  1. not sure, maybe 100


  2. sure,here in Latin America you live on 10  dollars every  day

  3. i would bring $200 just incase..

  4. Here's my example of the cost of living in Guatemala (and I apologize for not having your specific location):

    In Missouri: $3.50/gallon of gasoline and $6.50 min. wage/hour.

    In Guatemala: $5.50/gallon of gasoline and $ .50/hour... if there's a job!

    Most prices are raised according to the gas prices. Most items cost double to triple the American cost... Thus, the reason these countries cannot seem to get ahead. However, much depends on what you have already in your possession already when there, and what your needs are. Some (very few) things are cheaper. Motels can usually be found for about $10-$20/night, a meal (careful that you don't get sick!) can be about $2-$4, unless you're going all-American, which you'll generally pay an American price for, travel is going up as gas is, but a bus ticket for an hour trip might be about $1.25-$5. Entertainment may be free and up as expensive as you want to go there. I'd say $40/day is really pushing your limits, but if you really squeak when you walk...and don't try oiling the squeaky parts cause the oil cost too much.... it might be possible!

  5. I think you can...I lived in Peru which is very close to Bolivia, and I think for room, basic food and transportation you'll be fine...

    but if you want extra entertainment it will cost more depending on what you want to do and where you want to go..like movies, dinners, bars..

    that I dont know maybe 70 US

    good luck

  6. sure  

  7. with bottom end everything then maybe yes i could be
