Happy Friday! In case anyone thought we were slacking off during our trip to Europe this summer, we can tell you that we were not. As well as producing blog posts, we also wrote a number of articles for various magazines. Two of them (both about the Czech Republic!) have just been published. We can also show a new film from Germany!

Happy Friday!
It has been busy lately, and we have also been a little sick, so we are really looking forward to the weekend! We are happy to hopefully be able to take it easy, and maybe also catch up with things where we are behind. We are also pleased that two of the articles we wrote for various motorhome magazines are now in print. What has been the best part of your week?
Report on the Czech Republic in "Allt om Husvagn och Camping".
We featured a report on the Czech Republic in Caravanning and Camping Issue 9, 2018. In the report, called 'Beer, Spas and Agent 007', we write about the western Czech Republic and all the cool things we found in this corner of the country: medieval castles, beer breweries, spas, beer spas and James Bond film locations. We really enjoyed travelling in the northwest of the Czech Republic. The scenery is beautiful, there's plenty of history and you never have to crowd.
Report on the Czech Republic in "My Motorhome".
We have also written a report about the Czech Republic in the magazine My Motorhome issue 5, 2018. This article is about the beautiful and historic city of Brno, and the lovely surrounding area full of amazing castles and cosy vineyards. We have visited this part of the Czech Republic twice, and each time we are fascinated by the impressive buildings and the good white wines.
Film from Trier, Germany
If you follow our blog, you'll know that Peter likes to produce films from all the destinations we visit, but editing film takes time so sometimes he doesn't have the time. So in retrospect, here's a film from the fantastic Roman city of Trier in the Moselle Valley.

We read your report in "Allt om hudvagn och camping", very professional and also interesting for us, who have thoughts in that direction next summer.
The best thing for us this week is probably that we are finally on the road again and approaching Öland for a weekend with Fotoklubben down at Ottenby. Lovely weather at our lunch stop outside Nybro as an extra bonus.

Glad you enjoyed the report! And fun that you are planning a trip to the Czech Republic! 🙂 Nice trip to Öland!

It's good that real globetrotters can get their articles into newspapers so it doesn't just become a desktop product.
The best thing about my week is that I got a new and complete spindle joint, funny huh?

Right? We always write about places we've been, and usually very recently 🙂 Congratulations on the new spider trail!!!!

What fun with the sold travel reports. Great film too, with great music.
The Czech Republic is truly an amazing country. I remember our trip to Ostrava and hope we have the opportunity to travel together again in the future!
The best part of my week? It is probably that my Uppsala student (oldest son) came home this weekend. A long time ago!
Enjoy your own weekend and have a good time.

Fun with the reports, and of course we had fun in Ostrava? The Czech Republic has a lot to offer! 🙂 Have a nice weekend with the family!

Seija Viitamäki - Carlsson says:
Hey, hey, hey! Get well soon? We, Kjell and I, are very impressed with your pace in the different places you stay. We have currently travelled in the western Czech Republic. Walking the long hike in PRADNICKA DRAVA, drinking beer in Zatec, thermal bathing in Marianske Lazne, climbing kilometres in Asrdpach-Teplice Rocks. Had a wonderful tour in Ploskovice, fantastic castle. And now we have ended up in Krakow. We've been here before, and now it's so crowded and expensive. But how do you have time? You are professionals, and so accurate in your descriptions of locations, pitches, campsites. Everything is correct IRL/tack❤️

Helena says:
Hi Seija! What a nice comment! And how nice to hear that you travelled in this part of the Czech Republic! And not least, that you had a good time! Nice to hear that the location indications and other things are correct 🙂 And how we have time? Sometimes we travel more slowly, but this summer we had planned a lot in advance 😉.

Congratulations on two new articles with great pictures in the two newspapers. Well done there!
It really wasn't a holiday trip you took in July and August, more of a professional "mission trip" by various "employers". But you really like that sort of thing, and you're very good at it too.
The film was great. I liked that Peter filmed "at an angle" and then straightened the camera. Cool effect!

Helena says:
Thank you! The trip this summer included a lot of assignments and a lot of work, it's absolutely true! At the same time, we could travel together and experience in the way we like, perfect combo we think 🙂

I can't even imagine you being idle. Instead, where do you get your energy from?
Nice film from Trier.
Get well and wish you the peaceful and beautiful weekend you need!

Fun with articles, nicely done! (Although there is probably hardly anyone who thinks that you are on the lazy side during your travels... 🙂 )
