Food, the food here is much cheaper. I have spent more because I have been eating out a lot. For everyday food we have the school canteen which is very cheap. No need to cook!
Telephone and nightlife is expensive here.
I have spent a lot on travelling because I wanted to take the opportunity to see the region.
