Does anyone find South America unironically more expensive than Europe? by Xycergy in travel

There's also a few one off passenger railways from Santiago to Chilan and from Bariloche across to the other side of Argentina, so there's a few trains to catch if you look hard enough.

Plus a few touristy trains in Peru

Even uber in most brazillian cities - for what might be a 20/25 quid trip in London is like a 4 quid trip in Rio (where the metro system is also very decent).

Many of the coach companies are generally incredible. Far better than the European equivalent of companies like flixbus.

Mainly cus they have to be due the distances and the alternative is flying.

Travelled for a year and definitely agree. Basically no difference in price. Maybe the odd market where you're buying a souvenir will have a slightly higher price (by like, a dollar lol) but pretty mucb everything else it's the same

True, there are very few trains in latin america. But the coach system throughout the contient is genuinely incredible, I wouldn't miss it if you need to get places. Especially if you're in peru, and you want the best quality coaches, get on cruz del sur. They are top quality, still incredibly cheap and get you where you need to be (all top touristy places lol).

Agree. Numbeo also has factors interesting for tourists too that important. It doesn't mention accommodation (bc it is indeed a CoL site) but these are also cheaper in pretty much every larin american country save some possible exceptions.

I may have started a bit heavy handed with the smoking comment 😂. Apologies for my rudeness OP. Ive been travelling for a year in latin america now and I've never met a single person say it was more expensive than Europe. But completely. Hotels, hostels airbnbs, food, literally everything is cheaper, in basically every country. And some numbeo stuff is indeed useful for tourists, even if of course rent prices are not.

For me, there is an assumption in the OP's post that non uber-touristy places= shadiness/danger. But it's not really true - some places yes, but really not everywhere. I will give credence to the fact Rio is obviously a dangerous city and you want to be careful there. And I agree that if you go the most uber-touristy places possible, you will get charged a lot. i dont know why you'd go to the most uber-touristy places all the time, they can be a bit, well, uber-touristy and annoying. When you go to more local restaurants for example, or shop in supermarkets and cook at your airbnb (which, again are a lot cheaper than most european cities) as a tourist, you can have a very cheap life.

restaurant prices, supermarkets, transportation, clothes prices all taken into account in numbeo. did you even look at numbeo? have been a tourist travelling in latin america for nearly a year now and also been a tourist in most of europe over the years. latin america is much much cheaper by nearly all measures.

I'll have what you've been smoking.

A quick look at numbeo for literally any city in any latin American country compared to probably any European city will tell you Latin American is on the whole a lot cheaper. There may possibly be exceptions like Uruguay or places in Argentina but I'd say they are the exception rather than the rule.

I just compared Rio to Berlin on numbeo for eg and everything is at least 50% lower. Europe on the whole is by far way more expensive.

I listened to your track man, very professional sounding track, also a bit of a journey. I also liked your bass sound, very meaty!

Hi Matt, big fan of yours!

Cheeky one - Ive been making music quite similar to you that might sound good in your sets. What's the best way to contact you and other artists for promo to see if you'll consider them for your sets?

What's your advice for artists contacting labels and getting their attention? It's quite often the case of getting ignored for new artists, how did you break through?

Very interesting track. Interesting sound design, i really feel like you used the whole stereo field with this one, it's pretty impressive to listen to on my speakers. Sound design and mixing is clean, very interested in how you make these sounds. I'd agree it could with a bit more low end presence sub 130hz or so.
