The cost of living in countries like the United States, Britain, Australia or France has increased in recent years. But, if you' re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries having an extremely cheap and low cost of living. So, if you have the flexibility of living wherever you please, and want to live in a country the cost of living is the cheapest in the world, check out these 3 countries when planning your next move.
Cambodia
Cambodia may not be the first country that comes to mind when you think of a tropical paradise, but it' s pretty close. The added bonus is that living here is insanely cheap, unlike some other tropical getaways. A luxury home with four bedrooms and a pool would only cost about $ 600 a month. A decent three-bedroom vacation home can be purchased here for just $ 20,000. And, for only about $ 2,000 a year, you can also hire a gardener and housekeeper to take care of your belongings.
Ecuador
Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result, it has become a popular American getaway. They even use the US Dollar for their currency. In this country, it' s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on budget in the U. S. You can even buy a property for around $50,000 and hire someone to tend to it while you' re away.
Mexico
Although the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every amenity(便利设施) you might need. You can live off a mere $ 700 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, amenities, food, and any sights.
Watching his father die without oxygen support while suffering from a heart attack in 2020, Taher Mahmud Tarif, a Bangladeahi boy, made up his mind to build a device to prevent any more such tragic deaths. Afterwards, many COVID-19 patients experienced low oxygen levels in their blood, with demand for oxygen concentrators (浓缩器) among other medical equipment shooting up during the recent sharp rise in cases. Tarif said the situation gave him more driving force to build the device.
With the financial and overall support of Ishwardi UNO office and his educational institution, Tarif's determination and tireless efforts were rewarded with success as the ninth grader of Ishwardi Sara Marwari High School managed to make the concentrator after trying five times for about seven months, mainly using domestic components. He said that a locally made oxygen concentrator like his costs approximately $ 760 but an imported one does over $2,600.
In June, Tarif gave a detailed explanation of his invention and manufacture at the UNO office in Ishwardi at 11:00 am on Tuesday. He said it was created from his own thinking and with the addition of local technology generators and electric components. An oxygen concentrator takes in air and removes nitrogen (氮气) from it, leaving oxygen-enriched gas for use by people needing medical oxygen. " About 90 percent oxygen concentration can be generated from my oxygen concentrator machine. This machine can provide high-flow oxygen supply too. It can be very handy in local areas with no scope of getting oxygen support," Tarif added.
" This is obviously a good invention for oxygen generation. It is capable of producing high-flow oxygen so it can be used for patients or refilling oxygen bottles," said an assistant professor of Pabna Medical College Hospital. " Despite more lab and other examinations before using the machine as medical equipment," the UNO said, " Tarif's invention will probably be a great achievement during this alarming COVID-19 situation. "
Fr Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative. "It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源) of inspiration for designers, "says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.
Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled(为. . . 提供燃料) the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
"China is impossible to overlook, "says Hill. " Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion--they are central to its movement. "Of course, not only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China—some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. "Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs--and beating them hands down in design and sales. "adds Hill.
For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. " China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China--its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.
