Personal spending habits
I spend more money abroad than at home because you are travelling a lot which costs a lot of money. The rents in Barcelona are a lot higher than in a suburb in Germany where I live. You have to spend more money in having a telephone contract because if you are staying less than 2 years you have to pay more.
