Default cost of living

me and my beloved are moving to spain at the end of the year having brought a place a couple of years ago ,we have put our property in uk on market now and once it is sold looking stay with family till the end of year till we go the plan is when we take our first step in spain is to have about 6months off and chill out and then look for work im just wondering how much money would you need a month roughly to get by on ?

Deja vu aint it, but you used to tell me where you were that the cost of living was more expensive than the UK, yet over here I found it 30% cheaper

I'm not even going that road again nooooooooooooooooooooo!

as i said it depends on lifestyle and how much you have to begin with, for me I have much more disposable income now.

If I was to buy what I did there here, it would be cheaper here, for sure.

Yes I wasn't joking, that really is what the normal conclusion is.
But of course you can spend a lot more if you try hard
