Laima Krasauskienė from Klaipėda and her partner Kazys have visited 32 countries in four years using an old camper purchased for €4,000. The couple travels solely on their pensions: each receives €800 per month, plus an additional €51. They avoid expensive campsites, preferring wild camping, and cook from supplies like canned meat and mushrooms. Future plans include Turkey, Bulgaria, and Georgia.
