Personal spending habits
My accomodation and Food was paid for by the leaving student at Leeds. I sent a fourtune on Phone calls, long distance is a joke and so were calls home- you have to shop around for a calling card.
I travelled a lot more than I would do at home so I spent a heap more but it was well worth it.

Personal comments
I was lucky to have my major costs covered by the exchange student. As Huntingdon is out of the way and there is no public transport except for the train getting about was difficult. The train is expensive and takes a long time. Flying is big time expensive as State College is so small.
If I was here for anylonger I might have looked at buying a car as gas is so cheap. Shop around for a phone card, many have cheap minute rates but high connection fees.
