Personal spending habits
I spent more on telephone because I called my friends an family. I spent less on accommodation because it is cheaper to rent a flat in spain than in belgium. I spent more on nightlife because I went out more often than in belgium (but going out isn't more expensive). I spent less on traveling because it can be really cheap to travel in spain.

Personal comments
Cost-saving tips: at first when my roommates and I went shopping for food, we took the brands that we knew. But after a while we just took the cheapest ones, they taste the same. When you're looking for extra furniture you can look in the streets, that's what I did (I turned into a bum). In spain there are big containers in the streets where people get rid of their garbige. A lot of people also put old furniture in the streets, you can easily take them away (this way we got a salon-table, a desk, little wardrobe,...).
