Ronan, a web developer from Brest, sold his house in November 2021 for €112,000. The house had been bought for €45,000, with renovations costing €25,000. With part of the proceeds (about €22,000) he purchased a 2005 motorhome with 14 sq. m of space, featuring a bedroom and a fold-down table. Since April 2022 he has led a nomadic lifestyle.
With a monthly income of €1,600–1,800, Ronan saves €300–400. The savings come from eliminating utility bills and property tax (€480 per year). Expenses include fuel (about €200 per month), gas (€240–300 per year), insurance, maintenance, and campsite fees (€5–20 per night).
