food is really cheap in Germany, specially in supermarkets such as lidl or penny markt. Housing is more expensive, but can also find cheap accomodation. Nightlife, beer 2.50 euro, just as in Mexico. cover 5 euro.
Travel, gets more expensive, because you travel more when being there. Overall is like being in Mexico City, based on my needs and habits.

In germany everything just works smoothly and fast. Except for the high cost and bad service from the Telekom, and some bureocracy in the University. Dresdner bank gave me the best service. Books over ebay just work fine. Besides, you dont need to buy books at all, except 2 or 3 books for law. Dont be a nerd!
