What social interactions are you expecting to achieve in those three months? You might meet people and want to hang, provided you can communicate with them. if they go to bars or clubs, that's not cheap. And rest assured, they won't consider combini food as gourmet. Anything you do outside your capsule hotel, which will kick you out during the day, will cost money. $30 a night for 120 nights is $3600 of the $7800 in your budget. A flight from London is about $1000, so that leaves you $3200 for 120 days, or $26.66-roughly 17 pounds a day.... Just getting around is going cost you about $5-6 a day, so that leaves you with $20 for food. That's going to be tough on combini food, as it's not cheap either....

Unless you're writing a book about your experience, I'd really think about this....
