Thanks for such a detailed and useful reply!

Am I right in thinking however that Sofia in Bulgaria is far, far cheaper than Warsaw or Prague at the moment? Like, maybe even half the price?

Thanks for that info! I can't afford to pay that as I am poor myself :{

Perhaps I need to go further east. Bulgaria or somewhere? I think people earn half as much there but if anyone can confirm this it would be very useful!

OK, so to summarize, if I go to Warsaw instead of Prague then I definitely won't be taxed twice, but we're not certain about Prague. Is that right? I'd probably just as happilly go to Warsaw as Prague.

Thanks for this, guys. I'm not going to worry about the tax thing. I'd probly just go for about two months, come back for a month, then go again for two months and so on. I'll just repost my previous question in case it goes unnoticed... anyone know what a poorly paid job pays in Prague? The sort of...

And for my final question, anyone know what a poorly paid job pays in Prague? The sort of part time job a student might take. For example, working as a cleaner or in a shop or as a waiter/waitress. Any ideas? I need to employ an assistant, you see, just to help out with very basic things. Thanks for...

Thanks for your help, John. But surely the tax issue depends on where you are an official resident. I will be "on holiday" in Prague for a few months, technically speaking. I will still officially be a resident of the UK. Surely people who go on holiday don't pay tax in two countries - eve...

For some reason, I'm not attracted in Ireland, and I want really really cheap. I'm very attracted to Prague, let's stick with that for the moment... The question is, what sort of rent would I have to pay in Prague? I can't stand suburbs, I want to live in the really exciting areas with lots of bars ...

Whereas if you move to a country such as the Czech Republic you will probably end up paying income tax on your royalties. Actually I wouldn't move there in the legal sense. I would just go out there for a few months then come back for a few weeks to visit family, do that several times throughout th...

Thanks for the reply, johnsienk! Prague is a city I have been considering. It is very likely that I will choose Prague. Can anyone tell me, if move to Prague, and if I employ a personal assistant to help out around the house, how much would it cost per hour? To put it another way... What does a clea...

Hello, This will sound very naive because I have not travelled much in Europe and my geography is appalling, but I live in the UK and need to move to a very cheap country. By profession I am a novelist, with a UK publisher, so wherever I live in the world I will still earn the same amount of UK ster...
