You have something to share with us please?

I would say food prices is a problematic point ... one can go with 6€ per day I guess, which would end up with total of 360 euros per month for 2 persons. I included a lifestyle with going out to a restaurants and wine bars on Fridays/Saturdays ...

Hello

The reason why we expect each and everyone to share their costs, is of course because each and everybody have different kind of lifestyle :top:

You did well.

Hope other members too can give the cost of living in their region.

Have a great day
