even pedestrian crossings every 20 meters do not help the situation.
Spend money wisely
Regardless of the state, the British love to shop for good value for money.
Buy online
Despite the crowds of shoppers on the streets of London, locals prefer to shop for groceries, items and appliances from online stores.
Sort trash
Street bins in London are divided into two or more sections - for recyclable waste and everyone else. Londoners are adept at sorting garbage and throwing it into the appropriate bins.
To be polite
It is said that politeness is one of the main signs that a migrant is joining the London environment.
Forget about umbrellas
The British do not like to carry either umbrellas or sunglasses (probably because of the changeable weather). Instead of umbrellas, they prefer to wear layered clothing.
Go to pubs
Another sign of cultural adaptation is following unspoken rules: on Thursday, the British go to the pub with colleagues, and on Saturday - with friends.
Give up personal car
Personal transport in London is a big expense and inconvenience, which is why locals prefer to travel by public transport.
Don't worry about crazy prices
The capital of Britain tests foreigners for strength, including financial. The cost of rental housing is prohibitively high, and residents of London pay up to 50% of their earnings for it, the price can go up to 200 thousand rubles a month.
