They say that there are countries where you can live for pennies

It's good there where we are not - as we say, but deep down we know that there are places in the world where life is much easier, more measured and, more importantly, cheaper than ours. It is unpatriotic, of course, but what sometimes bothers with the realization that your whole life is a struggle! And for that struggle, with whom or with what - you will not know until the end of your days. And so, no, no, let the seditious thought worry the tired soul : there are some countries where you can live for pennies, where the puddles and dairy rivers, and the sun overhead all year round ...

In order not to leave the article very sad, let's try to count on their fingers how many of them there are in the world, these wonderful lands, and are they anyway? The modern person is ashamed to ask such children's questions: the "Iron Curtain" has long since collapsed, and for a long time already "homo sovieticus" has learned that there is another life, and capitalism, maybe, and rot, but it smells delicious. No, it's again about the sad - the author of the article today is clearly not the mood. Agreed in fact - the conversation about the country where you can live for a penny. There are such, and you can live there, but you want to - everyone decides for himself. So…

After studying a few ratings of cheapness in the first place all the time is Thailand. Yes, the country is fabulous, the climate is wonderful. Copecks are not a penny, but for a few dollars you can eat all day. If you cook yourself, in general, beauty, products in local markets are very cheap. Rent a room near the sea will cost thirty dollars a month. If you want to stay here forever, you can buy a house on the coast for a ridiculous price and spend the rest of your life at the resort ...

Not much more expensive living in the Philippines. In this country, where you can live for pennies, a steady glory is most hospitable. To visitors here are treated with great respect and even with a certain servility. No wonder the expression was born: "Servility in Filipinos in blood, like the Russians revolutionary." In the popular resort of Cebu with sandy beaches and large shopping centers, you can rent accommodation for $ 150 per month. In less prestigious and more noisy places - in general for 40 dollars. More expensive will be an apartment or a house in a big city - about $ 360.

On one level with the Philippines is Cambodia, famous for its exotic islands, chosen by Russian billionaires. The best accommodation can be found here for $ 200. If we talk about nutrition, then this is the place where you can live for free practically: lunch in the coastal cafe will cost $ 1, and in the restaurant - $ 2.

Costa Rica is a paradise for pensioners. This is called this island country for a unique mild climate - all year round +25 ... + 26 degrees. And for the cheapness of living and rest. With 500-600 dollars on hand, you can live a month in an excellent house on the ocean, eat at a restaurant with the whole family for $ 5, and if you want to tinker in the kitchen, the products on the market will cost no more than 50 cents. That's really an example of a country where you can live for pennies.

Continue? It is possible and in Europe to live for less money and with better conditions than we have. Here you can note Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia. But the trouble is: we do not know how to live somewhere. Travel, rest - please. And right back. And do not look any more where in Russia you can live better. It is good only at home. It's not for nothing that the classic was stitched: "Two feelings are marvelously close to us: love for native ashes, love for fatherly coffins." And in general, on these fabulous shores are hurricanes, then typhoons, then revolutions. And even the dream country of the author of these lines - Costa Rica - in a certain year covered such a hurricane that it was necessary to sigh with sorrow: "There is no happiness anywhere. Only at home".
