The exchange rate was not advantageous for me so no matter how cheap an item was, it was still more expensive when considering the exchange rate. The best advice I got is don't think about the rate and enjoy yourself. This is a once and a life time opportunity.

Seperate your debit cards and don't carry all your cards in your wallet. Should something happen, you won't have anything as a backup source and you will be out of the loop until your parents send you new cards. Trust me, I learned my lesson the hard way!

Dublin is a fantastic city, but it is certainly expensive. I travelled more in (and out of) Dublin than I would at home, so naturally I spent more. Overall, everything was more expensive except perhaps food prices at grocery stores.

I opened a bank account in Dublin, which made saving and spending easier. The cost of ATM withdrawals with my American debit card necessitated taking out large sums of money at a time. I would then deposit this money into my irish account.

I never missed a single chance to go out or to travel. Plus I had a part-time job (this is not easy to find back home)so I could actually spend a little bit more...I had more spare time,less to study as an Erasmus as well!!! Life is a little bit more expensive ...glaring exception, obviously, bier!!!

Yes, it's very easy to open a bank account even for a short term and as a student you have good choices.

Everything was more expensive but that was to be expected. Wages were much higher than at home so I was earing about twice what I usually would, which offset the costs.
