List of things you need to bring to study in Spain

Types of documents

1. Passport (the most important thing when boarding a plane, I'd better leave my ID card at home, but it won't work after going abroad)

2. Letter of admission to a language school or university (it is still useful in case the police check my identity)

3. Bank card (bring a card that can be used internationally, such as Master and Visa). I brought an ordinary UnionPay card, but I never got a chance to swipe it sadly)

4. international student identity card or Youth Card (if you have the chance, you can get it in China, and you can enjoy a series of discounts such as train tickets, park tickets and museum tickets in Europe. You can also do it in Spain in case it is too late)

6. Notarization and certification of transcripts (information for applying for undergraduate and graduate students)

7. Letter of recommendation (information for applying for graduate students)

Basic clothing

. There is a Spanish proverb, which means that you can't take off your coat completely until May, and it will reach MINUS 11 degrees in the coldest time. Thick coats such as down jackets are still needed.

2. There are no clothes and shoes that are particularly cheap in Spain. So far, there is no clothing market that can be bargained as in China, but there are few that are particularly expensive. There are two kinds of places where young people (including China students) buy: one is the specialty store on the commercial street, and the most popular one is Swedish H& M. Brands of Inditex Company of Spain (Zara, Pull &; Bear, Bershka, Sprinfield and Oysho are young people's brands. Massimo Dutti is a luxury in China, but here it is cost-effective. The style is a little formal and the quality is excellent. It is recommended to buy it. A pair of jeans is about 19-29 euros, a short-sleeved shirt is about 5-13 euros in summer, a dress is changed to 15-31 euros, and shoes are generally about 15-41 euros. The other is a store on the street, but sometimes things in the store are more expensive than those in the specialty store.

3. There are two discount seasons here every year, January and February, and July and August. Be sure to go shopping. It is very cost-effective. Unlike some shopping malls in China, which raise prices first and then discount, the discount here is still relatively real. There is no such store after this village.

List:

1. Bring at least one thick coat, down jacket or thick cotton coat, which is more expensive here.

2. Bras usually start with B cups, and some start with C cups. The price is not cheap, so it is recommended to buy them in MM.

3. The style of underwear is similar to that of domestic girl brand 68 (I'm not advertising). The quality is good and the workmanship is good, but there are several European pairs, and some sizes are relatively large. It is recommended that MM buy them in China. If you want to buy cheap, old-fashioned but comfortable suggestions, go to Carrefour and buy a dozen.

4. If you H& socks, you can go to H&; M buy a dozen, the difference is not big. Stockings, leggings, pantyhose and the like are generally around 11 euros here, and may be around 5 euros if discounted, and around 2 or 3 euros if Carrefour. I suggest MM buy a few in China.

5. scarves, gloves and other accessories are still relatively expensive here, about 11 euros, and of course the quality is good. students who care about the price suggest bringing one set from China.

6. one evening dress or cocktail dress for formal occasions such as graduation ceremony and wedding of foreign friends in the future. It is recommended to match it with handbags and accessories. Evening dresses here usually start at 51 euros, and there are many more than 111 euros. MM, who is confident in her figure, suggests bringing out cheongsam, which foreign friends will prefer.

7. At least one pair of casual shoes. Many roads in Europe are paved with pebbles, with slightly uneven heights and many hillsides. You must take one or two to walk.

8. For slippers, there are several Euros here, or a pair of more than ten Euros. Anyway, they don't take up much space. If possible, bring a pair out.

9. it depends on the person if you are bedding. My suggestion is to bring a set of bedding, such as sheets, quilts and pillowcases. However, if you buy it in an ordinary home store in Spain, it may be about 31 euros, and the difference is not very big. As for the quilt core, you can buy it at Carrefour or a home store, usually 15 euros to 21 euros. If you rent a room in the future, some kind landlords will provide quilts. Recommend Revitex, a cost-effective household goods store, which I have been to, and there must be many other stores.

Hygienic products and cosmetics

Tips:

1. Hygienic products can generally be purchased in supermarkets, such as Carrefour and Mercadona (two large-scale supermarkets), Dia, Arbol and Eroski (small supermarkets, but all things are complete), and there are international brands, such as Head & Shoulders, Pan Ting, L 'Oré al, Ponzi and Yulan. Schwartz here is much cheaper than in China, which is the price in Pan Ting. I suggest buying it.

2. Lancome, Estee Lauder, Clinique, L 'Oreal and other European and American brands can be seen everywhere, and some places in Shiseido in Japan can be purchased, but Korean brands are not seen at present. But most of them may go to France (the country of origin of many brands) to buy cheaper, and the price in Spain is between France and China. Spain also has some independent brands, the price is relatively close to the people, generally a few euros a bottle. However, it should be noted that there are not many whitening products here, and it is too late for Europeans and Americans to get a tan. Different countries have different aesthetic concepts. It is recommended to bring whitening products if you want white skin. In addition, there are not many masks, which are relatively expensive. It is recommended to bring some out.

list:

1. The price of sanitary napkins is similar to that in China. It is recommended to buy them in Dia supermarket, which is cheap and easy to use, but the extra-long ones are rare. con alas means with wings, and sin alas means without wings.

