I think it's good to open an account in england -it takes an effort, but then you can have a cash card and it will save you a lot of money (withdrawing cash from your home country is very expensive)

Personal comments
convenient food is cheaper than cooking for yourself but unhealthy on the long run. try to cook in a large group together so you can save money. vegetables and fruits are very expensive not to mention eating out.

Personal comments
My room was really small and not very friendly. Fortunately I had my own bathroom and I only had to share the kitchen with my 5 neighbours. But consequently the kitchen became a place of social meetings.
