[QUOTE="Antnix1, post: 976108, member: 99421"] I met an unfortunate Polish guy, although he lived in Germany with a German income. Well, he enjoyed living the high life in France, so by the time he reached Spain his savings ran out. He wasn't a beggar like some broke "pilgrims" but happily accepted bread and wine, and got a friend abroad to gift him money for accommodation. Anyway.. i only started in St Jean and after a while got into the habit of preparing my own lunch and sometimes breakfast-at least i refused to pay €3 for stale bread and bad coffee. I usually stayed in private albergues where the cost was €12-15 (and a booking.com rating of 8.5 or higher), twice a week got a private single room, and usually had a restaurant meal/pilgrim menu in the evenings.... Alcohol bumped up my costs and overall I could have saved a lot more. By the same token, France is way more expensive than Spain. It will come down to how much comfort you want and how much socialising in bars and restaurants you want to do. Seeing as you could pay €30 for a bottle of wine in a nice french cafe you could easily spend a lot of money whiling away your evenings. [/QUOTE]
