Hi,

kindly go through these posts to have an idea about the cost of living, even though accommodation is provided i dont think you may be able to save much

180bd? I wouldn't bother coming here for that to be honest.

I completely agree with @Lindochka - 180 BD is on the low side considering a relocation of your life to a new country - even with accommodation provided it still would be tough to save any money.

Definitely heed @logicalindian and have a look at the cost of living threads.

Will be tough for you to save money for sure.. I doubt you will be able to save any if the transportation, housing, communication allowance is included in 180
