Our real number.
People ask what it actually costs to live in Da Nang. Here's ours: about $2,240 a month.
That's rent, groceries, eating out, Grab everywhere, gym, coffee — the whole life. Not the business stuff, not the one-off medical bills, not the visa paperwork. Just our normal month.
Everybody's number will be different. But knowing ours is the reason I never wonder where the money went.
We track it all in the Expat Budget Tracker. Link if you're curious > app.expatbudgettracker.com/welcome
