But what does it cost to buy or rent a place to live? That's the first thing you have to be sure is covered. Also, coming from the UK, what seems cheap to you isn't cheap to the rest of the world. The original poster is from Poland, so there is a good chance that the cheap prices you quoted would seem really expensive to him, especially if he is comparing them to prices in Malaysia or Thailand. For instance, a mango cut up and put on a stick for easy eating was about 30 US cents in Thailand, in a tourist area. That's 15 British pence.
