Couple Lives in Motorhome for Five Years to Save a Thousand Euros a Month

Maribel and Vicente, retirees from Mallorca, gave up their conventional home five years ago to live in a motorhome of about 10 square meters. They travel across Europe, adjusting their routes to seasons and budget. The couple says that leaving their house cut their monthly expenses by about 1,000 euros, covering utilities and car payments. They spend around 2,000 euros a month on living and travel, with a fuel budget of 700 euros. The motorhome is equipped with appliances, including an air fryer, coffee machine, fridge, freezer, and two TVs.
