Questions, questions, questions

I emailed Gisela again today, since she seemed to be somewhat helpful yesterday. Unfortunately, she was very brief today. I imagine she gets a lot of e-mails from other would-be applicants as well, so I'll just have to find as much info as I can on my own.

I'm a little bit worried about the 631 Euro grant (that's how much I make each month for working twelve hours a week). It works out to about $1000 CAD. I hope it'll be enough to live off of! Basically all Gisela said about it was this:

"So far we have not had complaints from former assistants in the sense of not being able to cope with their financial situation. Please, bear in mind that this is a grant and not a salary."
