In Brief

Spanish pensioners Fernando and Ana (referred to as Anna in some sources) moved into a 1997 Fiat Ducatoⓘ Maxi motorhome, which they renovated for 1631 euros. They say they gave up paying for housing, utilities, and other expenses, which improved their financial situation.

The couple claims they now have money left at the end of the month, as they no longer pay for electricity, water, internet, or home maintenance. Costs vary by country: in France, fuel and food are more expensive, while in Spain they buy only essentials. They also note that they support the local economy by purchasing goods in every city they visit.

The couple does repairs themselves to save money and adapts their trips to their budget. According to one source, they live on a pension of about 1000 euros.
