In April's Question of the Month, we asked what your next purchase will be for your motorhome. It turned out that many people are planning to buy solar cells. In fact, more than one in four of our readers are planning this particular purchase.

Today Peter went shopping for new wine glasses for the campervan. Of the old six wine glasses, five (!) have broken. Not during a wild party, if anyone thought so, but in almost all cases when we washed and dried them. The glass has simply come off the base. The new ones are made in one piece, so they shouldn't break as easily.
Read moreNow it's a bit "What did we say?". We have praised Poland time and time again and talked about how nice and affordable it is to camp there. Now the German motoring organisation ADAC has concluded that Poland is the cheapest camping country in Europe.
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.
Read moreOften you think all motorhomes look the same: big white houses on wheels. But sometimes you see a car that really stands out. Here are some special motorhomes we've seen over the years, and a caravan. Any favourites?

Do you have any other good tips?
Read moreToday's post is about energy sources in a motorhome. In a motorhome, you think more about where the energy comes from and how much you use than you do at home in an apartment. When we free camp, we can easily manage the essentials (heating, fridge, cooking) with LPG.
Read moreA motorhome should not only look good (haha) but also be practical. You live in a small space and have to carry a lot of stuff with you, which should preferably remain stationary while driving... Here are some of our solutions.
Read moreWe continue the story of what we've done to the motorhome since we bought it in autumn 2008... We couldn't settle for lights on the outside of the car, but wanted some lighting inside as well. LED lights are really good in a motorhome because they use so little power.
Read moreWe weren't too keen on the original blue interior of the motorhome, so after having the motorhome for a while we decided to change it. After much deliberation back and forth, we decided on brown. Brown may sound boring, but it's a warm and calm colour, which we thought went well with the lighter wood.
