we swedes love our nature and we want to make it easier for people to be able to get out so we have hiking paths everywhere and alot of places to camp and stuff like that.
It's amazing ❤️
While it's not impossible that you saw dolphins there, the porpoise is very common in Swedish waters and look a lot like dolphins. Porpoises sort of tumble above the surface instead of jumping like dolphins can though, which is where it gets its Swedish name "tumlare" meaning "tumbler".
Possibly yeah they do look similar 🙂🐬
Yes, i'm impressed too. Looks absolutely beautiful and so peaceful
We lovin it 😍
First impressions of Sweden are great; water, greenery, peace and tranquility. What's not to love! Looking forward to exploring more of this country through your vlog. Thanks guys! Enjoy and take care ❤
Thank you Bernardette glad you enjoyed it 😊
I've never been there myself, yet it's so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it with us (in Sweden). 👍
Oh no problem 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
He, parking spots like that are absolutely everywhere. So many lakes and so much forest. Hope you have a great time.
Ah thank you ❤️
What you saw in the waters was probably porpoises, they're quite similar to dolphins but WAY more common in the western waters of Sweden. :P
Wow - They look very similar !🐬
It would be nice to have a hybrid fridge, (possible to use gas or electric).
Could run from batteries, when you have to turn off gas.
Could run from the grid, if you park up with a grid connection.
Yeah ours is gas and electric but only on 240v, so no batteries... I think it would drain a lot of power anyway
@@TravelTalesVlogs if it's already cold, it wouldn't be a lot. A normal fridge in a house uses between 100-300 kWh/year, an average at about 10-40 W.
@@TravelTalesVlogs I don't know how much your fridge/freezer would use, or the size of you battery for the inverter. I appreciate that you know better, but don't be fooled by the consumption while running because it's probably off most of the time. (except the inverter needs to handle the peak load)
Sweden is amazing for a roadtrip , enjoy to the fullest ! Take Care !
Thank you Simon ❤️
Karlshamn is an old city which used to be one of southern Sweden's most important ports for naval defense, trade and industry. It's quite a fascinating place once you decide to read up on its history.
Really an interesting place !
Great video guys, certainly somewhere we could visit
Thank you, Sweden is great 🙂 🇸🇪
if you are on the west coast above Gothenburg you should deffinetly try the seafood. most of it is very fresh and sooo good. a couple of staples are the toast Skagen wich i basicly a starter and the Skagenröra that you can have on your breakfast bread, with fish, with some avocado, in a baked potato.. so many options :)
That sounds tasty. Thank you ! 🙂
Skagenröra is made with shrimp,.dill and mayo
dont miss out on vättern, pretty nice near jönköping and huskvarna area, decent view, huskvarna strand is pretty nice because you have a 200m hill to the right, but near piren in the town of jönköping it almost looks like an ocean with a decent view
Thank you Jonathan for your tips 😊
Sweden is a beautiful country and idyllic to drive in. Enjoyed your vlog and the views. I wonder if Holly appreciates how lucky she is to travel to new places all the time?
Thanks Terence 🙂 Sweden is amazing and hope Holly does because she's travelling the world 🐕 😀
Hey C2H!
Thank you for taking me to Sweden ... cos I've never been! Great VLOG - interesting info' & looks so peaceful, so it's somewhere I could definitely go at some point.
The cake you were given by the folks at the lake was obviously scrummy - because we got an "Ohhhh myyyyy Goddddd" from Charlene!!
Drive safe, stay safe & look out for each other. N1S Kev x
Great Kev you're gonna enjoy Sweden with us then 😀 That cake was sooooo good ❤️
@@TravelTalesVlogs Yep, I certainly am Chris... thank you!
Did you see the statue over Karl-Oskar and Christina from the novel “utvandrarna” by Wilhelm Moberg?
In the book they sail to America from Karlshamn.
Yeah I think so😊 not sure if it's the same one but there was a statue of a man and woman in the park near where we had the van !
Great video guys
Thanks so much Simon ❤️
Swedish king is fishing salmon in Mörrum.
Must be good then 😀
is charlene Romanian?
From Malta 🇲🇹 🙂
Greetings from Sweden
Thank you ❤️
Tosca buns are great.
🤤
The blueberrys...you will find them in the forrest but choose the small blueberrys. The big ones are from a diffrent country and taste much less.
Thank you ❤️
The speed-cameras is telling you to relaaaaax, your in Sweden. Here we take it nice and easy. 🙂 Stressing and rushing everywhere isn't good for your health. And also why the speed is slow in the forrest, is to give you a better chance if an moose or Rudolf the reindeer jumps out of the forrest.. And lastly, there are loads of cameras that actually isn't on, but you never know which ones are up and running 😁 P.s I hope you enjoy Sweden.
Great way to look at it 😊 we have been on the look out for moose but haven't seen one yet !
A really nice video 🙂 I have to warn you thou. It is not allowed to publish videos from drones where you can see horison limes in Sweden. Very big fines.
Thank you !
@@TravelTalesVlogsThat's not right. It is permitted to film and photograph with drones, but not protected objects with a photography ban. Also keep in mind that you are collecting personal data, if people can be identified. This means that you should not photograph or film people at close range who do not want to participate.
@@pspsvan65Tumregeln är att du måste få tillstånd innan du publicerar bilder med horisonten.
Also public land needs a permit to be filmed, that why Swedes don’t have security cams. So be respectful (which I think are) ❤
@@PernillaArtistic Not 100% true, fixed cams are not allowed to film without permits. That also includes mounted dashcams etc. But using your phone and film and publish is ok. But not using a drone where you can see faces clearly. Strange i know....
Happy you liked it here!! As a husvagnsägare I also enjoy this traveling lifestyle.
If you need advice or anything I live in Stockholm. ❤
Thank you so much ❤️
They belong to the Dolphin family but they are called Porpoises so not those Dolhins you are used to see, I hope you drove the Swedish westcoast from Gothenburg up to Norway and not straight to Stockholm then Norway like most Van vlog channels.
Hey thanks for your comment, yeah don't think we going into Stockholm but definitely towards Norway. Hope you enjoy the vids 😊
Good evening fron Rhodes🌺
Wonderful!!
Good you please write down the places
Thank you!!
Thank you Diane, glad you enjoyed the video 😊
freedom to roam camp and pick mushroom and berrys(for own use)even on private land as long u leave it better than u found it and respect the nature
Clean lakes everyware to swim in..and endless forests..whats not to like summertime in sweden
Absolutely brilliant 😀
@@TravelTalesVlogs i know many swedes that take the camper out in autumn months to pick blueberrys lingonberrys and mushrooms and especially hunting Swedish chanterelles..
Well done ,We are making the same trip in August what park up did You use in Grenaa.
Amazing 🙂 The park up by the beach was great it's about 2 minutes south of the port. You'll find it on P4N
At what time of the year were you here?
Now 🙂 but this video was a few weeks ago !
Is probably not classed as drinking water. In the winter you can feel its mixed with hotwater... Im in sweden and I havent filled a water bottle from those taps in 10+ years.
Ah thanks for letting us know 😊 we just used it to shower, but good to know !
