How much does it cost to live in Brazil alone?
To live in Manaus on a moderate budget, you'll need around $797/month. That covers renting a studio in a normal area ($362), weekday lunches out ($145), weekend casual meals ($60), a daily coffee, tea, or other cheap drinks ($143), a monthly transit pass ($52), and a few taxi rides ($34). No gym, no dining out every night — just everyday life.
