Personal spending habits
I spend a lot of money on telephone, because my boyfriend was at the same time doing an internship in Bangkok and calling to Thailand was very expensive. Nightlife was more expensive for two reasons. One is that the drinks and entrances in Spain are higher than in my home country. The second reason is that I went out a lot more in Barcelona than I normally do in Holland. I spend more on travelling because I wanted to see some cities outside Barcelona and didn´t have a public transport card like I have in Holland.

Sorry, I cannot think of any. I can only tell that going out for dinner is in Barcelona really cheap and allmost as expensive as eating at home. So it´s recommendable to go out for your dinner.

I chose to travel l lot when I stayed in BCN, so a consequence of this was that my expenses relates to travel increased. I also used my mobil more than back home, which gave a further blow to my budget. And when in BCN, do as the locals and go out... so my expenses related to this increased as well.

If you're in BCN for a short time, stay with a family. That reduces you costs a lot, because you don't need to invest in linen and kitchenware etc.

Large Clubs are fairly expensive, around 15 euros and so are drinks. One can find small (i quote felipe) good clubs that are free. Drinks are great, one is shocked at first: 7,5 Euros. But its almost all alcohol, so 3-4 will get u nicely going. Buy three month metro ticket, but dont loose it. Be very carefull with ur money, loooooadds of pick pocketers and muggers.

Try to cook at home at times!- if you think it is boring invite some friends! Keep your eyes open for happy hours and free entrance flyers. Don't shop for clothes in Corte Ingles. Snacks can be very expensive as well. Watch out for sales.

Leaving in a city suh as Barcela is of course more expensive then at home. Housing is probably the main difference. I spend more due to the fact that I wished to enjoy a maximum. Everyday life is at a reasonable cost.

I found prices in general just a bit less than I was used to in Atlanta, GA. Accomodations are typically cheaper for a good location, but of course it is less space. go with the ofertas. The rest of Spain is much cheaper.

REVIEWS BY INTERNS AT ESADE Business School
Inolvidable
Enrolled into full-time migration program during 11 weeks, providing both legal and psycho-social guidance to ensure rights such as health and education as well as migratory regulation situation belonging to people in human mobility situation where guaranteed and protected. Interviewed victims of the venezuelan national conflict, gender violence victims and other vulnerable groups to identify needs and allocate the corresponding funds Cooperate as an Encuentros member with other local and international organizations such as OIM and Care Perú in the event planning of several fairs to provide first hand fast assistance and orientation to migrants and community leaders.
Learning Agreement
An Internship that consisted of a Learning Agreement between both my college and the law firm, and myself. I mainly learned to treat with customers and take care of clients. To learn how to read what the customer wants and interpret words and desires was really useful to become a great sale manager and an effective lawyer. I believe it is fundamental to know exactly what your client wants, be able to empathize with them, and with that informations advise and reach them with the best solution and best matches their expectations.
Challenging
I worked in many different engagements with several different managers. Hardest thing is managing your time and people
