Personal spending habits
The main reason is that the price level is higher in The Netherlands than in Spain. But also, I had more expenses. I pay no accomodation and very little food at home. And abroad I exploited the chance of travelling around. At home I do not travel around that much given that I already know the environs.

Corporate language of Universiteit Maastricht is English. No problem to communicate with Dutch university staff or with locals in general. Every Dutch seems to speak English perfectly.
