Open an accout as soon as you arrive to avoid transfer charges from home. Bring money from home in cash or traveler's cheques as this also avoids charges. Always ask about possible charges, there are much more banking charges there than here.

I wasn't careful with the exchange rate and I was always out doing things. If I stayed in then I would've saved more money.

I wish the phone plan was to buy credit as time went on rather than a set bill. I spent way too much because of that.

Because I had more free time, it´s very usual to eat in Tapasbars or restaurants instead of cooking, all the people spend lots of time at the street instead of at home

I probably would have ended up spending less than i do at home had it not been for the fact that i was travelling and going out at night much much more than i do at home.
