    Kingston upon Hull in the UK (usually called ‘Hull’) is one of the poorest cities in England, so it is hardly surprising that it is cheap. It’s the sort of place that if going on a date, one avoids at all costs.

    The meal for two in Budapest must be priced on a Burger King or Mc Donalds, because otherwise there is no way to fit in all the other stuff into an outlay of 61 euros. Or perhaps the meal for 2 comprised 2 lángos at a market somewhere.
