Moving to England in Dec'19 End

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

AirBnB is probably your best bet, or perhaps a Premier Inn; you can use Google to find those, although, at that time of year in London, it won't be cheap.

Winter weather in London can vary between mild to cold; I'd bring a winter coat and shoes, you'll look kind of weird walking around wrapped in blankets.  As for a rice cooker; we do have them in the UK and you could probably make better use of your 20 kg baggage allowance.

One word of advice, you haven't told us what kind of job you're coming to and there is absolutely no reason why you should, but a lot of people are getting scammed being offered jobs in the UK; suffice to say, unless the job is in the highly skilled-migrant category, or one of the short-term au-pair roles, be very careful.  Under no circumstances should you have to pay anybody for a job or visa.

If you have any further specific questions, please come back to us.

Hope this helps.

You can buy everything you need in London, but if you want to bring things because they are cheaper in India then sure, bring the rice cooker. I think in India they have those inexpensive lightweight rice cookers. Bring warm clothing and blankets, a thick jacket and sweater, gloves, thermal underwear, hats and a scarf. Basically everything in the UK is going to be a lot more expensive than in India. You can find most Indian spices easily in the UK, but if saffron is cheap in India then why not bring some or some other favorites.
