Living and Traveling in London

At 08:30 on Monday, Florian arrives at the station. He realizes he has forgotten his Oyster card for the journey.

Ravi tells him that a contactless card is faster for the gate. The system charges three pounds fifty for the trip to the city center.

The station announcer says that roadworks near the office cause a delay. Florian decides to take the train instead of the bus.

He arrives at the estate agent at 10:15. He needs to check the tenancy agreement before he signs the contract.

The agent explains that the deposit is mandatory for the housing security. Florian reads the document carefully for thirty minutes.

The weather is rainy, so they stay inside the office. Florian asks if the utility bills are included in the monthly rent.

Ravi mentions that his doctor appointment is at 14:00 today. He must leave the building immediately to avoid the heavy traffic.

Florian signs the paper and pays the first month. He feels happy because he has found a comfortable apartment.

They go to a restaurant for lunch at 13:00. The total bill for two people is twenty-five pounds.

Florian uses his phone to pay the bill quickly. He feels ready to start his new life in the capital city.
