交換生如何在海外生存?

字號:


    Open an overseas bank account
    開一個海外銀行賬戶
    Getting yourself a bank account in your new home country is an absolute must, as it will save you money when withdrawing euros.
    在本國先申請一個海外銀行賬戶是必備的,在兌換歐元的時候就能為您節(jié)約錢。
    Ask people in your host country to recommend a bank and set up an international bank transfer with your bank before you go – this will make the withdrawal process easier and cheaper.
    在本國先讓別人給你推薦一種銀行卡,然后在出發(fā)之前開通全球轉賬功能——這樣取錢的過程會變得更容易更便宜。
    Opening an account also meant I could receive the French housing benefit CAF, which provides big rent reductions for students.
    開通一個賬戶同時也意味著我能接受法國住房優(yōu)惠CAF,為學生提供了租金減免。
    Buy a local SIM card
    買一張當?shù)氐腟IM卡
    Having a phone that’s not working, or being charged ridiculous amounts for data roaming, can be a networking nightmare.
    拿著手機卻不能用,或者收取昂貴的漫游費,對于網(wǎng)絡使用者來說是個噩夢。
    The solution? Buy a SIM card from a trusted phone company in your host country and ensure you can cancel it easily and at short notice. You should cancel your phone bill one to two weeks before leaving your host country.
    有解決辦法嗎?在本國買一張SIM卡,最好是能很容易注銷的類型。在離國前兩周就應該把卡停掉,取消電話賬單。
    Smart food shopping
    聰明的購物方式
    Depending where you are, food shopping can be more expensive overseas than it is in the UK, but check out local markets for cheaper fresh produce.
    取決于你去的地方,食品采購在國外可能會很貴,但是別忘了去當?shù)氐氖袌隼镎艺冶阋说男迈r產(chǎn)品。
    For anything else, the bigger the supermarket, the better – you’ll find countless deals on products that you can store. I’d also budget an amount for each week for food – and try to cook in bulk where possible..
    買其他的東西,越大的超市越好,你可以找到數(shù)不清的可以貯存的商品。最好每個星期存一點食物,條件允許的情況下可以自己做。
    Be sure to make the most of local treats. For me, French bread and pastries were both cheap and delicious.
    充分利用當?shù)氐牟牧稀ξ襾碚f,法國面包和小糕點便宜又可口。
    Savvy socialising
    了解社會生活
    An important part of the student experience is going out. If you’re going to a club or bar, I recommend buying alcohol in the supermarket and pre-drinking like you’re back in first year.
    學生經(jīng)驗最重要的一個部分是走出去看外面的世界。如果你去俱樂部或者酒吧,我推薦你在超市買好酒。
    Thrifty travel
    窮游
    When you’re out and about in the daytime, look for your local travel office and buy a pass each month for trams, buses and other public transport.
    當你平時可以出去走走的時候,咨詢當?shù)氐穆眯猩邕€可以每個月買公交或者其他交通工具的月票。
    If you want to cycle, look on Facebook groups for a second-hand bike or go to the travel office for a yearly pass on intercity bicycle rentals. I rented a bike, but ended up walking everywhere because of my convenient location.
    如果你想自己騎自行車環(huán)游,從facebook群組中找二手自行車或者到旅游社租一年城市間的自行車短租。我租過一次,但是因為位置很方便所有都是走路。
