      The secret about cheaper countries is they’re often very pleasant to live in if you’re willing to give up some comforts. I don’t have Uber eats but there’s a guy I know with a motorcycle I call and he picks me food from anywhere that’s around.

      Dunno who downvoted you, but it’s the truth, lol. Probably half of Balkan works in Central/Western Europe and plenty retire back in their home countries. The unfortunate situation is Balkan cost of living is inching closer and closer to Western Europe while QOL and wages either stagnate or actively worsen.
