Back where it started

Since travel is a bad option and has been for a few months now we have explored the nearest surrounding. We’ve found new places and revisited old favorites. Like this, the exact place that we first slept in a car 4 years ago.

Vanlife Sverige emilia

That’s where it all started, the idea of living vanlife was born. That summer we drove around in our Renault 4 (laban) and we stopped at this place. The feeling of freedom made us build and convert the van that got the name “styrbjörn”, the van that became our rolling home.

We spent a day at the same beach as then, with (almost) the same longboards.

To buy an abandoned house

Sunday, 3 February, 2019, 6:43 PMSweden, Urban exploration
we bought an abandoned house in Sweden and it have been a bit crazy ever since!


As you may know we love to visit abandoned places wherever we go, we are always looking for new cool spots in every country we travel to.

In Italian Liguria the state gives away castles and houses that’s abandoned for free to increase the tourism in small villages. Our first thought was to get one of those in the beautiful Italian riviera... but that might be a project for the future. Instead we desided to find something in Sweden, a base where we can live and work while we are here.

So we drove on all the roads in the Swedish countryside that we could find, we posted adds about our search for an abandoned house on Facebook and got a lot of answers and tips and finally we found Näraby.

This house have been abandoned for about 20 years and it needs a lot of work and love. It will take time and energy but we will make it into that lovely home it once was <3

After buying Näraby the swedish media wrote a lot about it, here are some links

SVT

Expressen

Land


And of course some Criticism ;)

Another vanlife adventure

Friday, 15 December, 2017, 8:49 PMUrban exploration, Sweden

A while ago we took Vilda & Tyra with us to do some urban exploration in Sweden. We went to the abandoned amusement park "fun city".

A long time ago this place was filled with happy kids and family's who enjoyed the rides, the water and the slides.

When we visited the park on a rainy Sunday it was grey, everything was broken and sad, maybe even a bit scary sometimes. But still pretty beautiful!

But the coolest thing we found in the end of our visit; The nature have taken over...

We met lizards, salamanders and frogs... and maybe even a turtle?!
