A motorhome equipped with a sink, shower, toilet, stove with oven, and refrigerator has been listed for sale on Avito in the Altai Republic. Price is 1 million rubles.

Tom Hanks' son has swapped Hollywood for a trailer in pursuit of a music career, and a French couple has driven 100,000 km from the North Cape to Senegal — and that's not even the whole story. All this in this issue.
