RE: How Expensive is Guadalajara, Mexico? Challenge: Eating Out on $10 Per Day

in #food7 years ago

Amen to that! It's so easy to spend more money than anticipated. Here in Mexico, I think sometimes we get into this mentality of "but it's SO cheap," even though we're still on a tight budget. Here in Guadalajara, it would be possible to get by on $5 a day, assuming you're sticking to the vendors and markets.

Thanks for watching @olawalium!

Yes, definitely. Sticking to the vendors would be a lot cheaper. Going to an eatery here, you could pratically exhaust that $10 in two meals, that is #3,600 in our local currency. A plate of maybe fried rice with chicken and drink, should cost you half that price, depending on the eatery. I look forward to the next post, as always. Well done guys. Hello to Laska for me.

Interesting! We'd be so lost if we were trying to do the challenge in a completely different currency. It's taken a while to get used to converting things and what certain items should cost in pesos.

Hahahahahahahahaha. You definitely know how to crack me up.
You are right, it could be a bit confusing converting. When you were doing those challenge videos, i was doing the calculations in $ and not in Pesos. Could be confusing sometimes hahaha.
