can someone help me answering my question ?
Heaps of Ukrainians - can be a good or bad thing depending who you are
4 euros for 10 eggs - what is going on there?
The issue now as of September 2022 is like what we are seeing in Budapest and Prague too, low supply of rental units caused by a lack of building. Takes a while to get a building permit apparently.
The office building complex down the street from me about 500meters took 23 years from start to finish to build and changed contractor twice during the process.
