When planning to japa, one essential skill you should acquire is learning how to drive. I knew this but didn't prioritize it, and now I wish I had. Learning to drive in the UK is quite expensive, with lessons costing up to ยฃ40 per hour. If you take lessons for 2 hours in a day, that's ยฃ80! ๐ซ
However, purchasing a car in the UK is more affordable. While some vehicles are pricey, you can find a fairly used car for ยฃ2,000 to ยฃ3,000 (Your 1, 2 or 3 months salary depending on how many hours you work), which will serve your needs. Owning a car offers numerous benefits, like securing a job more easily and managing your daily activities more efficiently. Local bus companies are often hiring drivers, and they pay around ยฃ15 per hour.
My workplace is only a 5-minute drive from my house, but it takes me 15 minutes by bus. If I had a car, I could leave at 8:55 AM and still make it to work by 9:00 AM. ๐
So, if you're considering a move abroad, make sure to prioritize learning how to drive โ it can make a world of difference in your new life!
