Nightlife: Although you learn a lot from an Erasmus trip, it's also Party Time! The drinks in Estonia are cheap, but as we went so often in the end it became quite expensive. Food is not so expensive if you stick to local products and going out for dinner is bill-wise lots of fun! Clothes and luxury products are quite expensive and is better to buy in Russia if you have the opportunity to go there.

My univerisity provided my books. What suprised me negatively was the brokers fee for my appartment of 600 euros... better try to find an apartment from another international student whose house you can take over!

in general the life in Estonia is still a bit cheaper than in Austria. The reason why I am spending more money for housing here than at home is that I am living in a student residence at home and here I have my own flat near Old Town and the university.

do not think that shopping is so cheap hear, that's not true! The well known brands sell their clothes for the same price as in other countries and there are no low budget fashion shops (like H&M)

Personal spending habits
Food, telephone (mobile) and housing were much cheaper. I spent more on nightlife because I went out 4 or 5 times a week, and generally drank more beer (albeit at a cheaper price). I did much more domestic and international travel (a short bus ride as opposed to a long plane ride from Australia).

Eating out is sometimes cheaper than cooking. Also, as beer is significantly cheaper, you may be tempted to drink more!

Be careful to spend money in Helsinki, because the exchange rate is pretty disadvantegeous.
