-Rent: NZD70, for a bedroom in a moderately-sized three bedroom which I share with two roommates.
-Utilities: roughly 50 average summer and winter a month. I just pay for electricity

-Transportation: 20 every two months. i mainly commute by bike, so my train cost is roughly 25% of what it would be if I were to purchase an unlimited monthly pass, which is 80 a month.

-Food: $400 per month plus eating out $25 per each time
