大家好，我們是BORDERLESS HOUSE！
踏上沒去過的國家或城市時，總會有很多不確定的事情，其中最重要的想必就是生活費了。
一個月大約要需要多少伙食費？交通費又大約是多少呢？沒有在當地實際生活過一陣子，花費是很難估算的。
因此，本次我們調查了幾位房客在台北一個月的基本開銷，提供給想要北漂的朋友們一個預算參考的方向。
■房租：每月8,000 – 15,000元左右
在台灣有非常多型態的租屋方式。
※關於台灣的居住方式我們會再另外發表一篇部落格。
若是以台北較熱鬧的市中心來說，平均房租相對較高，一人小雅房約8,000元起跳，而套房則是每月10,000元起跳。如果希望壓低預算，建議可以從新北市的區域找起，或是與朋友合租公寓，或許有機會找到6、7,000元的雅房空間，比較有機會省下房租喔！
而入住BORDERLESS HOUSE的費用，我們也為大家整理好囉：
- 單人房： 12,500 – 16,000 元
- 女生雙人房： 9,000 – 9,500 元
- 男生雙人房： 9,000 – 9,500 元
- 女生三人房： 7,900 – 8,800 元
- 男生三人房： 7,900 – 8,800 元
- 女生四人房： 6,900 – 7,900 元
- 女生六人房： 6,700 元

■水電光熱費：每月1,000 – 1,700元左右
台灣電費收費較高，夏天的話一個人約1,000元出頭，水費則較便宜約為200元左右。
家裡有廚房的話，瓦斯費平均每月約為300元左右。
在BORDERLESS HOUSE的話，每人每月的水、電、瓦斯、網路、第四台，所有帳單全包，加起來只收800元，但因夏季電費金額較高，冷氣的使用量也會大增，因此每年5月至10月的水電光熱費則會調整成1,200元一個月喔。
■電話費、網路費：每月800 – 1,000元左右
如果另外申辦網路的話，每個月大約需要1,000元。
但如果房子的租金裡已經包含網路費的話，當然也就不需要另外支出囉。
另外，如果手機方案是網路吃到飽的話，利用手機個人熱點分享網路，也是非常好的方法之一。
但如果有預算上的考量，也可參考預付卡的方式，一個月只需要300元喔。
■伙食費：每月4,500 – 9,000元左右
在外租屋，除了房租以外，第二個大花費莫過於是伙食費了！
其實台北有很多路邊攤及超商，大部分房客一天的伙食費大概可抓在150 – 300元之間。
早餐：50元
午餐：70 – 100元
晚餐：70 – 100元
飲料：20 – 40元
但在我們的Share House裡，晚上和室友們一起煮飯，分享食材也是十分常見的事情喔！一個人煮飯常常擔心吃不完，大家一起分攤伙食費，除了可以嚐到更多樣化的菜色，也可以省下一筆不小的外食費用喔！
■交通費：每月400 – 1,280元左右
台北不只交通非常方便，交通費也十分便宜，建議大家可以多多搭乘大眾運輸工具，如果自己騎機車的話，除了加油錢，還常常要為了一位難求的停車位搶破頭，其實不見得更划算喔！
搭乘台北捷運，從市區到市區，單趟約20元起，而公車每段也只需要15元，各種班次、路線選擇也非常多，除此之外，台北市提供的Youbike服務，前30分鐘只需要5元，只要有技巧的運用就能節省一筆交通費呢！
另外，現在台北捷運也推出了雙北（台北、新北）捷運、公車30天吃到飽月票，每月的費用為1,280元，如果平常交通路程較遠，或是常常需要搭乘大眾運輸工具，無限次搭乘的月票也是非常好的選擇喔！
■生活用品：500 – 800元左右
剛搬到新城市的時候，有許多基本的生活用品如：沐浴乳、洗髮精、廁所衛生紙、垃圾袋等需要做一次大採買，難免會有大筆的開銷，但一次採買完畢之後，以後每個月就不會花到這麼多錢了。
另外，大多數的藥妝店都會有不定時買一送一、折扣等優惠活動，一些生活必需品可以趁著有優惠時先囤貨，也可找家裡的室友們一起合買喔。
■娛樂費：1,000 – 3,000元左右
娛樂費完全是看每個人的狀況。
以吃得來說，台式居酒屋熱炒店，最便宜的約一盤100元起跳，大家一起吃的話每人大約500元就可以吃得非常飽，而酒吧、餐酒館等餐廳，600-700元的預算也有很多不錯的選擇喔！
其他像是看電影、唱歌、藝文展覽或是出遊踏青，則是看個人的喜好去選擇參加的活動囉！
我們也會不定期為房客們舉辦各種小活動，讓大家可以不用花太多費用，就能認識新朋友、一起玩樂！

