VPS + Shared host question

As we know, hosting Laravel application on a shared host is almost impossible, becouse they don't give access to their server. My provider gives host and vps, too.

The "smallest" shared host there is: For 30EUR/year:

2000MB SSH space
500MB MySQL space (unlimited databases)
2500MB space for Mailserver (unlimited e-mail addresses)
25FTP connection
Domain name as gift.

The VPS (30EUR/year): 1 GBIT/S connection 1 vCORE CPU 5 GB SDD space 0 GB HDD space 1024 MB RAM 1 IPv4 address /56 IPv6 subaddress

My question: Can I use the space on the "shared host" for the uploaded media? For example when an user uploads a picture? I thinking about paying for the host, too, becouse I need a mail server, but the other components would be unused.

You can use any solution of cloud storages such as cdn or remote host (like you "shared host") of course. You must use the Storage facade with implements your logic. Read this for more information https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/filesystem
