Installation of a solar panel

We have had a real "mechanic car" weekend. On Saturday we went to Peter's brother Dennis to install a solar panel together. They have bought a solar panel similar to ours for their motorhome, so we thought we could help.

To FREEDOMtravel

How do you store wine bottles in your motorhome/caravan? In a motorhome or caravan, the wine bottles have to be stationary when driving. This adds another dimension to the question of how to store them.

Dance bands and rock are what you hear in the motorhomes (and where you readers are staying), if May's poll is anything to go by. At least most of the time, there seems to be a pretty mixed taste in music out there!

We are part of Amelia Summer

To FREEDOMtravel

We have been caught with a picture and report in a magazine again. This time it is the magazine Amelia Sommar. The report is part of a larger report called "Folkligt, festligt, fullsatt", which is about Swedes' desire to live a little more easier, little more crowded and a little more genuine in the summer.

To wave or not to wave in your motorhome - how do you do it?

To FREEDOMtravel

To wave in the motorhome or not to wave - that is the question. The first time we travelled in a motorhome was in New Zealand, and we quickly learned to wave to other motorhomes. Unexpected, but nice! And we have continued to wave in Sweden and Europe.

Photography for reportage

To FREEDOMtravel

Today we (Peter, me and Billie) have been photographed together with Freedom. The PR agency Mediaspjuth in Jönköping is doing a project for Elmia Husvagn Husbil where they will "boost" caravan and motorhome life in Sweden. There will be several reports about caravan and motorhome people, which will then be published in various local newspapers. We have already done an interview on the phone, and now it was time for photography!

Updating a GPS

To FREEDOMtravel

Last summer we got lost several times in Italy. Each time it was because our GPS led us onto roads that no longer existed ... Now we would like to get an update, but it costs £3,200!!!!
