Personal spending habits
I had spent ( still spending) more on travel because according to me travelling is the best way to know the world you are living in. Things are different, you see them with your own eyes, own perspectives. You meet every kind of people, good and not so good...all help in better understanding of our society.

Travel:
was more expensive than at home.
Food, Overall, Housing, Nightlife, Telephone:
was the same price as at home.
Accessibility of student needs
Second-hand household items
Personal comments
One can save money by getting Student Passes instead of getting the regular tickets for buses. Even in accomodations students can save a bit by sharing the expences with other students.

All the documents should be properly filed and updated. I would suggest the future students to reserve their accomodation before leaving their home countries. If you want to get a real international student experience then you should not have any prejudices.
Best of Luck

“Descubriendo el mundo a través de la economía social y solidaria”
Mérigot C
France,
Social Work, 2022
Overall
La reanudación de mis estudios fue un descubrimiento increíble de la economía en su realidad. Una gran apertura a la conciencia de lo que está pasando en el mundo y sobre todo de las causas.
Este profundo conocimiento de la economía me llevó a querer modificarla desde dentro, para cambiar las cosas y hacer de este mundo económico un mundo más humano.
Es cambiando el modelo de negocio y teniendo en cuenta a los trabajadores que la economía estará en la mejor forma y será confiable a lo largo del tiempo.

Careers
La universidad me permitió tener herramientas sólidas para poner en marcha mi proyecto empresarial social y solidario.
Mi proyecto consiste en crear un taller de escultura en piedra en el norte de Cataluña. Este taller estaba destinado a personas con dificultades sociales o profesionales.
No quería que esta actividad se gestionara en un marco asociativo sino en una empresa real.
Gracias al título universitario, mi proyecto ahora se realiza, creando esperanza para las personas en dificultad.
