Today we take the opportunity to tell you about some news on the blog, which hopefully makes it easier to find tips and travel destinations. We have a lot of exciting things to tell you about the Elmia motorhome and caravan fair, but last night we had a (very nice!) visit in the houseboat and it was far too late to write a long report from the fair ...
Table of contents
We'll tell you more about the fair soon
We have already told you about both mobile homes and ploughshares at Elmia Husvagn Husbil 2018. Soon we will return with another report! In the meantime, we're taking the opportunity to tell you about all the improvements we're making on the blog ...
Easier to find travel destinations
To make it easier to find travel destinations on our blog, we've renamed a heading in the menu to just ... destination. It used to say "travel tips" here, but we feel that "destinations" says more about what it's about. Under this heading you will find tips on more than 300 destinations in the continents we have travelled to: Europe, Asia, Africa, North America and Oceania (with a focus on Europe).
We haven't been everywhere, of course, and if you want tips on destinations we haven't been to, you can click on "Travelling the world" (the arrow). Here we have collected tips and travel reports on more than 150 (!) countries, written in Swedish by around 100 different Swedish travel bloggers. The reports are sorted under each country, in alphabetical order from Afghanistan to East Timor.
Travel inspiration in one place
We've also made it easier to find travel inspiration in the form of blog posts about inspiring places and experiences. If you click on 'Pre-trip' in the menu, you'll find 'Travel inspiration', and under this heading you'll find lots of topics such as caravanning, outdoor life, adventure, cities and so on. Click here to find the latest blog posts on this particular topic.
Facebook and Instagram
We would also like to remind you that you can of course also find us at Facebook and Instagram. If you don't already follow us there, please do!

Structured and good. You are good at changing and rearranging things to make it easier for us readers to find what we are interested in. I think there are many of us who want tips on travel destinations but are not travelling by motorhome or camping and then we sometimes have slightly different interests.
We can all be inspired by you.

Yes, it is an eternal chore behind those blogs that are not visible to the outside world :). Have just installed https, which of course made some functions disappear. Your site is super easy to navigate. If I had a wish, it would be that Travel in the world was in the top menu. Such a good site and we often recommend it.

Helena says:
Surely there is a craft behind the blog! We switched to https in ours and also got trouble in connection with it, so I understand what you mean! thanks for the input on Travelling the world! For some reasons, we want to have as few top menus as possible, but we take it to heart and think about it!

I thought it was good even before and even better with the title "Travel inspiration. Always nice to have tips and ideas.

Tried commenting via Firefox but it didn't work. But with Safari it worked fine.

How strange that it was not possible to comment with Firefox? Thanks for letting us know!

Your blog is a real goldmine for travellers. Yes, even for me who is not travelling anymore. I always learn something new.

Helena says:
Reading blogs is a great way to learn new things, we always learn things on all the blogs we follow 😉.

Britt-Marie Lundgren says:
I already find your blog exemplarily easy to navigate.
How good will it be now?
All the tips under "Travelling the world" are really good to search if you are curious about a destination!

The owners got much-needed tips from your travel tips page last summer when I travelled around Poland. Nice with such small changes to constantly improve.
One improvement that my owners have considered is whether it is possible to save my name, my email address and my website....
13 September 2018 - 18:47
Helena says:
Ah, nice to hear! And great feedback! So it doesn't save names and emails ....!? Ok, I understand that this is impractical and frustrating. I don't know how to solve it, but I'll ask the IT guy who helps us sometimes when I get the chance.

You are really super good at "updating backwards" if you say so. Oh you Helena is the most structured person I "know", even if it is perhaps Peter who does the actual rough work.
Your blog contains information and adventures for everyone, even for those of us without a motorhome.
Good work there!
PS. By the way, I agree with Husisblogg. Every time I comment, I have to click in three fields to bring up name, email address and website. DS.

Helena says:
Haha, yes I'm probably actually a pretty structured person, for better or worse 😉 And the idea is really that the tips on destinations should be for everyone, no matter how you travel! Thanks for the input on the comment function! I understand that this can be frustrating! I do not know how to solve it, but I will take it with me and see if I can solve it now or later!

Great updates! Travel destinations was a much better title. Think what a job you have done in compiling all these links. You inspire to a thousand!
Will check it out and read it. 🙂

Thank you for your feedback Anna! Glad you like our updates!

Answer: Yes, how cosy it is to live in a car 🙂 Yes, it was a shame. But now I have booked a trip to Israel and I am really excited about it - so it probably worked out for me 🙂 Hugs back!
Good change with the travel destinations! Now I also realised that I have some more destinations I can add to the list, I can email the links to you 🙂 .

Helena says:
So glad you found another great trip! We were in Israel last year, and it was a really interesting country to visit! Feel free to email the links to us, and we'll add them!
