Expenses
Main source of funding:
Government assistance
Other sources of funding:
Family
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Because Italy is as expensive as Sweden and sometimes even worse. Our loan from the government were smaller thou Italy was still consider a low-cost country. Plus that I spent far more time and money on social life activities!!
