While in London England I would have the privilege of living in my friend Patrick’s apartment which is intended to be used as a 4 person apartment but only he lives there with his wife Jessica. It is central London in the largest condo complex in the city called the Shakespeare tower. It is a very nice building which I have stayed in once before and it would be amazing to be able to stay with them and save some money to enjoy the city opposed to pay for a hotel room.

When we visit New York I also have a friend David who is working his first job at a law firm in the Manhattan area. He has expressed many times that he is more than happy to house any of us who choose to visit and I am more than happy to take him up on that offer! Furthermore, it would be very nice to enjoy the city with a friend who will know the city and take us to some interesting places.

Approximate cost of living throughout the trip will roughly cost $5220.00
which would be divided amongst 4 people which would cost us each $1303.00
