Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
It is more convenient and cost efficient than having to travel by bus and tram to get to the University. There would also be more of a sense of University life if one lives on campus.

Personal spending habits
I spent more in food because it's more expensive in switzerland than in spain. Telephone was cheaper. In spain I live with my family so I don't spend anything in housing. Nightlife is more expensive in switzerland. And I travelled more in switzerland than I usually do in spain.

Accessibility of student needs
Second-hand household items
Personal comments
The best is to ask other students where they usually go out at nights to save some money. The chepest supermarkets are the migros ones. They even have a really cheap mobile phone company.
