    Thanks for being so open with income/expenses! Vancouver is definitely doable on a budget. I've lived there, worked at a bakery, and also was able to put money aside.

    Wow $1,500 for downtown Vancouver is pricey but not as bad as I thought! The prices in downtown Toronto here are legit INSANE, if you're in the heart of downtown Toronto everything is pretty much $3,000 and up! Love that you found a rhythm with groceries! I have 4GB too hahha! So amazing how much you end up saving every month!! This was so insightful, loved your complete transparency!!

      It is not bad. I would have thought the rent would be at least $2,000!

    Great video, appreciate the transparency! $1750 per month isn't bad at all! Your rent is actually very cheap. I live by myself in Yaletown and I'm paying $1900 for a 700 sq. ft. 1 bedroom condo - AND that is actually a "bargain", all the comparable units around me are well over $2000. It's by the water and has all the amenities such as swimming pool, gym, theatre, pool table, etc. but yeah I wish my rent was $1550!

      Oh wow! what sort of work do you do?! that's amazing you can afford that rent! :O impressive!! i couldn't do more than $950 and survive tbh! i paid $850 in kitsilano in a sharehouse with 3 others! and now $750 for a tiny 1 bedroom. i do have a view though :) :) yaletown is gorgeous though!!

      I know it may sound weird 😅 but If you can talk about E-business opportunities that are available or even potential in Vancouver! That would be the more than great🙏🏻

    Melbournd is cheaper I think. Avg salary is more compared to Vancouver and we pay 25 dollars a month for 20GB data here. That's MASSIVE!! Your videos are really helpful for comparison. I love Canada and always have a thought of moving there.

    Davie vs Yaletown - can you rate based on livability and security in general?

    • @SashSays
      @SashSays  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly it’s hard to say!! They are so close together. I would both are as safe as each other. Possibly Davie St area could be a bit safer cause more shops/restaurants are open late. Yaletown is quieter but has a train station... so that can be dodgy. I’m a woman, so i think about night safety a lot 😬😬 but yeah.. otherwise yaletown is higher end shops and buildings. You get a fairer price range for apartments around Davie ☺️

      @SashSays  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fair question!! Honestly to find a single apartment for that without sharing is near impossible!!
      My partner moved in back in 2019 and no rent has increased since.
      Look for older lower level apartments in the west end :)
