You clearly don’t have any ‘regular’ European friends because if you did then you’d know that what you just posted is plain dumb and untrue. I have the same European junior colleagues who even with annual salaries of up to $100k in addition to sometimes receiving bonuses of $25-50k can’t afford such luxuries and to some degree even within their own country and to do that, they’d have to save a lot for a proper vacation.

The only people who travel to Africa are mostly the senior guys who’ve worked for a long period of time and have proper proper salaries. Wacha kufikiria that every white person you see has money. Live amongst them and you’ll see the struggles they also go through.

I believe you are in the US and you think that the annual salary in Europe is low compared to the US salary and therefore Europeans cant afford luxury life. It is a lie. Unlike US, in Europe you don’t pay health insurance, you don’t pay school fees for your children from primary school to university. In the US you have to pay almost 40000 dollars for university while in countries like Germany or France, you only have to pay 92 euros for the whole year.

I earn 86000 euros per year and after taxes, i have 60000 euros per year approximately 5000 euros per month. With this, i pay a studio rent of 800 euros. Being single, food is around 200 euros per month (50 per week), i put another 500 euros for going out and drinks. I have 3500 euros for savings.

What is the probability of you going bankrupt in the US if you are sick? Very high. In Europe, everything is covered. The son of my colleague was in a coma for a month and he only paid nothing for the whole period. If i were to migrate to US, my aim would be to make money for ten years and then leave for Europe or look for a remote working job.

Hii yako hapana. You can’t get a bed and breakfast at 40 euros. I live in Paris and the average bed and breakfast price is around 95 euros per night and this is suburbs.

O Rly? You need to know Paris.

Orly airport ni nje ya Paris kabisa. It is 1 hr from Paris… ni kama Rongai ama Ngong or Kitengela za Nairobi… Try and search budget hotels kama Saint Michael Notra Dame, ama kwa arrondissement za Paris, utajiju.

Africa is cheap that’s the truth. My purchasing power is ten times fold when I’m in Africa than when I’m in France. The average salary in France is 1500 euros ( a dead-end job like working in a warehouse) . Generally people with bachelors earn 2500 euros and this increases with your skills and education, especially in finance, engineering and IT. Remember in Europe you don’t pay school fees, health insurance, among other things therefore they have money to spend for holidays.

One thing my colleagues prefer French Guyana, Madagascar, and other islands in Carribeans to African islands therefore your hypothesis is wrong.

Mkuu, can I contact you once there? Usually around Rue Vivienne.

Hatipendi ushoga hapa mbwa hii. Unaenda mayolo and the first thing you wanna do hata kama hujatoka airport ni kudungia ndume ingine who is a stranger to you? Kwanza anaishi bedsitter. Utalala wapi ukifika kwake?

Off to the hole you came from. Unaweza enda kulala kwa nyumba za wanaume strangers in new town but where you draw the.line is arguing with strangers.

Africa has great weather and is cheap AF for Europeans. As winter approaches, ongoing events in Europe might benefit Africa’s tourism sector in coming months. A regular European is not wealthy enough to vacation in a first-world country for an extended period, but they can afford to visit Africa.
