M. Bibiloni, a 31-year-old civil servant for the Balearic Government, has been living in a motorhome in Palma for a year. She states this is not a lifestyle choice but a direct consequence of unaffordable rents: a stable job and fixed salary no longer guarantee access to housing on the island. Monthly motorhome costs (insurance, maintenance, financing) are 300–400 euros, allowing savings of about 1,000 euros per month, while a small studio in Palma costs over 1,000 euros. Bibiloni criticizes authorities for focusing on motorhomes rather than the structural housing emergency.
