Authorities warn of vehicle break-ins in Sweden

The Alm family from Boxholm, Sweden, is planning their summer caravan holiday. Departure is set for June 17. The route is not yet fixed, but ice cream and warm weather are mandatory. Fifteen-year-old Elmer expressed interest in visiting the Trulli houses in southern Italy. The family's travels are documented on Instagram, where they have thousands of followers.

The Black Beast, a 14-meter caravan with a sauna and underfloor heating, has been on sale in Sweden for over a year at €50,000, down from its original €125,000 in 2008. Its extreme size makes it impractical for most users, limiting campsite access and requiring a heavy tow vehicle. Recent auctions saw bids as low as €14,000.

At Happy farm near Källby, Sweden, along road 44, motorhome pitches, a waffle café, play areas, and a petting zoo are now available. Owners Ulf and Vanessa Karlsson describe the venture as their vacation. The site draws visitors from near and far.

A campsite in Borås, Sweden, has reached its maximum occupancy. Motorhome and caravan owners have occupied all available pitches, leading to overcrowding. The surge is attributed to the growing popularity of mobile leisure travel in the area.

On Friday afternoon, rescue services responded to a report of a motorhome emitting smoke. The call came in just before 3:00 PM from drivers on the E4 between Måttsund and Gäddvik. Upon arrival, rescuers found no fire; the vehicle was stopped and inspected.

The Black Beast, recognized as the world's largest caravan, has been on sale in Sweden for over a year without finding a buyer. It is a one-of-a-kind unit that has had multiple previous owners. Despite a relatively low price, potential buyers are deterred by logistical challenges: towing requires a powerful truck, and storage needs a dedicated space. The story gained traction due to the paradox that record size and affordable price do not guarantee commercial success.
