Time on m hand, couldn't sleep
Always new comers ask
"how much do I need to live in Cambodia"
So here ya go, MY estimate, ( i live on more but there two of us)
other feel free to add anything i have missed.
did a breakdown
Room at Hometown hotel (air con, wifi, cable, hot water, great location on street 172). $300/month fan $200
food;
breakfast $2.50-3.00 (American or Chicken soup an rice with ice coffee_
lunch Sorya food court , lots of choices Rice dishes/ soup $2.50-3.00
Dinner $5-6 ( pizza, Chicken curry with rice, drink, Amok and....)
Fruit drink during day $1
water $1 ( 4 bottles) u need this!!! if not more
total/day $12- $14 x30 $360- $420 This is basic but enough
Visa $24/month
Phone $5
Laundry $20
Misc $50
Two nights out /week/month alone $80
With a lady company for ST- 8x/month $240
So alone $815- $875 with air $775 with Fan ( renting an apt MIGHT be cheaper but than u need pay for ur internet, cable, trash, electric, air, furniture and eating out alone is as cheap as eating at home)
with company $1, 055- $1,115
This is never taking a tuk tuk/ moto anywhere, going nowhere unless you walk, buying NOTHING, Saving nothing, praying you don't get sick
