You can take a gap year if you want to, manye people don't have that opportunity. In fact, I am thinking of taking a gap year also...now it's just too rush with all the visa and crap, eventhough i applied for this years intake, don't know whether i can make in in time. When you take a year off, you can go for cooking class, guitar lesson etc which would be good if you are staying alone next time...cause this is the only time that you will be able to have so much free time already, at least until you're retired at 50+years old...


Nizadi: thanks for the site. Not really what I'm looking for though. Looking for some short term accommodation e.g. hostels in London to stay in while I look for more permament ones. Thanks again.

I want to ask about insurance. I'd like to get one that covers me on my stay there in case of accidents and hospitalization. Can recommend me a good company which cover expenses overseas?

i've found delivery service that is relatively the same price as keeping the luggage in london.

standard price for keeping luggage is GBP5 per luggage per 24 hours. so assuming u have 2 bags totaling 30kg, that's 10 pounds a day. eurotrip takes what? a week enough ah? that's GBP70.

delivery service to malaysia (lembah kelang area) is about GBP80 per carton (61x51x41cm, max 35kg). refer here . delivery zones vary, but lembah kelang is the cheapest. the most expensive one would be sabah sarawak, which is about GBP120 per carton.

trust me, traveling around europe, u'd want to keep as little baggage as possible. u'd be buying lotsa stuff around there, so u might not wanna keep a heavy luggage around. send it back home!

It's depends on what do you plan to do. But spm, diploma cert aren't quite useful over here. But if i were you, i would bring along.

well, for clothing.. usually during winter we are wearing jumper or cashmere to keep our body warm.

cheapest flight back to malaysia will be book via online website....

bring original copies just in case, but they are pretty useless anyway.

too much? doesnt matter as long as it keeps you warm and comfy.

cheap flight offer? www.leestravel.com give them a call and ask what they have.

as soon as possible. royalmail international sign for might be able to get your letter back home in 10 days.

if not courier service takes abt 3-5 days, but costs a bomb.
