University Students Turn To Van Life In A Bid To Save Costs

FALMOUTH, ENGLAND - JANUARY 07: FALMOUTH, ENGLAND, JANUARY 07: Third year student at Falmouth University, Yasmine Fosu, repairs a broken mirror on her van on January 07, 2021 in Falmouth, England. YasmineÕs partner who lives with her in the van Max Richmond, 21 from Essex, is taking a degree in Renewal Engineering and Yasmine, 20 from Bristol, studies French, Politics and International Relations. They met on their second day at Falmouth University. Max and Yasmine are one couple among a growing trend of young students throughout the UK who choose to live in vans to have freedom of movement and avoid accommodation rental costs. Their Iveco Panel van cost £3000 and approximately £6000 per year to run while rooms for students at the university costs £400 - £750 per month with a minimum of 6-months rental. The UK government's Covid lockdown official guidance says most students should stay at home but many intend to go back to their studies.