We are planning to equip the studio with several different instruments, such as an electric piano or a guitar. And since the studio has a projector as well, you can have a big screen movie night with your housemates!
All of the individual rooms are private, and some of themhave a balcony or a loft as well. And since the house’s facilities are verywell-equipped, you will have no problem dividing your private life from theshared life. There is nodoubt that you will have a comfortable life together with your housemates!
Plus, the house has convenient access to central Tokyo – you can reach Shinjuku by train in six minutes and Shibuya in 14 minutes. From one of the closest stations, KoenjiStation, you can use the JR Sobu and Chuo Line, and the Marunouchi Line from the other one, Shin-koenji Station. With convenient access to Shinjuku,Shibuya, Tokyoand Otemachi, this is the perfect location for those who have to commute to school or work.

Hi, this is BORDERLESS HOUSE in Osaka!
One of our tenants, Shinpei went to Seoul with House exchange program.
He said he is very interested in Korean cultures,
so he is thinking about going to Korea all the time.
Since he is Living in Osaka Toyonaka1 House with a Korean house Mate,
he is getting interested in Korean cultures.
So this time, he went to Korea, and Stay in Mapo2 House in Seoul
from 2nd of Dec to 8th of Dec.
<He is eating Samgepsal, Korean BBQ>
<In front of Sejongdeawang statue>
Here is the comments from him!
Q1. Why did you apply for the house exchange program?
I really wanted to go to Korea, and when I heard about this program,
I thought it will be much very to go there with this program
since I can experience more real Korean cultures than I go there with my friends or by myself.
Even though I wanted to go to Korea, I did not know about Korea well,
so I do not want to go there for only short travel.
I wanted to do Deep travel and to have rich Experience.
Especially, I can stay there for FREE, so why not? lol
Q2. How was your trip?
If I say it in a word, it is very similar between Korea and Japan.
I already told you, I am very interested in their life, and culture,
I kept attention to everything like their fashion,
atmosphere of the street, buildings, cars, CM, and so on!
It is just same as Japan.
And when I went to book store,
I was very surprised since the Japanese book was No. 1! Lol
At the same time, I found the different things; there are lots of cafes,
and they use credit card a lot Wi-Fi is everywhere in Korea!
Also, transportation fee like taxi or bus is very cheap compare to japan.
When I found like this, it was very interesting.
3. What is the most memorable episode?
I am not sure that this story is an episode or not,
but the thing is that I met my roommate, Han!
He brought me the club, pub, and restaurants, and we talked a lot!
He lived in Japan, so he already known about how to speak Japanese,
and Japanese cultures.
Especially, I was able to understand about the education,
and job hunting because of him.
4. Do you have any comments?
I can not say about my house exchange program without Han!
Since he was my roommate, I was able to enjoy this program I guess.
I mean I can not speak any Korean, but my roommate, Han speaks Japanese,
and we get along well.
So it is very important to match the share house and the house mates!
I really appreciate it since I had really good time, and great experiences there! Thank you !!!
What a great experience!
