We did not have any financial surprises, because before going to Denmark we spoke with students who spent there 6 months, and they explained us everything.

Personal comments
Using English does not pose a problem to me at all since this is the language that I use in my home university. However, with the European students who are more familiar with their own native languages obviously, an effort must be made on my part to try to understand the message that they are bringing across. Thus, for a preject meeting to end well, I have to take the initiative to start the ball rolling and give constructive ideas during the meeting. But it is important to know that they often have great ideas as well, but they just need a little more time to express themselves using English. However, the Danes have an exceptionally good standard of English relative to other Europeans, thus, communication with the adminstration poses no problem at all.

The cost of living in the Northic countries is much higher than in Portugal. I also spend on travelling because I wanted to get to know the near by countries and some of the main cities in Denmark.
