When I was in Manchester (2)
and... The employee told us that the hostel was full. He said that we should wait till 9am or 10 because maybe some rooms might be empty. So we waited in a coffee shop.
Finally we got a bed but it was in a room with about twenty two other people. persons more or less. We had achieved our first goal, a place for sleep. Now we needed to find an apartment and jobs.
We spent every day walking around the city trying to find jobs and an apartment. In the first week we found an apartment near of the city center. It was perfect!! A few days later, we found jobs in a pub. The interview was at the night at the pub and later we drank a bottle of white wine lol. But this was good for me because my English was not good. Thanks to the wine, my english was better (or so I thought) because I had no shame.
Finally we got the work. In the pub, the tips were really good and I could live with this job.
I was there for three months more or less. I had good friends there and when I had to return to Spain I was really sad. It was a really good experience for me and I will always be grateful to the people that helped me there.

What an adventure! I wish I was brave enough to do something like this. I enjoyed this story, Gnomo.
