An ERASMUS grant
Other sources of funding:

Work opportunities:

Personal spending habits
I had spent ( still spending) more on travel because according to me travelling is the best way to know the world you are living in. Things are different, you see them with your own eyes, own perspectives. You meet every kind of people, good and not so good...all help in better understanding of our society.

Personal comments
One can save money by getting Student Passes instead of getting the regular tickets for buses. Even in accomodations students can save a bit by sharing the expences with other students.

Final comments
All the documents should be properly filed and updated. I would suggest the future students to reserve their accomodation before leaving their home countries. If you want to get a real international student experience then you should not have any prejudices.
Best of Luck
