Which of the following cities would you be able to live in if you were offered U$52,000 a year?

I wouldn't mind live in these cities outside Europe only if I was super rich.
It must be awful not to be rich and live for example in Mexico City...

Most EE capitals (countries) are not so bad as many of you can think.

[GiCa]

All of them. But should i choose the ones that inspire me more?

Capital cities usually are authentic holes, being them in the East or in the West.
My personal experience: Madrid is a hole. Bucharest is a super hole.

Alright so my reply.

I couldn't live anywhere in Asia because of the cultural shock. I thought about Shanghai for a while but it's still too homogenous for me to live there. I would think about it twice if it had more expats.

I couldn't live anywhere in Africa either except for Cape Town because it seems like an amazing city. A friend studied abroad there and loved it.

.

All my answers depend on my living there for a limited amount of time.

I agree with the Asian thing being too much of a culture shock (including India and MidEast, except Istanbul, Ankara and Beirut).

In the America's I could live in Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo, in Africa in Johannesburg and Cape Town. In Europe I could live in almost any of these cities for a year or so.

I earn fifth of that (more than a decent pay for this country, but I'm not really good with money), around here you could live like a king with such a paycheck

It depends what one calls a hole.
I have been to Madrid, well for example Prague is more beautiful (I know you'll like this so much ) , but I could live in Madrid....
As for Bucharest I haven't been there... but it can't be so awful. I know people who were e.g. in Kiev and I was said it was OK .... and Romania is richer than Ukraine...

Sarajevo for sure.

Madrid has better infrastructures and services than Praga by far.
But still is a hole full of immigrants and with the typical chaos that all biggest cities have.

Go to Bucharest and then we talk...

Praga is beautiful and I wish some day travel there. The Jewish influence is what I dislike of it and makes me think about this. Some weeks ago I watchec a documentary about Praga. They talked about being divided in five districts or something so. Looked nice (except that of Jews, I repeat).
