In recent years, more and more people in Spain have been struggling to find a home of their own. Rising rental and property prices are forcing many to seek alternative living arrangements. One public sector worker decided to radically change his lifestyle and moved into a van.
According to him, this step has allowed him to significantly cut his monthly expenses. Instead of spending most of his salary on rent or a mortgage, he now only pays for the essentials. It’s not just about saving money—he also feels more independent from his circumstances.
Living in a van requires a certain amount of adjustment. You have to plan where to park at night and figure out how to organize your daily routine and store your belongings. However, for many, this lifestyle has become a way to find freedom and escape the constant pressure of paying for housing. As property prices keep climbing, such choices are becoming increasingly popular among Spaniards.
