Final comments
you should know that Switzerland os not that expensive country if you know where to buy food, clothes get them from home, nevertheless if you can buy Bally :) transport, well if you're coming in Summer (lovely summer in Suisse) you need just Bike, well first you'll save money and stretch you ass! if you stay long term buy 1/2ticket+Gleis7, that would be very good, since you arrive to Swissland, keep around 250.-sfr for that for the whole year. don't dare to forget your sleeping bag, you'll need it. before coming to Suisse don't eat Pasta and cheese for at least on year! you'll be exiosted trying all of those different kind of them. about FREASH meat get ready to be vegetairian! it's toooo expensive (no problems if you eat God knows those sausages or Chineese bombed chickens:) ), don't hesitate if Swiss family invite you, stop stop you think they we'll cook meat Heheheheee, you'll get Fandue, what's that! it's surprise :)

Family
Other sources of funding:
none
Work opportunities:
I worked during my study abroad experience
Personal spending habits
Live in Ukraine and the Live standard is lower than in Switzerland, so the expenses are less than in Home University, about nightlife, it was almost the same costs (we go to cheap night spots), traveling seems to be more expensive in Switzerland, but since I came here I bought special card (includes half price ticket and traveling for free after 19h)and biking to university in the morning, I did save alot, more than I accepted.
