I tried vanlife. It was a vacation hell

In Sweden, caravans are often used not only for holidays but also as home offices, chicken coops, pop-up shops, or makeup rooms. For instance, one family renovated a 1977 Adria 380 caravan, which now serves as an extra room in the garden, and the renovation story on Instagram gained over 21,000 followers. Other uses include mobile saunas, studios, and spaces for teenagers.

A motorhome disguised as a standard Volvo FM9 truck is listed for sale on the Swedish marketplace Blocket. The nearly 10-meter-long vehicle, weighing up to 20 tons, features solar panels, a large battery bank, and a water tank for off-grid operation. Registered for year-round use, the motorhome is priced at 179,000 Swedish kronor.

A car towing a caravan was involved in an accident near Vänersborg. The E45 highway is closed southbound during rescue operations, with no estimated reopening time.

Farm owner Jonas Nilsson has applied to create 25-30 motorhome parking spaces on northern Öland for summer 2026. The initiative addresses the shortage of overnight spots outside campsites in this popular tourist region.

Jan Myrtorp from Fjugesta is selling his collection of caravans, which he started in 1966. His first unit was purchased from the local manufacturer Anderssons husvagnar.

The E6 motorway between Kungsbacka and Varberg is closed towards Malmö after a caravan overturned around lunchtime. The accident occurred between the Fjärås and Frillesås exits, with traffic towards Gothenburg unaffected.
