Paying €15 to open a bank account because I haven't received yet the Spanish identity card (even if I'm European!!)! The card itself will cost me another €5 when I get it, or I should say if I get it, after nearly 4 months of waiting!!!

Personal comments
use citibank and open an account at home. then you can withdraw money without being charged. Also, i really regret moving out of a nice apartment with 7 spaniards for a smaller less lavish apartment with various europeans because of costs.. make your living arrangements fit your goals, Ie. .to learn spanish, etc. then worry about the money afterwards..

I spent more on telephone because I was calling the US often, I spent more on accomodation because the price of the accommodation through IES was more than it is here and I spent more on travel because I had more opportunities and I had planned and saved in order to travel.
