Personal spending habits
The living standard here in Sweden is a little more expensive than in the Netherlands. So that is why I have to spend more on good, but the difference is not considerable.
I have as many friends as in the Netherlands, so the telephone cost is actually the same. However, I spend more time on nightlife here because it requires me to do so since most of my new friends enjoy very much nightlife.
I spend the same on traveling. Although it have traveled less here, compare to when I was the Netherlands, due to the fact that the living standard here is higher, so I have to pay almost the same for traveling less.

I recommend you to visit all the nordic countries. Maybe the best way is renting a car, cause you can plan everything better.
don´t forget you winter coats!!

Personal comments
The language is pretty similar to German and Dutch. So if I had taken the learning this local language (swedish), it would not have been a problem.
Concerning communication experience, problems came mostly in the beginning, but everything seems to be back to normal gradually. I have a countless number of friends here.
I am having a good time here.

The university itself dosent offer any accomodation, but forwards us to student accomodations in the city. They are very close to the University (walkable distance). The atmosphere is lively and stimulating. Good environment for studies and cultural activities.
