My lifestyle as a nomad had an estimated total cost of $453 for the entire month of March 2019. It was entirely spent in Hanoi, Vietnam. Last month was almost double the cost of living at $1,429. A $976 reduction but in the same general locale. [visual]

At almost a thousand dollars less than the previous month, this was a little closer to my “normal” cost of living yet still fairly low. Staying in the same city and a long-term Airbnb helped keep costs down.
