A lot more spent on food since we lived in a big appartment and had some dinners. Also, while sharing an appartment you tend to eat more and better (there is always somebody who feels like cooking). Eating out was also a little more expensive since in Uppsala you can eat cheap at the student nations. Wine (food? Yes, we're in France) and cheese were large spending accounts. Travel...Ireally think you should take the opportunity to see the country that you are in. I would happily spend even more if necessary on travelling.

Cost savings - share an appartment (but with french people if you want to learn French...). You get "Allocation familiale", sort of a housing allowance, from the french government if you are a citizen of the European community. LOTS of administrative work but worth while when you get the money :)

Well, the cost of life in the UK is much higher than in France, however there are much more opportunities to have apart time job in the UK than in France, which balances things up a bit.

Accomodation agencies will take a large fee, the French have not yet abandoned the bureaucracy structure in their administration, they are mad about "dossiers" (files) and each dossiers has apparently a cost attached to it. The social security coverage for international students is a joke, you may aswell take a course on bureacracy to get by and get your health pay for (70%) by the French Authorities.

Great food in france with less "to goes"which is popular in the US.More Good wines and fine dinning which is expensive. Not so many close friends in France as in the US thus less time on the phone and more time on the internet.Nightlife and Housing in Los Angeles is very expensive. Travel expense is more since there is so much more to see in europe and studying in the South of france i can travel to spain, italy and paris constantly..there is so much to see and do.

Apply for a debit card from the host country. Home country banks charge a lumpsum for transaction fee.

travel costs more to go from country to country (ie uk france) than it would if iwere traveling domestically in the uk (ie uni home). going out is a lot more expensive, but eating is similarly priced and alot cheaper in restaurants. Electricity is expensive but heating is not needed during summer so much, so it works out about the same.

cost saving tips - book travel home well in advance, low cost airlines have minimal "cheap seats" which go quickly

Food because it is a necessity of mine to eat. Telephone because I was making long distance calls of sorts. Accomodation because I was living in a house and not on campus. Nightlife because I was going out a lot to see what Marseille had to offer. Travel because the bus was my main mode of transport to and from university and into the city centre itself.
