I currently pay 1200 for rent and ~800 for all bills and phone and utilities and car and health insurance. I've seen that site before and there's more than a few cities that have a cost of living under that. When you travel - even if you stay for a few months - your highest expense is flights rather than board. lax - Hong Kong - Bangkok - Sri Lanka - lax - Costa Rica - lax was under $3000. If I did one month in each of those places rather than 1 week, it would be about the same. Except Hong Kong. Hong Kong is fucking expensive.
