I live with my parents so food and housing is free, telephone would be too costly because I still have my belgian number. And I travel more to see as much as possible before I go back.

Because everything is more expensive. Count an average +20%. Renting cars is OK in price (40/day), petrol is cheaper.

Most of it I spend more than at home, because at home I live with my parents. That means that I don't have to buy food and don't have to pay the rent.
