[SALARIES] developers earn from 1500 EUR to 5000 EUR (after taxes)
[RENT] for 1 bedroom appt: ~300-400 EUR (near the city center)
[LANGUAGE] 80% of people you'll ever meet speak good english.
[ENTARTAINMENT] Hundreds of bars, cafes and theatres. Events, meetups, festivals and concerts happening non stop.
[COMMUTING] If you live on one of the main subway lines (highly likey), it will probably take you less than 15-20 minutes to reach the center.
[LOCATION] Mountains at 2 hours (train or car), seaside at 2.5 hours.
+ there are cheap flights to any part of Europe (2-3 hours) for ~100 EUR or less.
BAD SIDE: noisy, crowded and sometimes kind of stressful - but all of these can be managed by travelling around the country, which is beautiful (lots of mountains, rivers, lakes, interesting cities to visit..)
PS: I'm born and raised here, lived in Paris and worked from other big cities. Bucharest is still the best place for me when I factor in (income, prices, lifestyle).
