It's hard at the beginning, finding your own place and stuff. But don't worry, then those moments are the one you'll laugh about soon.
Of course, "www.loquo.com": great website to search for apartments in Spain.

Expenses
Main source of funding:
Government assistance
Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits
Food is cheaper but you eat out more, hence I spent more or less the same on food.I did'nt have a phone at home, hence lower telephone costs. My rent was cheaper than in Sweden. Nightlife is a lot cheaper than in Sweden but you go out more, spend more time out of the house, than in Sweden, hence I spent more or less the same. I travelled more than I do in Sweden, hence put more moeny on travel.

Personal spending habits
I spend less in food here for the food is cheaper, I spend more in telephone for I use my mobil a lot more and I dont have to pay accommodation in my home country. The travel factor is about the same, eventhough I travel less in Iceland and the nightlife is also more or less the same. So over all its the same, for I save alot in some factors but then spend more in others.

The university is all right. My faculty is really small and personal so easy to interact with other students.One disadvantage is that if you live in the center of barcelona it is an hour travelling.

I did not live on the campus, Heard good stories about it but still i prefered to live in the city. It is easy to find a room there by using the internet. I advise to do a language course at the university . This is where i met lots of different people.

Try to go before september to find a place to live, you'll find the better places and use couchsurfing in the first days without a place to save some money

Barcelona(Girona) airport has many routes to another contries by Ryanair, even to Morocco! ESN will also arrange many trips for Erasmus. You'll have the best time of your life in Barcelona, you don't need to know much things now, it's funnier to learn it there
