[@neilhupping9106]

Can confirm that Colmar is absolutely beautiful. Was just there. Really close to Strasbourg and Germany and Switzerland too

Lloret del Mar is certainly not a cheap place to live in Spain. There are lots of cheaper places, that are also not tourist traps. I live in Spain

Sharon, could you please give a few specific places in Spain? I’m also looking for an affordable spot in Spain to consider seriously.

Yeah, and Rovinj and Krk are far from being cheap, total Tourist Regions and pretty expensive for Croatia. And I was in Colmar, maybe I was in the 'bad' part, but nothing beautiful there I could remember.

[@elainechubb971]

A nice little travelogue, but as for a really helpful guide to choosing a place to live abroad, it's not that helpful. Here are a few questions: is your video aimed at people still in the job market or retirees? One size doesn't fit all. For workers: how easy is it to get legal residency and work permits? Are there jobs? Of what kind? Do you need to speak the local language? For retirees: do a lot of tourists with accompanying nightlife make it too rowdy for a pleasant retirement? How easy is it to get around? (Note: steep streets may not be great for the elderly!) How easy is it to get affordable health care? For both: do enough local people speak English for you to manage daily living, such as shopping? How is Internet connection, can you get English-language radio/TV? Crime? Do locals welcome foreign residents or resent them or just ignore them? How easy is it to buy property, as a non-citizen? Is the government stable and unlikely to turn totalitarian? "Living" in a country means more than an extended vacation during nice weather. It's a commitment to year-round living and to adapting to local customs. Going to live abroad, you have to be fairly self-sufficient and adapt to things like lack of family and close friends.And you need to be pretty realistic.

I intend to travel to Colmar, FR in 2023. Taormina, Italy looks very interesting to me. I may go there too.

[@vahankervanbachian2918]

Great thank you!

[@kriszukowski4530]

What the video doesn’t really mention is the fact that most North American cities are simply car-infested (I know, I’m a Canadian) while most of these smallish European cities are not (I now live in one of them). So, not only cheaper, better looking, with excellent train connections, etc. but also healthier. Btw, why is an average US car so big? What for?

[@yguven67]

Same reason there are Big Macs and Whoppers.

[@jotsingh8917]

Görlitz, Saxony, Germany. Beautiful, inexpensive and next to Polish border.

[@guybristow7472]

Škofija Loka, Slovenia! I'm a Brit who has moved to Slovenia, but on the coast at Koper (near Rovinj). Slovenia is a very safe country and quite cheap compared to Western Europe, but not as cheap as the Balkans, which are within easy reach from here. Italy is just a short drive too.

[@ErnaBjørn]

I still want to visit the Balkan countries

[@tericolby1310]

Great!

[@ivanboskovic1260]

In Bar I had trouble with an Albanian manual worker. Also, neighbors are very rude if you complain of their (big) dogs barking day and night. No public toilets. Many dogs at the seaside, no asylum. Otherwise pretty safe.

[@alvin8391]

Do you mean it is safe for big dogs to bark?

[@sodubairob8251]

Great work and really appreciated but you could please please put the titles of the locations running through the duration of your videos. You only mention the name once and that is honestly not enough. If there was more convenience viewers would come back more to what is a very good channel. Timestamps would help too….Thank you….❤😊

[@ShereeR99]

It does show some lovely places but don't be fooled by the title, they are not the cheapest place or even cheap places to live

Great and Amazing to know about these beautiful towns in Europe. I have a friend, very kind from Montenegro for 20 years ago - he lives in Kalmar - the south of Sweden. We talked a lot about his country - So one day I will visit Montenegro for exploring and know more about culture as well. Thank you for sharing of your video clip. 😇🙏 Best Wishes from STOCKHOLM - SWEDEN 🌲

Question: Do these minimal average living costs include housing?

He claims so. But in Taormina or Riva, which I know, the rent are higher of the whole sum he says it is needed to live there...

I'm not sure that the cost of living prices mentioned here are accurate. I would count on double. Of course it can depend on many personal factors...
