[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The two things that are killer are: - Airfare to get there - Being willing to live like a local, [b]not expecting the same level of accommodation as in the US[/b] There are lots of countries that are significantly less expensive on a daily basis once you get there and if you're willing to have modest accommodations/food/entertainment. India, Hungary, Argentina, Thailand, etc. But seriously, the standards are going to be seriously different. [b]Are you prepared for that? [/b] Costa Rica isn't really that much cheaper. [/quote] OP here, and of course I wouldn't expect the same accommodations. FWIW, even in the US, we are pretty frugal as cost is always a factor, so we never travel high end. I have travelled extensively internationally, including many less developed nations, so am totally prepared for different standards. Living like a local is what we would want. [/quote]
