Personal comments
Paying €15 to open a bank account because I haven't received yet the Spanish identity card (even if I'm European!!)! The card itself will cost me another €5 when I get it, or I should say if I get it, after nearly 4 months of waiting!!!

Course recommendations
It's a good idea to visit classes if you can before you decide what to take. The most important aspect is the professor. There are great teachers if you look for them but there are also some that aren't so good or enthusiastic and are not very helpful to international students who may struggle a bit with the language.
