Well, I do live in the biggest city but more at the edge where rent is even lower than in the smaller cities. I could easily shave off 500€ of my monthly expenses but I don't wanna. Currently saving up for bigger expenses like 5000€ for a 3 Week Japan trip next year.

Next year is gonna be fucking expensive for me so I hope to save up to 12k this year so I won't have to hold back next year.

You got big plans for Japan?

I went for 18 days and visited Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka.

I hate to keep referencing the comparisons to my situation. But I went for $3500 during prime summer season. Was a huge mistake imo, as I could have gotten it much cheaper. If you got huge plans I can understand the expense though.

My friend will be going there soon to work, and I plan to buy a $500-$1000 ticket at some point. We gotta visit Ka-pi though :D.

5k is my buffer. I'm expecting around 4k. Gonna go for about 3 weeks to Tokyo, Kyoto and Okinawa. It's my very first trip to Japan and I plan on splurging as much as possible on souvenirs and stuff. I will certainly not hold back on anything.
