The night life here is very expensive!! At home I don't pay for food very often because of the meal plan, and the telephone is free within the same town. In Paris you pay to call your neighbor. Travel however is much cheaper.

Because the level of costs is much higher than at home - especially housing & most of the food are incredible expensive in Paris. You'll need at least 1300-1500 Euros to live there a nice and pleasant life!
