Personal spending habits:
As for food, telephone, accomodation and nightlife Norway is very expensive ... as is Switzerland when it comes to travelling, The only option to get around is by plane or car options that I actually used intensely, and all in all the two major airlines have quite cheap student fares ... thus use the chance. as for trips around Trondheim, sharing a rental car can be cheaper as four bus tickets. The same applies for cabs: as soon as you are four or more, forget the city transport (it sucks anyway) and call a cab.
Travel: was more expensive than at home.
Food, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone: was the same price as at home.
Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
To buy second hand stuff is not really necessary, as there is a REMA 1000 supermarket next door where you find all you need for good prices.
