Nightlife in Singapore is very expensive. A regular drink costs about 10-20 SGD. Housing is very expensive as well because of the fact that i could not get accommodations on campus Travel is definitely cheaper. Taxi's are cheap, the MRTs are cheap, and airfare to other South-East Asian countries are cheap as well because it is a hub.

Food at those "Hawker Centres" and at the Canteens on Campus was pretty good and really cheap and i think this is common in Asia. Accomodation was much cheaper than in Milan but I think there were some agreements with the ubiversity. The phone bill was relly expensive.. I left my girlfriend back home and we wanted to talk every day..
