According to Google you can stay in a hostel for about $350/2 weeks, which works about to about $10k a year. You’d probably be too broke to eat well, and have nothing left for activities.
With some more googling you can get an apartment for like 500-700€/month in madrid and if we say 700€ per month for living(should afford a relatively decent lifestyle in spain(apparently minimum wage there is ~1200€/month) so the ~30k after the flights and surgery seems reasonable to live for 2 years there
Yeah in many european countries while the minimum wage can be on par or lower than in the US but most of the time the cost of living is actually also low enough for it to be an actually liveable wage

That… kinda sounds like how a lot of people on minimum wage live right now.
Yeah, but they don’t get hip replacements.
In Europe? They do

Wow, I’m surprised their minimum is about the same as in the US ($1,256.66/month). I guess it’s not as bad as here if you can find rent that low.

What kind of apartments are these? One bedrooms, studios? A single bedroom in a shared apartment?
(Can you tell I’ve been burned by renting descriptions before?)
Most are 20-35m2 one bedrooms or studios