2. Students who are nearsighted can wear glasses (please bring eye cloth) and contact lenses in China, and bring their own contact lens potion (here, a bottle of more than ten euros). In addition, it is recommended to bring sunglasses out, because the sunshine in Europe is too bright, but if you are willing to buy international brands, you should come out and buy them. The discount for Ray-ban and Vogue is about 51 euros.

3. Washing powder, washing liquid and washing blocks are generally used for washing clothes here, and it is difficult to find traces of common soaps such as transparent soap and whitening soap. Students with special needs suggest taking them out.

Electronic equipment

Tips: Generally speaking, electrical appliances in Spain are bulky and expensive, and the brands are all from Japan and South Korea, so it is not recommended to buy electrical appliances in Spain.

list:

1. Mobile phone (you can use it by changing the card of a communication company when you arrive in Spain, and the price is about 11 euros)

Several big communication companies in Spain are Vodafone (more expensive, but I heard the call quality is good), Movistar and Yoigo (cheaper), and Thephonehouse store has their services. There are two ways to pay by mobile phone: prepayment and contract. Prepayment is how much to recharge, and the phone bill is relatively expensive. The call is about 1.2 Euro/minute, which varies from company to company. The contract system is to pay a fixed phone bill every month, and you can make phone calls and surf the Internet for a certain period of time. The communication company will provide new mobile phones for use (but they need to be returned when the contract expires), but the applicant is required to stay in Spain for at least 18 months.

2. Notebook computers (many domestic brands, new models and slightly cheaper prices)

It is recommended to bring operating system disks and antivirus software. The software here is genuine, and each disc is 11 euros or 21 euros.

3. MP3/MP4

can be carried according to your own needs.

3. Hair dryer and hair straightener/curling iron

Girls can carry them according to their own needs.

4. Spanish electronic dictionary

can be carried according to your own needs, which is convenient for you personally.

5. Plug converter

Spain is a double round hole socket, so domestic appliances cannot be directly plugged into the socket. However, you can buy them in Spanish shops in China. The big price is about 3 euros, and the small price is about 1 euros.

6. Electric iron

See personal needs. The one here is big and heavy, usually around 41 euros, so it is not recommended to buy it.

Books

Tips: European books are very expensive, a portable dictionary costs about 11 euros, and a novel with about 411 pages costs about 21 euros.

List: it is recommended to bring books about Spanish grammar.

Drugs (required)

Tips:

1. Drugs can be checked in the trunk.

2. Spanish pharmacy farmacia can sell over-the-counter drugs, and the price is not expensive. In case of emergency, you can buy medicine locally.

List: painkillers, carsick pills, cold tablets, anti-inflammatory drugs, headache drugs, eye drops, watermelon frost, Sismin, dermatitis ointment, stomach tablets and so on.

Food

Tips:

Most foods can be bought in China stores, such as Wang Shouyi Thirteen Spices seasoning, Lee Kum Kee soy sauce and oil consumption, Master Kong instant noodles, Shanghai dried noodles, rice cakes, glutinous rice balls, jiaozi, fermented bean curd, pickled mustard tuber, chafing dish base, brown sugar, and fresh tofu and lotus root.

you can bring a little according to your preference.

Cooking utensils

Tips:

Generally speaking, if you rent a house by yourself, the landlord's kitchen is fully equipped. There are bowls, plates, cups, cutlery (knives, forks, spoons), pans of various sizes (deep-mouthed pots are hard to find in China), pressure cookers (some have them at home), microwave ovens, and many homes also have ovens (which can make cakes, bake pizza, roast chicken, etc.) and spit drivers (which can bake bread). If you lack something, you can discuss it with the landlord, and a kind landlord will buy it for you. Spanish families generally use very advanced electromagnetic stoves, which are very safe and have four countertops. In principle, four dishes can be served at the same time.

list:

1. rice cookers (available in shops in China, the price is about 21 euros, so you can consider whether to carry them)

2. chopsticks+fork+spoon for travel. It doesn't take up space and is very convenient. It is a little troublesome to buy chopsticks in Spain.

3. The induction cooker is only used for making hot pot. Let's consider whether to bring it.

4. broadsword it is recommended to bring a sharp broadsword that can be used to cut meat, because Spanish knives are all delicate.

suitcase

Tips: All the luggage is finished. Let's put them in the suitcase.

if you buy a student ticket, generally speaking, you can carry two large suitcases, each of which does not exceed 21kg, and the other carry-on baggage does not exceed 11kg. Each airline has different regulations, so please pay attention to them.

List:

1. Two large suitcases, of good quality. Repairing things in Europe is very expensive.

2. suggest a mountaineering bag, so that you don't have to buy a mountaineering bag for European tourism in the future.
