  • If only it would be so. In the last 2-3 years everything has become extremely expensive. A lot of my friends with cars who live not far from the border regularly go to Germany for basic products, because even things like bread, milk, eggs, etc. (that’s not what they go there for, but still) are often more expensive here without discounts. Housing is just outrageous. With much lower salaries, the prices for a square meter are about the same on average. Surprisingly, it’s not discussed as actively as about a lot of other countries. I’m ranting because I actually loved this country and really wanted to live here.


  • In the Czech Republic refugees (no matter the education or experience) now often earn around €700 - €900, with non-refugee average salary of around €1600 (which is not enough for a comfortable living), and a huge percentage of Ukrainian refugees, after staying here (in CR) for a few months, are moving to Germany and other countries. I’m not trying to say that it’s all good in Germany, but it really puts things into perspective.
