hi dear.
i think this salary is good. and you can pay for the accommodation and food easily. may be it can be increased by further qualification and experience.

I get about 31000 after tax. It's okay (my wife currently does not work). It depends where you live. If you want a nice 1 bedroom expect to pay between 700-1000, a 2 bedroom expect to pay 850-1100. If you have a new house utilities will be extremely low, probs like 40/month.

Food: It depends how much you eat out. We eat maybe 1-3 meals out, and the occassional pizza and kebab. We shop at the cheap grocery store and spend ~220 Euro a month for 2 people.
