the telephone was mainly because I always called my family, and the nightlife I didn't have much time to enjoy then finally travel was because I was visitng my family more often than before.

financial surprise will be the telephone it's amazing how much a phone call can cost. and cost saving-tip will be to get an apartment with a kitchen you save a lot when you actually cook then to buy it already done.

Housing is expensive, telephone is because you have to get a prepaid card and call prices are just appaling. Food is cheap at the grocery store, didn't go out to eat one single time. Travel by train is ridiculously expensive within France. And going out in Paris is painful, it is not at all uncommon to pay 8 € for a pint and 10-15 € for a cocktail...Funny because at the grocery store the cheapest sixpack is 2.13 €....

YES, the books I had to buy for school...320 € for books that are too heavy to carry back home...There goes 80 percent of my Erasmus grant!! I was also surprised that I had to go to an internet café any time I wanted to use the internet or print...The school's computer facilities are a joke.

i am from asia. if i cook food at home i surprisingly recognze that food is much cheaper than food at shop. Notice that buy ingredients from Marche or asian/ur regional shops. moreover, things are relatively cheap in some shop like ED, LDL, Monoprix, Franprix etc.
