What does it cost to live comfortably in Nha Trang, Vietnam, for one month?  Below are our actual expenses for the month of April 2019 – when we spent a month in a beachfront Airbnb.

We also made a three-night side trip by bus to Dalat, Vietnam.

We use the free app ‘Spending Tracker’ to record every penny we spend as we endlessly roam around the planet. Each morning, over coffee, we recount and enter the previous day’s expenditures.

Do you know what you spend every day/week/month? We would highly advise anyone wanting to do long-term travel/living/retirement to get a clear understanding of all costs involved. 

Apartment rents……  $574.00
Restaurant/Bar………  $409.45
US property…………..  $387.50
Travel……………………  $144.90
Groceries………………  $115.85
