Be careful with bribing and people trying to charge you more because you are a foreigner. Always ask a local when you need to go to the police. They like making you pay more than necessary.

Nightlife if very cheap. Even when they ask more than what they offer it in the catalogue. But take it easy! In that way u spend more than u would in your country and u don't understand it.

The culture of Slovakia is different than the portuguese culture. I spent maybe more than on my country because i was trabelling a lot and the eramus environment demanded from me a extra budget for some activities.

On the first days, be carefull, mainly on nightlife because people will charge you more than the correct if they see that you are a foreigner. Don't go shopping in Bratislava beacuse is not so cheap as you can think. If you know the right restaurants, you can eat out paying a very cheap prices

Prices are lower than in France but just because this is less expensive, I took advantage of that to travel a lot (to Poland, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic and Slovakia of course) and to go aout almost every night, which I don't do in France.
