In 2026, motorhome and caravan owners face significant costs on European toll roads. The highest expenses are expected in Switzerland, France, Austria, Italy, and Scandinavia. In Switzerland, motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes incur a daily heavy vehicle fee of up to 300 francs, while crossing the Øresund Bridge between Denmark and Sweden can cost up to €222. To save money, it is recommended to use transponders (Bip&Go, Telepass, BroBizz), choose free national roads, and book tickets online.

A guide to getting internet in motorhomes and caravans covers options: campsite Wi-Fi, mobile internet via smartphone hotspot, 4G/LTE/5G routers, external antennas, USB dongles, satellite internet, and TV. It details pros and cons of each method, including cost, signal quality, and usability. Recommended routers include TP-Link M7350, Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 and MR5200, and Teltonika RUTX50. EU roaming rules and prepaid SIM options outside the EU are also discussed.

Anna, 65, from Nuremberg lives in a caravan on a meadow owned by her family to make ends meet. She receives unemployment benefits of 894 euros per month, which are not enough to live on, and expects to receive a regular pension of about 1,300 euros in 15 months. Anna describes how she fell through the cracks of the social system after divorce, bankruptcy, and the death of her son.

On August 29, 2026, the Dresden Transport Museum will host a vintage camper and motorhome meetup in the Stallhof courtyard.
