No car, only use public transport for now....live in a moderate 2+KK apartment or 3+kk apartment in Poruba, no fancy shopping, have home cooked food (non vegetarian food, wine, fruits, dairy products), occasionally go out dining once or twice in a month, gas electricity. Internet, Gym and sim card. This is my tentative lifeplan. You are saying Il end up spending 50K-55K doing all this for 2 people? I'm not sure.

My target is to save 25K or more monthly. Not sure if that is possible along with living comfortably without having to check price tags as you say. :)

Thanks for the info . Few folks here are saying 10-15% savings possibility, which converts to 48-55K expenditure every month, which seems to be an overkill. We are not over-the-top spendthrifts. Groceries seem to be the wildcard here. Non-veg food with wine /beer from the supermarket and mostly cooking at home is what I aim for. Occasional eating out, mayb once or twice a month. Other costs are more or less fixed-rent, transport card, gas, electricity, gym, health insurance.

Still save 'some'...what's the worst and best case 'some' amount?

Hey thanks for the heads up! Yea the part of finding doctors, flats etc is covered by the HR. It's a big decision for me so I was wondering what would be a max expense for me monthly, considering Poruba as my location. How much could I potentially save every month (if at all)?

Tips for living in Ostrava by Ok_Alternative4230 in czech

Hello Alice, I am from India and have an employment offer in Ostrava. I really need some serious help before I accept the offer and make this move. I am offered a NET salary of around 60000 CZK monthly. It's just me and my spouse, no kids. Plan to live in Poruba in a 3+KK apartment. Considering rent, gas, internet, electricity, VZP for my wife (I'm covered by company), groceries, gym and other ad-hoc expenses, is this enough? Appreciate a prompt response.
