You can manage but don't expect too much comfort and luxuries.

Could you also help, what is an average salary for a financial administrator / accountant with a few yrs off experience?

thank you

szics, depends where you coming from... Cyprus using UK standards in Accounting... if you have a few years of experience you could be getting somewhere near 1000Euros a month.

thanks. i am from hungary, experiences are okay, but I thought an accountant can get about 1500-1800. (with university degree, and 1-3 yrs experience (i have more just this is required))

szics, regardless of your degree... the maximum you will get (if you lucky) is 1000 eur a month.
IN Cyprus your qualification will not count unless you pass a a series of courses and get relevant local certificates. I know many people working as accountants and they don't get more than 600-700 CYP a month... Even if you have MBA from UK, your chances of getting more than 1200 Eur a month are slim. It will take you few years of hard and dedicated work and series of promotions to get somewhere to 1800 Eur.

Pfiuu....
Now I really do no what to do....

You could do what most other people do to earn more money - get a job in a bar in the evenings, then you will get to meet lots of people at the same time.
