It's so much easier in the first world countries with the budget I would say.

I remember one meme and it goes like this:

"I wonder if Bear Grylls could survive in Balkans with a pay of 300 euros, and the price of rent only is 200 euros".

Thank God, I'm not in a situation like that, but it still isn't easy, as I'm not left with that much money after I pay something.
