Barcelona is the more expensive town in Spain. So all the costs are over the mean level from Spain.

Personal spending habits
I spend more money abroad than at home because you are travelling a lot which costs a lot of money. The rents in Barcelona are a lot higher than in a suburb in Germany where I live. You have to spend more money in having a telephone contract because if you are staying less than 2 years you have to pay more.

Maria M
University of Exeter, Exeter, United Kingdom
Translation/Interpretation, Undergraduate, Erasmus
Expenses
Main source of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Other sources of funding:
Government assistance
Work opportunities:
I worked, but it was illegal/cash in hand work
Personal spending habits
I spent a lot trying to keep in touch with friends and family. otherwise the cost of living in spain is drastically less. Perhaps the only thing that was more expensive is the food and drink sector, ie when out for dinner or out for drinks it can add up perhaps a lot more in spain than in the uk, especially as primarily in the UK we would frequent student bars. i havent found any here!
