    Hi. Sweden is fabulous. I need to come back to Sweden . I once drove a “Rock & Roll “ sleeper coach from Hamburg to Oslo, and I remember the fantastic scenery up to the Norwegian bridge where you are thousands of feet ( meters ) in the air looking at all to see

      Yes, we have a couple more videos with Balthazar planned in the future, but very soon we will run out of that material and have to continue filming without him. The Northern lights is a good goal and dream. Then, if you decided to visit Scandinavia again, you could go in late August-September, while it’s still warm but the nights are clear and dark, so you can see the lights. Plus you get to pick mushrooms too.😁

    What would your advice be for someone who dreams of van life in Sweden?

    • @Beelzebus
      @Beelzebus  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Start by getting a vehicle that you feel could be your first van/adventure car and start traveling and get a feel for it. 🤗
      Remember that your first vehicle doesn´t have to be perfect so if you don´t want to spend a lot of time on perfecting it don´t because as you travel in it you will learn what you want/need and it´s hard to get everything right the first time so don´t get hung up on building the perfect van at once. Instead focus on getting a good vehicle and do a through maintenance so you can trust it and maybe make sure you have a good insurance so you don´t have to worry about a breakdown and can enjoy the journey instead of worrying. Plan a short first trip as a test and just go exploring! Hope this helped that´s what we did when we started traveling 🤗👍
      Hope to see you one the road one day! drive safe!

    Hi guys. This is a great video and your country is incredibly beautiful! I wanted to ask. If I traveled to Sweden for work and received a resident and working permit, would I be able to ride around and park my motorhome as a non-citizen? I would not want to break any Swedish laws. Also, if I was to get an apartment, where would I park the motorhome? Are there laws against having a motorhome near your dwelling due to the roads being smaller than the roads here in American? I'd appreciate any help you two could provide. Thank you for your time and great videos.

      Hi Noah! Yes it´s allowed for anyone in Sweden to do so.👍 as long as you adhere to the allemansrätten which usually means that you should move the vehicle every 24 hours if not allowed to stay longer. About parking, most of the places you´re allowed to park a motorhome it doesn´t matter if it´s close to your apartment. The roads might be smaller but they are more than enough for most vehicles even motorhomes.👍🤗 I hope this help you somewhat or is there anything else you wonder about? 🤗
