Personal spending habits
Housing is about 50% more expensive in Italy than in Greece, food also (even though i was eating more--maybe because of the cultural shock or the extreme cold). Nightlife in Italy is normal for european standards. It is just Greece that has the most expensive one. Travelling inside Italy was a piece of cake. Cheap trains and buses unlike Greece :(
