South East Asia is a possibility. Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia etc.

You can live pretty much anywhere in Europe on 2100 usd.

Really ? And europe would be the most expensive region of the world to travel around aye ?

[–] sepia_dreamer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

More expensive to get around the US / Canada, but Europe is second.

[–] AppropriateRecipe342@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Africa is often forgotten about on this thread, but it's the most expensive to get around in. Transportation between countries isn't as smooth or easy as Europe or LATAM and the cost of flights will add up fast.

In most Europe that what it will cost only for Airbnb for one month

2100 USD is not enough to stay in hotels or AirBnB. So he stays in hostels which is maximum 20 euro/day in Western Europe. On remaining 1500 euro he will do just fine.

only in the big cities you can pay between 1500 euros and 2500 euros a month for AIRBNB. if you go outside of the big cities you can find decent spots. Recently saw 500 euros / month for a studio near Valencia Spain, it was 200 meters from the beach too.. (not in the city, some 50km from it, but there was train/bus access).

its winter and prices are lower. in summer you can find these things for 700

There is no where in the world you can not live on 2100 usd a month. So everywhere.

I think there's living and there's living. I'm from London originally but live in France now. I had a hankering for living in a big city again last summer but I knew that London is very, very expensive these days. I'd love to try New York as that seems like an incredible city but again I know it's too expensive. I went to Mexico City and it was amazing. And cheap.

Ofc you can not live on Times Square on 2100usd. But it is more than the majority of people in the world live on.

[–] cactusqro@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

True, but many people DN at least in part for the higher quality of life they can afford in lower COL countries. More bang for the buck. As another commenter said, there’s living, and then there’s living.

[–] buzzer94@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I was thinking maybe certain parts of the world would cost too much ? But if your correct then thats amazing

[–] CanalBloody@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You can live in prob 99% of the world on 2100, and exist on that amount on most of the rest of that 1%

[–] blueboy022020@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Except major cities in Europe

[–] Separate_Lab_3353@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

There are people in every major city living on less. Never said you would live a jetset life. But you Will not die from hunger.

[–] Dragon9000-9000@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Rent for a one bedroom apartment in most major US cities is over $2,100/mo. In many cities it is over $3,000.

Buenos Aires

[–] gamblingblekksprut@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I think most place in south america, that's gonna be sufficient. What's your preferences?

[–] petrichorax@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The balkans. Serbia has a lot of english speakers.

Turkey, but less english speakers.

[–] diverareyouok@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago
