Sweden, in comparison to Canada, is a very expensive country. Clothes and food are very expensive. However, due to Malmo's location, I frequently went to Copenhagen and from that airport I traveled to Spain, Turkey, Germany, Holland, because European airlines frequently have great last minute deals. Prior to Sweden, I lived in Seoul, South Korea for almost two years, and the nightlife there is cheap and spectacular. In comparison to that, Malmo's nightlife is expensive (in most places a cover fee plus a coat fee is mandatory), and alcohol prices are outrageous. I didn't spend much on telephone, because I used mostly Skype.

Personal comments
Students who do not get the full 12 month visa/resident permit, must buy health insurance. I did in Canada, but if you ever need to go the doctor, make sure you bring enough cash with you or your credit card is in a healthy state, because as a non-Swedish patient, JUST the doctor's consultation would cost you around CAN$300, plus medication. I was later reimbursed by my insurance company, but still, that fee was a bit of a surprise.

Sweden is an expensive country if you compare it to Spain, and also it is Denmark, where we were going quite often due to its proximity to Malmö by train.
