Have a safe trip, take care of yourself
send me a lot of pictures
I will miss you so much
The fact that I woke up this morning and saw from the window that it was raining
and I am the happiest person in the world
it's something that only I could do
Basically, this is my first "Welcome"
The first "welcome"
to England
to my new city
This is the first morning in my new room and outside it's raining
and I am happy
Officially
Good morning from Newcastle
I cannot even believe it
Good morning
I am at the city centre
to look around all the shops
what's nearby my accommodation
I am acting like a tourist
Actually, I am still a tourist
I look around at the area like I've never seen
a shop in my life, like I've never seen a square before
like I've never bought a coffee before
For sure, it must be really obvious that I am
not from here and that I'm excited and I look at everything
like I've never seen a city before
So far I like it here so much
And what I really enjoy
Now the sun came up
In general, this is a typical english town, it's raining, at least it was raining this morning
now it stopped
but I still carry my umbrella with me
It is a really small town and I really like the fact that in just ten minutes
I am already in the city centre
I am where all the shops are and the bars, cafes
restaurants
and I am just ten minutes away from home
Good afternnon
It is officially the first day in the UK
the first day in Newcastle, sorry for looking outside the window
there are some workers
I have no idea if they can see me through the window
it would be really awkward if they can see me
They can actually see me
this is awkward. Well a little update from yesterday
Yesterday was the day I came here, 17th of September
everything went by so quickly
I was carrying all the luggages from the airport
to the metro station and the city centre and from there , on foot, to the accommodation
this was supposed to be a 3 minutes walk, but no
Ioanna had to make it a 1 hour walk
because she couldn't use the internet, no google maps, so I got lost
I got lost in the centre
So yesterday I didn't manage to film anything
Luckily, [from the accommodation] they gave me a duvet and two pillows
which I have to return, so that's why today I bought new ones
The mattress is so comfortable
I had the best sleep last night, I was really tired
after all the traveling
So, yes, today I woke up
and I was extremely happy
I might be the only person who wakes up, looks outsite the window
and gets excited because of the rain
the weather is cloudy
Now we can see some parts of a blue sky
Let's start tyding the room
I'd like to share with you this experience
Hola, welcome to another little clip
in this vlog,
the first #BritishLittleDiaries
It's officially day number 2 , don't worry I'm not going to cound down avery single day
I came here to do a mini haul kind of video
because I bought some stuff for the new room
I wanted to show you those things
I didn't buy a lot of things, I don't want to fill the room yet
it's still not fully decorated
I want to save some money first
Certainly in the future I'll make a ''Room Tour'' video
If you'd like to see that write a comment down below
I am really excited
with all the decoration ideas that I have in my mind
Basically I bought all the things from three stores
the first one is - of course-
Primark. There was no way to come to England and not go to Primark
The second store is -my paradise- Poundland
everything you buy is 1 pound
It's very cheap , you can find amazing offers
1 pound or maybe 2 pounds
You can find homware products
for the kitchen, the office
everything is literally 1 pound
and the third store I visited is Wilko
which is a supermarket
but on the top floor you can also find
homeware and kitchen products
There are also really good student deals
Let's see what I bought
I'll start with the biggest thing
that I see right in front of me
it's this cute little carpet
it's really cozy and fluffy
I got it from Primark
6 pounds only
I apologise, I still don't know how much is it in euros
Sorry for telling the prices in pounds
This carpet was supposed to be for the bathroom
But I don't think it's one of those where you can step on with wet feet
I decided to put it next to my bed
so that I can wake up and
my feet could feel something warm and cozy
Also from Primark
I got this
decor light, it says ''hello''
and you can turn it on with some batteries
it was on sale for 2 pounds
I couldn't just leave it
Later on, I got this cute candle, it was vital for me to have a candle in my room
the scent is vanilla
and it's
the best thing I've ever smelled
it was only 1 pound, so I bought it right away
I, also, got this soap case
marble
How extra could I be?
I really liked it, there is no specific reason why I bought it
liked it, bought it, period
this was 3 pounds
and the quality is amazing
keep that in mind for later
Last thing I got from Primark
is this hair dryer
I really needed one of these, because I haven't brought one from Greece
It was really important for me to buy
normally, the price was 6,50 pounds
but, it was on sale for 3 pounds
that was a really good deal
Off to my ultimate favorite Poundland
I can't get enough of this store
The first thing I got
let me show you the biggest one
It's this huge set of boxes, which was not 1 pound of course, but 5 pounds
because you get five boxes, one huge white box
and four others, small ones
I can use them for my make up
medicine
Come on man
I can put inside
He is joking, right?
As I was saying, I'll use them for medicine,
pens and stuff for the desk
That was an amazing deal
Also, I bought
this cutlery set, one knife, one fork, table spoon, tea spoon
It was 1 pound
I coudln't miss it
I also got this plate
also marble, really extra, I know
I just coun't resist
Found it for 1 pound, as you can understand I put it in my bag immediately
Along with this marble plate I, also got
this soap case, also marbled case
this was also 1 pound
It's important that I talked about the quality
Because this one from Primark (3 pounds)
is way better than this one
It's neither glass or plastic
yes, you can see a difference in the quality
But this is not a problem
this a bathroom set and I am already in love
Also, I got cleaners
and Fairy for the dishes
Before starting to put all of my things in place
I tried to clean the whole room
and also the bathroom
it is really important , when you go to your new room
no matter how brand new it might be
My room is completely new, I am the first person who lives here
Apart form that, before putting everything in place
with these cleaners
I basically cleaned all the surfaces, just to be sure
that the room is 100% clean
The final store of this haul
is Wilko
the supermarket with the homeware
First of all I bought a duvet
and two pillows
I already had sheets with me
I just bought a duvet
Here i am is extremely cold
Right now, from the whole floor I am the only one who turn on the heat
all day long
even when the heat automatically turns off
I turn it on again
For me, at least, the cold here is too much
I found an amazing student deal, so I bought the duvet
for 14 pounds
Again, I'm sorry I don't know how much it's in euros
and the pillows were four pounds the pair
which is amazing
a favorite pice of decoration
I'm not showing you yet, where I'll put it
it's this thing
It's my favorite song and especially, the lyrics
mean a lot to me
Call me ''candle maniac''
I got one more candle, this one
has the letter 'I' in the front
I won't light up this one, I'll keep it for decor
it was 1 pound
And the last thing I got is this mug
just a simple , white, mug
I just wanted to drink my tea
I think it was
3 pound? No, it was 1,50 pounds
it was 1 pound and 50 pence
I really liked it
I think I will buy many more mugs
apart from candles I have a thing with mugs also
I really hope you enjoyed this mini haul
At this point I think
I'll finish the first video
about England
soon there will be many university activities
and that will be a new video
I think I'll finish here the first episode of British Little Diaries
I really hope you liked the video
whatever you'd like to ask me
write down in the comments below or send me on Facebook
on Instagram, whatever you like
I would love to answer, I don't know what else should I say
For real, I have a big smile all day long
I can't stop smiling
I haven't stopped going to the centre
looking at the streets, the stores, the restaurants
the architecture, the buildings are so amazing
It's like I am in Hogwarts
There comes the Harry Potter fan, I just can't, everything here is so incredible
I was walking on the university today and I was picturing
McGonagall coming out of class or, there is Dumbledore's office.
Crazy Harry Potter fan
