As a digital nomad, budgeting for travel is crucial to sustaining a nomadic lifestyle. One of the most popular destinations for digital nomads is Italy, with its rich culture, delicious cuisine, and stunning landscapes. But just how much does it cost to spend a month in Italy as a digital nomad?
While travel expenses can vary greatly depending on individual preferences and lifestyle choices, I will provide a breakdown of my personal expenses during a month-long stay in Italy.
Accommodation:
I opted for a mix of budget-friendly hostels and Airbnb rentals during my time in Italy. On average, I spent around $50 per night on accommodation, totaling to approximately $1500 for the month.
Food:
Italy is known for its incredible food, and I definitely indulged during my stay. I budgeted around $30 per day for meals, including dining out and grocery shopping. This amounted to approximately $900 for the month.
Transportation:
I relied heavily on public transportation, such as trains and buses, to get around Italy. I also rented a car for a few days to explore more remote areas. In total, I spent around $400 on transportation for the month.
Activities:
Exploring Italy’s famous landmarks and attractions was a priority for me, so I budgeted around $300 for entrance fees and guided tours.
Miscellaneous:
Additional expenses, such as SIM cards, laundry, and other miscellaneous items, totaled to around $200 for the month.
In total, my expenses for one month in Italy as a digital nomad came to approximately $4200. Keep in mind that this is a rough estimate and can vary depending on individual preferences and spending habits.
Of course, there are plenty of ways to lower these costs, such as staying in budget accommodations, cooking your own meals, and prioritizing free or low-cost activities.
Overall, Italy can be a reasonably affordable destination for digital nomads, especially if you budget wisely and prioritize your spending. With its stunning scenery, delicious food, and rich history, it’s definitely a destination worth exploring for digital nomads.

Hello from New Zealand. My wife and I are looking to see how we can spend 6 months in Europe, and work. I can work anywhere with my job. A major downfall of wanting to do this from New Zealand is the terrible exchange rate iwth Euro and the cost of flights to get there. We really enjoyed this video and the one you did on house siting with pets. Fantastic content, thanks so much
