I've lived in quite a few countries. Here are my rents, always furnished, always in a reasonably good location, with the exception of Alexandria Egypt:
- Chiang Mai, 2012, Nice studio apartment, $250 USD/m
- Alexandria, Egypt, 2012, Simple shared apartment in bad location, $100 USD/m
- Berlin, 2013, Shared apartment, 330 Euros/m
- Barcelona, 2013, Very simple Shared Apartment: 270 Euros/m.
- Medellin, 2014, Simple shared house, $250 USD/m
- Lisbon, 2014, Reasonably nice Shared Apartment, 330 Euros/m
- San Pedro La Laguna Guatemala, 2014, basic 1br Apartment, $180 USD/m
