Personal spending habits
Housing, mainly utilities, was more expensive than at home. Travel and transportation was VERY expensive. Again the school is very isolated and at @ $6 a day for the bus it quickly adds up. Nighlife wise the average pint of beer in Japan is $5 but the transportation home is very expensive (taxi is $20 for 2 miles)
