Wintering with a motorhome in southern Europe
Last autumn we were contacted by a journalist who wanted to write a report for a magazine Husbil & Husvagn about wintering with a motorhome in Southern Europe, or rather in Spain and Portugal to be more specific. Did we want to share our experiences? Yes, why not? It all resulted in a report called "Wintering in Europe - two couples give their best tips".
The other couple in this case is Lennart and his wife who run the great site Husbilslivet.se. We're a bit curious to read their tips (and see the report at all!), but actually didn't find the magazine yesterday even though we looked at T-Centralen ... Below you can see a screenshot from the magazine's website.
Do you want to read the magazine?
If you want tips on wintering with a motorhome in Spain and Portugal, you can of course buy the magazine. It is available at some selected Pressbyrån, Coop and ICA and perhaps above all at very many OK / Q8. It should be the latest issue, that is, number 2, 2017. Maybe we will manage to find it today too ...

Congratulations! 😀
When we had a caravan, we always bought the Caravan & Camping magazine. It was fun to read about others and get tips.
All good, now I'm off on a mission! 😀
PS. I haven't told in the blog where I'm going in June, but it will come, soon 😀.

Exciting:) Then we have to read it. Strange that you who are included in the magazine do not get it sent to your home ?? Hugs

Renate, thank you, it is fun to be involved 🙂 .
Geddfish, oh what a lot of exciting things you have going on! First "mission" and then travelling to a "secret" place, you know how to keep you on your toes haha 😉.
Dessan, I'm sure we can get a copy if we ask for it, but the last time I did it (can't remember which magazine) it took so long ... so we thought we might as well buy it ourselves ...

That sounds interesting, I'll see if I can find the magazine today when I go into town... I'll concentrate on remembering it while the dental hygienist pokes and prods my poor teeth.

Lena in Wales says:
Sounds exciting! I am currently in Spain and see many motorhomes everywhere here, sometimes also Swedish. Seems to be popular.

Marina says:
Fun! Now I must admit that this particular knowledge is perhaps not a high priority for me, but you should never say never...;)

Overwintering with my (future) patch at the Mediterranean would have been something 🙂 Can you retire when the children have moved out? May probably take and become a digital nomad, it seems like 😉

Ama de casa says:
It's nice that you are involved in the more "old-fashioned" media as well. I, being of the old tribe, may prefer to browse a real newspaper sometimes. Especially if the sun shines too much so you do not see so well on the computer screen / tablet / fool 😉.

"Bläddermedia" we sometimes buy, congratulations on your participation there! Good reportage for many who are on their way to the EU. We feel like veterans nowadays ha-ha!

Then I have to check in our local ica store, not because it is so well-stocked but they have a large magazine shelf and I have bought that magazine before, I know that.
We usually bring a couple of issues in the Kottebobil in the summer to sit and read and browse.
I think there is perhaps too much advertising in the magazine, but the reports are usually worth reading. And then you can always find some tips too. Fun reading.

Henny, the dental hygienist doesn't sound like much fun ... but of course good!
Lena in Wales, it has become very popular to spend the winter in the south in a motorhome! Among the Scandinavians, but also among Germans, Dutch, English ...
Marina, the article has a specific focus, and I'm fully aware that it's not interesting for everyone 🙂.
Linnea, digital nomad can be a future 🙂 .
Liniztravel, it will be great to see you!
Camilla, we hope we can contribute something! 😉
Ama de casa, it's nice to have a real newspaper sometimes. I like that too!
Lena & Jan, yes in this area you have a lot of experience! 🙂
Ann-Sofie and Lennart, glad you liked it! 🙂
Anki, we have noticed that it is not available everywhere, it must be more well-stocked newspaper stands perhaps ...
Rantamor, if it was there before, they might have it. It was otherwise far from all ICA stores if you say so ...

I hope your e-book exists if specialised magazines are so hard to find.

What fun! I'm sure many people will benefit from your tips on wintering in a motorhome in Europe.

Rantamor on the retina says:
Bingo...the magazine was available at our little Ica in Nordmaling so now we have some reading, Rantafar got priority....
Looks at everything a bit more carefully, including which companies he should buy shares and funds in !!!! ????
My lice reader !!!

Got the magazine at COOP and survived the dental hygienist. Nice to have it done.
Tonight I'm going to cosy up and read a magazine. Bought another motorhome magazine on the spur of the moment.

Lennart Nilsson says:
It's fun to be involved and contribute some information and tips that benefit non-blog readers.
I've emailed the report to you in case you still haven't found the magazine.

I am a regular reader of both the blog and the magazine. I'm glad you're on board!

BP says:
Very nice that you are in that magazine too!!!!
If you can't find the magazine, you can wait until the Caravan Fair in Kista, where it will be distributed for free;-)
PS. Even better - call the magazine and ask for a copy. When I/we wrote newspaper articles, we always sent free copies to contributors. DS.

It's great that you're joining us, so I have something interesting waiting for me at home on the kitchen table.

admin says:
Steve, haha, right?
Ditte, let's hope it's useful to someone 😉.
Rantamor, wow, fantastic that you were able to find it at your ICA (considering that we had such a hard time finding it in Stockholm! ;)).
Henny, says the same thing to you as to Rantamor! There seems to be a better selection of motorhome magazines at ICA and Coop outside Stockholm! 😉
Lennart, thank you so much!!! We had not had time to get it, so fun to read! Good idea to ask for it as a pdf! Many thanks again! 🙂
Rolle o Carina, fun! 🙂
Matts, yes a bit fun to be in "real" traditional paper media as well 🙂 .
BP, thanks for the tip! We have received a pdf now from Lennart, who is interviewed in the same report 🙂 .
The camper van Helge, hope you like it! 🙂
