Expenses
Main source of funding:
Family
Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Because I had to pay all my expenses, in my home country, my parents paid everything. Regarding the travels and nightlife, there were more opportunities to travel because the school organized many trips, and the nightclubs are a must to meet new people and enjoy all the Erasmus and Finnish students.

Personal comments
Well if you go out at night too much you can spend a lot of money, especially at the weekends. At Fridays and Saturdays you pay 7€ to get in a discotheque, plus 2€ for the jacket, and a beer is 5€.
