Eva Juozaitiene and her husband Mantas swapped London‘s commuter belt for Lithuania
(Picture: Handout)In February 2020, Eva Juozaitiene and her husband Mantas folded a blank piece of paper in half and wrote a list. On one side were reasons to stay in the UK. On the other were reasons to move to Lithuania, where they were both from. At the top of the second column, they put: “Having time to spend with the kids” and “living mortgage-free”.
By November that year, Eva and Mantas had left their jobs, sold their comfortable semi-detached house in Swanley, Kent, and moved in with Mantas’ parents in Rietavas, Lithuania, while they built a new, self-sufficient home for their family.
