"I left my depressing concrete home to live in a caravan - rent is just £90-a-week"
Ben John, 38, had always dreamed of living in a caravan as a child after growing up on a council estate in Leeds, UK.
After moving down to Bournemouth, Dorset, aged 23 he spent his twenties socialising before realising six years ago that he wanted a quieter life.
He bought a touring caravan for just £1,000 and moved it onto a residential site - surrounded by nature.
Ben upgraded it a year ago to a newer £5,000 caravan and spends just £90-a-week on rent, council tax and water.
In the summer Ben spends £20-a-month on electric, and a £100 in winter and £60 on diesel for heating.
