Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM)

in Germany I live in a student residence, and it is very cheap

Because I was is a foreign country and had to take advantage of every opportunity!

Because i wanted to tased the Spanish culture in every way.

Food is much cheaper in Sapin and I do not cook complicated menus, so much of a saving was done. Since I diddn't have a fixed phone, I tried to use this way of communication the less I could, and not becomong addicted to a mobile phone. For accomodation, since in Belgium I still do live with my family, I do not have any expenses. For nightlife, this is a good way to spending nights after sutdying with new friends, and part of Madrid's charm is it's nightlife! I also did feeel more relaxed in Sapin, which meant I "allowed" myself to have some fun. For travel, I had to use this opportunity to discover little by little the country.

Food, and living is much cheaper in Madrid, but you do want to travel and visit a lot of things. It pretty much evens out!!

I spent more on on travel and nightlife because I travelled and went out more to immerse myself in the country and culture!
