We have seen The way back, starring Ed Harris, Colin Farrell and Gustav Skarsgård among others. As the film begins, we are thrown into a dirty and cold labour camp in Siberia during World War II.

Read moreThe Red Room and The Wonderful Voyage of Nils Holgersson are just two literary representations of Sweden. Follow the books around our elongated country and visit its well-trodden cities and paths. From the back of a goose, Nils Holgersson saw the whole of Sweden, from Skåne with its patchwork of fields to Kebnekaise.

Read moreIf you have winter tyres on your motorhome, it's time to change the tyres. (At least we thought so, but last night it started snowing again...) We got the winter tyres when we bought the motorhome second-hand in autumn 2008. We haven't used them in previous winters, as we have kept the motorhome over the winter months. This year we changed to winter tyres for the first time.
