When it comes to roads, Poland is building like crazy, and it needs it. In places it is a patchwork that Sweden would not even approve as a road. The difference between Poland and the Czech Republic is that the Czech Republic has small roads and lower speeds, while Poland has higher speeds and much more traffic, on the same small roads. So forget about being in a hurry! Just go between 50 and 80 kilometres per hour and enjoy life.

The trip around Europe can be summarised as enormous fun. There was never a time when we were unsafe, for any robbery or the like. It seemed almost ridiculous that we installed a safe, but this is done so that there is not even a small risk of losing our passports, for example. The only time we showed them was when we were going home on the ferry between Poland and Sweden. There are no borders left, you hardly know when you enter a new country.
Read moreThen we leave Italy with a mixed taste in our mouths. The weather has been wonderful all the time, just what you want, but the food is not great and it's expensive. 500 SEK for each night on a campsite, and it's almost a requirement from two teenage boys that there should be a pool and other fun things. Then we also have Italians who have patience on the outside, honking and shouting at everything, fun people. We have to take our pitches and do it at the right price, when the teenagers grow up.
Read moreDN reports in an article today that sales of caravans and motorhomes are declining. This year, 40 per cent fewer new motorhomes have been sold compared to last year. At the same time, interest in camping is increasing in the country. So what is the reason for the decline?
Read moreNow we have prepared for our trip to Europe with a safe in the motorhome! It can be good to have a place where you can store passports, ferry tickets, extra credit cards and other things that you care about and don't want to lose. Now that we have a safe in the motorhome, we feel much safer.
Read moreWhat about motorhomes and water connections! Now there are real couplings with stainless steel support sleeves instead of plastic. They were not easy to get hold of, as it is a rather special dimension. Fortunately, we have the car at P-bil Stockholm, which in addition to the workshop on motorhomes, caravans and passenger cars builds cranes and hydraulics on trucks. The guy at P-bil is knowledgeable and knew where to look. Apparently, these plastic quick couplings are supposed to last, but after two water leaks in six months, you start to wonder.
Read moreAs you may know by now, we have had quite a few problems with water leaks in the motorhome. The latest problem is really serious because the leak is in a place where you can't get to it, and it will be quite expensive to fix.
Read moreWe've been wondering for quite some time what the rules are for free camping in Sweden. That is, where can you spend the night in your motorhome and how long can you stay? Most people we've talked to have given different answers, but now it seems we've found what applies ...
Read moreNow we have major problems with water leakage in the motorhome! The camper was already leaking last autumn, but after a tightness check we thought the problem was fixed. In the spring we noticed that it was still dripping under the car.
Read moreWe have had problems with the water since we got the car. I can't even remember all the trouble! The water has leaked under the car in the car park and worse - on the floor under the kitchen cabinets. Cold water has come out of the hot water tap and vice versa - or there has been no water at all. Now we have problems with water leaks again.
