Galicia sees rise in campervan projects amid night-stay ban disputes

The surge in camper tourism has led to overcrowding in coastal areas of Galicia. Several municipalities, including O Grove, are drafting ordinances to prohibit overnight parking of motorhomes and camper vans in public and natural spaces, restricting it to designated areas and campsites. Local authorities describe the situation as an "invasion" and cite ecological concerns, while caravanning associations argue the measures are discriminatory and call for more serviced parking areas.

Retired Couple from Mallorca Shares Reality of Living in a Motorhome: Freedom and Savings vs. Cramped Quarters

A retired couple from Mallorca has been living in a motorhome of about 10 square meters for five years. They save around 1,400 euros per month, cap fuel spending at 700 euros, and rely on solar panels for energy independence. However, the lack of space, the need for constant joint decisions, and technical breakdowns create tension in their relationship. The couple notes that Mallorca's humid climate was difficult for one of them, and the drier air during travels improved their well-being.

Spanish man shares costs of living in a camper van

Jesús, creator of the Viaja en tribu project, shared his experience of living in a six-meter camper van. His monthly expenses range from 300 to 500 euros, half the cost of maintaining an apartment. He noted that after selling his flat, his costs decreased, and life on wheels helped him overcome anxiety and depression. Jesús also warned about rising camper prices: his Fiat Ducato model increased from 50,000 to 80,000 euros.
