Expenses
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
Government assistance
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
housing was not very exepensive compared to Paris. We were going out a lot, so Nightlife expenses are higher. Vienna is very well located to travel around central Europe.
