The family’s YouTube channel now has over 3,000 followers. Anna-Karin and Patrik Arnstrand from Alingsås have previously had both a caravan and a motorhome. Today, they own a KABE Imperial 860 LGB, which they use as often as possible. “It’s our rolling summer cottage. Convenient and luxurious with first-class equipment. We don’t think it can get any better than this!” Freedom and mobility Travelling with the motorhome is rest and relaxation from work. It is the opportunity to see new things and places. Most often, little is planned in advance. For AnnaKarin and Patrik, it is freedom and mobility that make motorhoming so enticing. “We love the sea and being close to nature. However, we also appreciate being able to visit towns, cycling around and doing some sightseeing. Motorhomes are immensely flexible and there are masses of good pitches and camping sites, both in the countryside and near city centres,” states Anna-Karin. Youtube To remember the places they visit and the impressions they form, Anna-Karin enjoys shooting videos of the family’s trips, both in Sweden and abroad. When she started posting her videos on YouTube, it was primarily as a means of storing them. “I thought that our now six grown children might sometime think it was fun to see what their parents got up to. However, I didn’t tell them that I’d posted the films. That waited until I suddenly discovered the channel had several hundred followers who seemed to like the content. Our children do too!” Shared interests The attention and the appreciation gave new inspiration and new followers. Currently, the Arnstrands’ YouTube channel has a good 3,000 subscribers and the comments are full of tips and thoughts from other motorhomers sharing their own experiences and recommendations for destinations, pitches and much else. “In our fifties, we suddenly had a new hobby and became YouTubers! Via social channels, we’ve formed a contact network with lots of lovely KABE owners and motorhome voyagers of our own age. Sometimes, some of us get together during a trip. Getting to know new people with shared interests is always great fun,” enthuse Anna-Karin and Patrik. You can follow Arnstrands Husbilsresor on youtube.com. 22 KABE 2 2023
