Hi! I’ll be studying as an exchange student in Osaka University next summer and I’m not sure how much money I should allot monthly to be able to eat and travel around Japan comfortably (excluding rental/dorm and tuition fees)?
I don’t plan on going to boujee hotels and eating fancy, but I’d like to explore the country as much as possible (accounting transportation, phone plans and hotel costs).
I was going to allot ¥150,000 per month at first but am afraid that wouldn’t be enough. Can anyone let me know a decent rough estimate? What about ¥200,000 per month?
I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
