Why? As a foreign student in Holland, it is always good to penetrate and feel the real Dutch life. I have confident that I can organize it by myself.
Personal comments:
The condition is not so bad, but the rental is rather high compared with current conditions in Holland.

Personal spending habits:
Food and housing is much more expensive than they're in China. I don't use a telephone in Holland, thus, I don't spend money on it. I like travelling, so I spend more or less same money on my hobbies. Nightlife is also same because I don't go so often.
Food, Housing: was more expensive than at home.
Travel, Nightlife, Overall: was the same price as at home.
Telephone: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
Usually, I brought my necessaries from cheapest supermarket, like AlDI, LIDL, so on. Also, if possible, to do some part-time job is a way to earn some money. Besides, I'm negotiating with my Dutch friends, because I hope we can run a company together and do business internationally.
