Strongest purchasing power on arrival. Here’s the price of a basket of goods inc beers, water & meals, which costs £72.14 in the UK (Brighton), compiled by the Post Office at today’s exchange rates (it can vary by city too – this was priced at tourist resorts):
Hungary (£37.40)
Bulgaria (£39.52)
Thailand (£42.31)
Spain (£45.26)
Bali (£52.51)
Kenya (£52.60)
Malaysia (£57.71)
Croatia (£63.46)
Greece (£64.02)
Egypt (£65.45)
USA (£75.70)
Turkey (£76.08)
I was surprised to see Spain so cheap, much cheaper than supposedly cheapo destinations like Egypt and Turkey. I live here and it certainly doesn’t feel cheap.
Some mistake, d’ya think?
