Tech salaries in continental Europe are significantly lower than in the US or UK. Even the most highly developed economies like Germany and Denmark often provide 50% of what you might make in CA or NY for a similar role.

But not 50% of what you might make in London and that's what this is about.

And the EUR goes a lot farther in say Berlin than the GBP goes in London these days (see rent, eating out prices etc)
