utility bill total is usually about half of the winter’s<br />

or much less.<br />

Transportation<br />

For a month-long bus pass, you can expect<br />

to pay about 15-20 euros depending on which<br />

town you are living in. A one-way bus ticket will be<br />

less than 1 euro. So we wish you a safe trip!<br />

Healthcare<br />

As an expat, you can’t recieve free public<br />

healthcare. Be prepared to pay 10-25 euros to<br />

see a doctor privately. General physicians will be<br />

cheaper than a doctor who specializes in specific<br />

or advanced treatments for certain disorders and<br />

diseases. In regards to pharmacies, most antibiotics<br />

should be less than 5 euros. Other prescription<br />

medications for disorders and diseases could be<br />

15-25 euros.<br />

Groceries<br />

Groceries will be pretty cheap in Bosnia<br />

by western standards. If you are just shopping for<br />

one or two people, expect to spend about 20-30<br />

euros a week every week and a half. This is where<br />

the cost of living in Bosnia and Herzegovina is just<br />

awesome and will be worthwhile to move there!<br />

Going Out<br />

Social life varies from person-to-person of<br />

course. In Sarajevo and all the big cities, nightlife<br />

is rich and tasteful during the whole year. A nice<br />

club in Sarajevo might cost you 15-20 euros by<br />

the end of the night. If you stick to a small bar,<br />

you could spend 10-15 euros for the whole night.<br />

You have a variety of restaurants. If you go to the<br />

trendy restaurants in the city centre, you could<br />

spend 15-20 euros for some sort of main dish and<br />

a couple of drinks. In places like Mostar though,<br />

you will be pleasantly surprised to see you can<br />

have a nice meal and some drinks for 10 euros or<br />

under. So you will be glad to move to Bosnia!<br />

Total Monthly Costs<br />

You can get by on as low as 600-650 euros<br />

a month in Bosnia. But to live more comfortably as<br />

a one-person expat, ideally, you want at least 700-<br />

750 euros a month.<br />
