Overview

• Petra and Bernd Friedrich left Germany for Greece seeking lower living costs and a healthier climate but faced unexpected challenges upon arrival.
• The couple paid €900 without a formal rental contract for a house that was cluttered, surveilled, and uninhabitable, forcing them to leave after one night.
• They lived in their motorhome for weeks while attempting to recover their money, but the landlord denied receiving payment, leaving them financially strained.
• By January, the Friedrichs secured a new 100 m² rental house with a proper contract for €600 per month, providing a stable living situation.
• Their journey, documented by the reality show 'Goodbye Deutschland,' highlights the risks of emigrating without legal safeguards and proper planning.
