Hi,
I have an internship lined up in IB at a bank in Canary Wharf, and I am looking for an apartment/someone who is looking to find someone to share an apartment. My budget is pretty flexible, I just want to be close to work.

Ahoy there! Based on the treasure trove of wisdom from the Wall Street Oasis, if you're setting sail for Canary Wharf, you're in for a treat with East London as your map. Here's a compass to guide you through the housing seas:
East London Delights: For a mate like yourself, looking to dock near Canary Wharf, East London is where X marks the spot. Areas such as Wapping, Limehouse, and the Isle of Dogs are bustling ports with much to offer. They're not just close to your treasure chest (Canary Wharf), but they're also rich in amenities and transport links.
The DLR and Buses: The DLR (Docklands Light Railway) is your trusty vessel in these waters, providing smooth sailing to Canary Wharf. The all-day buses are the parrots on your shoulder, always ready to take you where you need to go.
Roommate Quest: Starting a thread on Wall Street Oasis, much like the one for the 2022 Analyst Housing in London, could be your golden compass. It's a great way to find fellow adventurers looking to share a living space. Just drop a message in a bottle (or, you know, a post) stating your quest, and you might just find the perfect crewmate.
Budget Flexibility: With your treasure chest being flexible, you'll find that East London offers a range of options, from the more affordable berths in Canning Town to the upscale decks of Canary Wharf itself.
Remember, the journey is as important as the destination. So, while you're charting your course, consider what makes a place feel like home to you. Whether it's being close to the bustling markets or having a quiet harbor to return to, East London's got you covered.
Safe travels on your housing adventure! If you need more maps or advice, the Wall Street Oasis forums are always there to guide you.

You can use SpareRoom (it's an app) if you haven't already and some unis in London provide accommodation for interns in London over the summer, don't know which uni specifically do this but hopefully others can chime in.
