It won't pay. It's about 1000 times cheaper to go on an all-exclusive holiday where you'll be stuffed 5 times a day and come back from the holiday 7 kilos heavier. It's 100x cheaper to go to Croatia to an apartment than to crowd yourself in an overpriced campsite "Despite...
There are about a thousand possibilities for the interior layout of a motorhome. Every motorhomer requires something different. Just like in an apartment or a house, everyone arranges their furniture differently. In a motorhome, however, you can't move it around. What motorhome you buy, that's what you'll have until you...
Motorhomes are pretty expensive fun. Not even mentioning that most motorhomes are actually expensive Fiats. The lockers are like kinderwave, just don't touch anything so it doesn't fall off. Of course there are some quality brands, but they cost about 2x as much as the kindervac ones. We'll talk about...
Hiring a motorhome is, in my opinion, the cheapest way to find out if motorhoming is for you and what kind of motorhome to actually buy. Probably every motorhome owner I know has had at least one motorhome. Not because the previous one didn't work, but because something didn't suit...
With the advent of iPhones, various online apps with motorhome parking maps have also made inroads. However, these apps may not always include verified and official car parks. So take them with a grain of salt and read some of the recent comments. Apps for motorhoming without a campsite Our...
A motorhome is like a hut on wheels. Inside it has shelving, cupboards with hangers and a relatively spacious fridge. The first motorhome we had was a six-metre Knaus semi-integrator, which had a pretty decent sized garage in addition to a million cupboards. The garage, that's a big storage room...
Buying a passenger car is a piece of cake. You choose your favourite model, colour and you're done. All passenger cars usually have 5 seats and a trunk. They differ only in size and subtly in optional equipment. The price of a motorhome or camper van is probably the first...
I recommend the motorhome show to everyone. In one place you have the opportunity to see, try and compare all the brands available in Europe. In addition to motorhomes, there are also manufacturers of accessories such as awnings, satellites or even manufacturers of equipment for campsites and motorhome parkings. How...
A motorhome is essentially a superstructure or build-up to a standard van. Most often Fiets are used for this conversion because they are the cheapest and therefore the price of the motorhome should be lower. Even though it doesn't look like it in reality. How does it work in practice?...

If you are choosing a motorhome hire company in advance, you can also choose by the brand of motorhome you are renting. However, most brands look more or less the same. Although there are some differences in build quality, such as edge treatment. You might be more likely to be...
What you need in such a motorhome is quite individual. Because a motorhome holiday doesn't mean you'll be hanging out, or sitting on chairs in front of the motorhome, or setting up a tent. We all have different habits and that's fine. You just have to figure out what your...
I'd say like a regular vacation in a rented apartment. Depends what your habits are. Whether you make a habit of taking your whole pantry with you, or whether you prefer to sample local food. These are already priced quite reasonably in most countries (except the Nordic countries). It's definitely...
Today's modern motorhomes are designed for year-round operation. Most manufacturers offer a so-called winter package for their models. This is an additional package that ensures comfortable and safe motorhoming even in temperatures well below freezing. We use our motorhome all year round. With Knaus we were in the Alps for...
Currently, all motorhomes sold in Europe today are classified as special M1 motorhome-type vehicles, regardless of their weight, length, height or width. "A motorhome is therefore a category M1, not a lorry, regardless of its weight" So you can take it into the city centre and the same rules apply...

A motorhome gas cooker or stove works in a similar way to a gas cooker in the home. Ignition is either automatic by pressing a knob or, in some older models, by using a lighter. When the stove is burning, the vent or one of the windows must be open...
There are 2 types of fridges that are most often installed in motorhomes: a gas fridge, which also runs on 12V or 230V, and an electric fridge, which only runs on 12V. Each type of fridge has the possibility of adjusting the cooling intensity. There are countless models of refrigerators...
