Josep Jané, a 62-year-old retiree from Barcelona, has been voluntarily maintaining and welcoming guests at the motorhome parking area in Bovera (Lleida) since February. He helps drivers park, informs them about local services, and resolves issues. He moved to the village in April and rents a house there.
