I found out they actually exist and are very popular in Japan. There doesn’t seem to be any American maids but I think they would be quite successful considering American females are very popular to Japanese men and they also tend to have long legs and big breasts. So do you think they would be popular or is it based on something I can’t think of?
I am basing this off of Akihabara

You want to get a job there? I am sure they ‘ll love American girls for their rarity and the way they are portrayed in media as exotic and all that.

They say there are internet cafes in the neighborhood, but are internet cafes free?
The reason this is a big deal for me is because I’m going to Paris for school. I’ll need to use the internet.

Also, do libraries have free internet access?
The reason I asked is because I’ve never used them, in any country.

Internet cafes charge you because they live on that. They rent PCs and charge you for Internet or to print.

The best is to bring your laptop, with wifi and go to Mc Donald’s, Starbucks or to other many places that have free wifi.

You can also use Internet for free at public libraries but you have to subscribe, it’s free.

Your school may give you better advice.

Public libraries, free acces to computers and Internet

Well the location is quite busy its by westfield London but like a mile away.

Depends on location, it is the key feature to these types of business.

Is there anywhere near Paddington or Victoria that’s open late, preferably until 11pm, or at least 10pm? Would really appreciate if someone could reply quickly if there’s such a place.

If you have a smartphone, then showing the ticket on the screen is often fine if it is for a theatre or similar reservation.

If it’s a plane ticket then you need to know whether you are flying from Gatwick or Heathrow as the Heathrow express is from Paddington and the Gatwick Express is from Victoria.

A quick google found these in victoria but no opening hours:

Absolutely not.
It is a political power issue.

Does this require a degree of some kind? I tried looking it up, but without any luck. Thanks for your help!! :)

I was in interior design for a year and tbh, in this economy its horrid!!! There is no degree in just interior decorating that I know of but there is one in interior design. I actually left the art institute of seattle because I hated it and all of the projects wasn’t like I thought it would be. You have to hand draft most of the floor plans and it take up to 6 hours a night working on one simple floor plan. I thought it was just easy stuff like decorating rooms and matching colors, wow, I was wrong!

The people that I did meet that got a interior design degree at the school turned out working for furniture stores and not actually working as interior designers. It must be hard finding jobs a a interior designer these days if most of the recent graduates are working in furniture stores.

Is it rude to take photos of the foods/drinks i ordered at a restaurant/cafe/fast food in the U.S?
I wanna take photos of american foods and drinks for my blog but i don’t wanna get in any trouble.

Do American bloggers also take photos at a restaurant?
or is it simply rude and offensive to other guests dining there?
(I’m NOT gonna use flash)

need ur advices. thanks in advance!

You may certainly take photos in restaurants. Its not that it could be rude, it is just that it may be annoying but not all the time. The thing that makes taking photos in restaurants annoying is, besides the flash example, that it gets in people’s ways. For example, pictures where people have to wait in there place because if they go ahead they’ll ruin the photo. Just make sure that it does not involve others and you’ll be fine. I love taking pictures of the restaurants especially at expensive ones. Many people do it all the time when it’s a celebration so you are not the only one. Yeah bloggers do take photos in restaurants. I guess it’s ok to be a little annoying because it is very frequent but just don’t go overboard.

Everyones opinion is welcome! :)

The bar, cafe, pub or (public house) has always been the village’s living room. It was literally where you go after working in your blacksmith’s shop where they had heating, lights and all your friends were there. If you want that atmosphere that is what you want to play to, a chill spot for the whole city. Couches, a fireplace…
