Expenses

Main source of funding:

Family

Other sources of funding:

Family<br> Personal savings<br> An ERASMUS grant

Work opportunities:

I worked, but it was illegal/cash in hand work

Personal spending habits

I took so much care of my economy outside, I could not expect my parents make this big effort without having some consideration with them. The bigger amount was the accommodation. All travels were orginzed by a host-student group which made them really affordable. I didn't spend so much in nightlife, as I don't usually drink alcohol, I just wanted to be with my friends there, not spendind all my money just in a party.
