Personal comments
I have been learning English since primary school so I am very competent on English. Both in my home and host country the education language is English and everybody has enough English to communicate. Therefore, I had no problems in both countries. Moreover, I like to learn new languages so I always try to speak the language of the country I am in.

Personal spending habits
I noticed almost no difference between the Spanish food prices and the prices of the Dutch. About housing, I usually live in Barcelona which is quite expensive, so I paid almost the same in Delft. Finally, I spent more in Nightlife and travelling because I did much more of this than usually.

Personal comments
Dutch people, being bilingual are friendly to foreigners, and its fun trying to figure out what some Dutch people are saying as some words sound familiar and you can more or less make out a conversation even if they speak to you in Dutch (you reply in English)

Its easy to traver because we're in the center of Europe. Nevertheless it can be quite expensive. It's not easy to save money. Ask for help when need it. Use the student facilitie center and councelers. Go to exchange parties and to faculty cafes. Don't miss the dutch experience!
