Food here is generally cheaper and I often cook for myself in place of eating out. My phone bills have been larger due to keeping in touch with friends and family from England. Housing, even in the centre of Toulouse, is considerably cheaper than housing in Birmingham. As for nightlife, drinking isn't such an integral part of student life here so going out often involves just a couple of drinks or going to concerts and cafés. I have always enjoyed travel so even in England I made the effort to save money for trips every so often. I have done the same since being here, taking trips to Aix En Provence, Paris and The Pyrennese.

I was surprised at the cost of phone calls with France Telecom. I later found out from french friends that it is notoriously expensive so it is probably better to make international calls with phone cards. It is always worth taking trips to the out of town supermarkets if possible, they are cheaper and much larger than the ones in the town centre (Carrefour and Géant ware my favourites). Laundrettes are surprisingly expensive here but if you don't have a washing machine there is no way of getting around it! I would advise to always shop around with everything, prices for all goods and services differ alot so take time to look around.

Things here quiet expensive! The only thing that saved me alot of money was Toulouse By night passport that saved me alot of money! For 15 euros invested you have pleanty of free drinks and other fun activities! I think we should have a Toulouse by Night at home too! It was a money saver for a student living a student life!

Food is expensive but if you like to go out! Buy a Toulouse by Night passport and you will see that you will not regret! Pleanty of free drinks even has free internet and other activities! In my contry I always get water with my meal but with Toulouse by night the restaurants always had a free glass of wine or something good! Check it out! I know you can buy it at Tabac Place St Pierre and Press Du Mirail and other places but check around and ask for it because it is really great! Can you imagine paying only 15 euros and getting 400 euros worth on freebies!

Food in France comes in smaller quantities, so I was constantly buying groceries, I made lengthy longdistance calls to the US, I traveled alot which I never do in the states, but the rent is cheaper in Toulouse than it is in the US. I also went out alot more in France, so that cost me, but going out in the states is usually more expensive, so that equalled out.

If you plan on traveling to other countries, get a Eurorail Pass. It'll save you a ton of cash for trains. The cheap hotels were often about the same price as the hostels, and hotels gave you more privacy and security. Try to get your produce at the open air markets--it's much fresher and cheaper.
