insta:@tapioca.press subscribe:    / tapiocapress   buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/tapiocapress In this vlog, I show you exactly what I spent in a week as a 27 year old living in Beijing, China. Following a daily budget of 100 RMB (15 USD), I went out to eat, got coffee, went to shows and events, spent time with friends, and cooked at home. At the end of the video, I added up rent and utilities to show you the exact cost of living in Beijing, and how much you will need to make to finance different lifestyles in Beijing. Whether you are planing to move to Beijing, or if you want to get on top of your personal finance and start budgeting/tracking expenses, I hope this provides some helpful information, and a realistic look into cost of living in Beijing. If you have any thoughts or questions about living in Beijing/China, please leave a comment. Hope you enjoy the video! 🔖 CHAPTERS 00:00 intro 01:33 what I spent mon-wed 05:39 food prices in china 06:00 how I track expenses 07:17 what I spent thu-sun 12:52 my weekly spending 13:13 my spending habits + lessons learned 14:14 my total living expenses 14:46 cost of living in beijing 🎵 MUSIC Naomi - Clouds - https://thmatc.co/?l=ED06701A Gil Wanders - Dreams - https://thmatc.co/?l=2B7A8DCC Grace Chiang - biking to the beach - https://thmatc.co/?l=632C23F9 The Crystal Casino Band - Complicated - https://thmatc.co/?l=8677593A Gil Wanders - R.O.A.S.N (Ramen On A Summer Night) - https://thmatc.co/?l=B382909F The Crystal Casino Band - Bound To Be Something Good - https://thmatc.co/?l=FEFC78E8 The Natterjacks - So It Seems - https://thmatc.co/?l=58622A1A Original music by David Carey -    / nocturnesyequ   🙋🏻‍♀️ HELLO hi i'm Evelyn. thanks for stopping by! ➭ what do you do? i'm a tech project manager ➭ where are you located?
