Because Finland is more expensive in Food and Nightlife and I used more the phone that at home.
And less, because accomodation is not so expensive as in Buenos Aires and travelling is also expensive here.

Have to pay a fee to access home funds. Set up with your bank a person who can transfer funds from your home account to the one abroad as someone has to be present in the home bank to enable this to be possible

Personal spending habits
I go out more often than at home, and of course I take the opportunity of being abroad to travel around. Besides I had to buy a lot of stuff, like kitchen-gear and so on. I spent less on the accommodation, because this is just very expensive where I come from.

You don't have to buy books, just rent them to the library, it's free only if you give them back on time ;-).
