I've realised that I have a (big) car and (perhaps one of Sweden's biggest) car blogs ... but no driving licence. It's not that I don't want a driving licence in principle, on the contrary! When we travel far with the motorhome, it would be smart if we both had a driving licence. What if Peter gets sick, for example ...

We have now bought a winter cover for the motorhome. Our motorhome will be outside during the winter and we want to protect it from the weather as much as possible. Of course, it would be even better if the motorhome could be kept indoors, but we can't find a good solution for that this year. We hope that a blanket will help!

Some are already in place at more southern latitudes, and we have to admit that it doesn't sound too bad.

Read moreWhen we drove out of the Lysingsbadet campsite in Västervik, we found at last a car wash that can accommodate our motorhome. Most car washes are only 2.8 or 3.0 metres high and our motorhome is 3.1 metres high. We never know where to wash it. So we were happy when we saw Stanley's Powerwash in Västervik.

Today, when we were sitting outside the motorhome here at the campsite in Borgholm, a man came up and showed us mudguards to put behind the front tyres of the motorhome. The idea, of course, is to prevent dirt from splashing up on the car from the tyres.
