Cost saving tip: if you do the groceries, go to Willy's, sometimes it can save you the half of your expenses in groceries!

Very expensive housing cost. No cost-saving tips unless you find your own room, but it is difficult if you don't know Swedish.

The food in Sweden is more expansive than in Germany. But in a restaurant at lunchtime you can eat cheaper than at home, I know that is confusing, but I don´t know the reason. The Nightlife was more expansive, because nearly every night I was on tour so more often than at home. Travelling was also more expansive than at home, because I did so much travelling to see and visit Sweden. Why going where and don´t get to know the country?

Food is a bit more expensive than switzerland, meeting new people is probably the most important stimulus for traveling and enjoying night life.

The main reason for spending more in Sweden than in England was due to the price differences. The cost of living was significantly higher than at home. Together with the fact that I took opportunity to travel around sweden whilst being thus spending more on travel expenses.
