© Linnea Marklund

Linnea Marklund, a 33-year-old marketer from Arvidsjaur, left her life in Uppsala and moved into a self-built motorhome equipped for full-time living. She has built three motorhomes herself, installing a shower, toilet, induction hob, and an electrical system that allows simultaneous use of a hairdryer and the stove. She works part-time and changes her parking spot daily, staying no more than two nights. She has no plans to return to her old life and hopes a future partner will embrace this lifestyle.

Tenant refused to return motorhome

A Norwegian couple from Bergen rented out their 16-year-old motorhome for a week and a half. The tenant complained about water and sewage issues and dirt, but most claims were false, and actual faults were fixed. After the rental period, the man demanded a full refund and compensation for an Airbnb stay, refusing to return the motorhome. The couple called the police, who located it the same evening, but the tenant took the case to court. The court ruled in favor of the owners, ordering them to pay 1,500 kroner to the tenant; keys were returned after six months, and the motorhome was left uncleaned.
