Hello! I live in Australia, and this time I would like to talk about my daily spending in Australia.
First of all, about the cost of meals, it is very expensive than in Japan. If you eat out, it costs about $ 15 to $ 20 per person. Coffee is also about $ 3 to 5 dollars. If it is a little rich, it will take more. When procuring ingredients in a supermarket, the price is higher than in Japan. In particular, meat and seafood are indispensable for regular diet, but there are many cases where affordable prices are found.
Regarding transportation expenses that are indispensable in everyday life, Australia is a large country, so if you travel in Japan, you will use an airplane. In the case of long distances, it may cost hundreds of dollars, so you need to have a budget. Also, when using public transportation, it is higher than in Japan. In the case of Sydney, an average of about $ 3 to 4 dollars on a single train or bus is used.
Finally, as part of living expenses, housing expenses are indispensable, but rental properties in Australia are quite expensive. In the case of a single, even if you rent an apartment living alone, it often costs more than $ 200 a week. In addition, the rent and water expenses are also charged to the rent, so it occupies a large weight in living expenses.
This concludes about the day spending in Australia. You may find it very expensive, but it is important to spend money well according to your individual lifestyle.
