Although we just can't seem to escape the rain, we opted to make our last stop in Sweden at the small island of Smögen. But sadly we should have known better as it tends to get very busy and touristy in July and early August. The famous Smögen Pier (“Smögenbryggan”) – an almost 1,000 m long wooden pier – is the BIGGEST summer attraction in Bohuslän and alongside, shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and clubs are jam-packed during summer. Luckily, just a few minutes walk from the hustle and bustle, we found the almost deserted Sandön reserve area - which largely encloses the Sandöfjord - offering brilliant little beaches and walking trails.

The Gothenburg archipelago consists of over 30 beautiful islands, easily accessible by car or public transport. The archipelago is split into north and south and both with equally stunning and cosy big, or small, islands to explore. Hönö island lies in the northern archipelago, with Hönö Klåva harbour acting as the island’s main hub. You can get your bearings and a bird’s eye view of Hönö and neighboring islands from Hönö Vattentorn, a water tower and observation deck on Utsiktsvägen, a 10-minute walk north of Hönö Klåva. Or you can simply chill out on Jungfruviken beach, a 25-minute walk from Hönö Klåva and the perfect place for a dip and a picnic. ABOUT US: Welcome! We’re Andre and Lisa.

Our motorhome journey through Scandinavia continues in Sweden and we leave Kåseberga in search for some beach time. Sandhammaren and surrounds are well known for it's long stretches of powdery white sand beaches and we were way overdue for a dip. However, the sheer volume of holiday makers and lack of parking saw us abandon our plan and we continued further along the coast to the small harbor town of Skillinge, from where we could cycle back to one of the closer sections of beach. With bad weather forecast along the south coast we then cut across back to the west coast and found ourselves in Ängelholm - where although a storm was brewing, a decent onshore wind provided for a quick kite surfing session! ABOUT US: Hi! We're Andre & Lisa! Full time travelers and nomads since 2018. This was not an overnight decision. It was a goal we worked towards for 2 decades. We have always prioritized travel as a way to satisfy our most basic curiosity - to depart from regular life into something new, even if only briefly, before returning to ‘normality’. Normality, however, is subjective and when you travel to unfamiliar places, you lose your grounding, your bearings - it challenges everything you consider ‘normal’ about life.

After a slow(ish) start to our motorhome trip through Sweden we leave Malmo and head towards the Falsterbo peninsula in the south of Sweden. The town of Falsterbo is located in the southern part of the Falsterbo peninsula. Together with Skanör it forms a twin city. Both places are among the oldest cities in Sweden. Falsterbo is also nationally known for the Falsterbo Horse Show. Every summer the event sets the region for one week into a state of frenzy. Guess what week this was?! 🤔Luckily we managed to find a brilliant parking at the Falsterbo marina which was also within walking distance from one of the BEST kite-surfing spots in the south of Sweden! Oh, we also visited IKEA in Malmo en-route to sample their famous meatballs, make it to Smygehuk (the southernmost point of Sweden) as well as to Ales Stenar - a 400-year-old monolithic monument in the shape of a ship, made up of 59 large stones & perched on a hill.

One year after purchasing our very first Campervan in Europe, we reflect on some POSITIVES and some NEGATIVES of our choice of purchasing a 20 year old Motorhome. We also discuss the most significant improvements and additions we have made to our Campervan over the past year of full time living in our motorhome. This includes some more pricey items which we believe have been well worthwhile and also some cheap(er) and easy upgrades to improve your van life experience. 0:00 Intro 0:46 Positives & Negative Explanation POSITIVES: 3:44 Purchasing From A Dealer 4:44 Permanent Bed 5:16 Overhead Storage 5:49 Garage 6:11 Bathroom & Shower 6:56 Captain Chair 7:14 Bicycle Rack 7:27 Stabilizer Legs 7:48 Air-conditioning NEGATIVES: 8:36 Low Emission Rating 8:55 No Cab Air-conditioning 9:11 Small Fridge & Freezer 9:41 Poor Roof Strength & Design 9:56 No Skylight 10:13 Narrow Bed 10:40 Pressurized Water System 11:44 Unknown Batteries (Age & Condition) 'EXPENSIVE' CHANGES: 12:47 Solar Panels & Batteries -- ECOFLOW RIVER Pro Portable Power Station 720Wh https://amzn.to/3PrVMP8 -- 60W Portable Solar Panels https://amzn.to/3B8hKTc -- 175 W Flexible Solar Panel https://amzn.to/3zl1nBm -- 40 Amp 12V/24V DC Input MPPT Solar Charge Controller https://amzn.to/3zliumq 15:25 Refillable LPG Tank 16:05 Reversing / Rearview Camera https://amzn.to/3znTFGI 16:35 Wi-Fi Security Camera https://amzn.to/3xO4mjF 17:14 Safe / Lockbox https://amzn.to/3zXURkS 17:34 Steering Lock https://amzn.to/3tVz5ud 17:51 External Door Locks 18:13 Window Alarms https://amzn.to/3B5wCBC 18:20 Amazon Echo Dot https://amzn.to/3zmXeg4 18:33 New Mattress 18:58 Upholstery 19:39 Cordless Vacuum https://amzn.to/3ncQKJO 20:11 Water Filter https://amzn.to/3OzLv2F 20:24 Outside Shower Kit https://amzn.to/3aXamzk 21:04 Window Shields / Shades 'CHEAP' CHANGES: 21:38 Mirrors 22:30 PVC Venetian Blinds 22:54 Spray-painting Cabinets doors 23:17 LED Light Conversion 23:41 Tire Pressure Monitoring System https://amzn.to/3v696AK 24:08 Battery Monitor https://amzn.to/3QDeKU2 24:24 3-Way (Fridge) Thermometer https://amzn.to/3ORQlIT 25:10 Smoke Alarm https://amzn.to/3n7VHnh 25:12 Carbon Monoxide Alarm https://amzn.to/3A30pKV 25:34 Kitchen Counter Extensions 26:01 Window Protector Strips 26:22 Cooking Extractor Fan 26:36 Fridge Cooling Fan https://amzn.to/3cuYMM6 26:57 REFLECTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT US: Hi!

We continue our journey through southern Sweden with our next stop - Malmö Although Malmö seems like a pleasant enough city we did not have the best luck with weather (again!) and in retrospect we could easily have skipped it. City destinations have additional challenges (such as safe parking!) and after being on the road for almost a year we're definitely favoring the more rural stops. Still, Malmö has plenty of charm and we were surprised at the lovely beaches so close to the city! ABOUT US: Hi! We're Andre & Lisa! Full time travelers and nomads since 2018.
