From time to time, we receive messages on our fanpage with questions about where do we get money for a bus and traveling? I am in a hurry with the answer. No, unfortunately we have not discovered the golden mean and money does not make itself; (The costs of maintaining the Tripciak (insurance, spare parts, equipment, tools) and constantly pampering it for further and further trips to distant regions cost us a lot, and yet you still have to save for fuel, food, entrance tickets, parking lots and toll roads (we try to avoid these, but it is not always possible).

On the Camprest.com Facebook profile, we published a post asking for feedback on taking B96 and B + E driving examinations. This topic provoked our readers to a discussion which is proof of how complex the current system of vehicle categories is. You can read the discussion here . Łukasz Książek was the first to comment - he said, "Today's regulations do not require the B + E license if the permissible total weight of the vehicle does not exceed 3500 kg and the GVM (permissible total weight - editor's note) of the towed vehicle (e.g. a trailer). ) does not exceed the DMC of the towing vehicle. To sum up, the GVM of a set of vehicles, i.e. a car with a trailer, may not exceed 6999 kg and the driving license B alone is sufficient for such a set. ".

The bonfire is not only the focal point of an evening party with friends, providing warmth and a great atmosphere. It can also be used as a cooking area. If we take a barbecue with us when going camping, the only problem is the choice of dishes to be prepared on it. However, if we have the so-called Dutch oven, we can think about organizing an atmospheric evening by the fire, where we will prepare a special meal. The first step in the open-air cooking stage is finding the perfect wood. Hardwood is best for this purpose. If it is not at the campsite itself, it will probably be available at the nearest store. It's a bad idea to cut branches - trying to light a fire with "live" and green wood will end up with a lot of smoke. Apart from releasing many pollutants into the atmosphere, it will spoil such a well-planned evening.

How to properly prepare for a long journey when a child suffering from motion sickness is traveling with us? What to take with you and how to help him without stuffing him with medications?. "Mom, are we still far?" that's not the only thing that can make our journey unpleasant. There is also another - much worse, the more so when it concerns our children. Kinetosis, or motion sickness, is a tormenting condition for both children and adults. Fortunately, there are several effective ways to combat this ailment.

Children and motion sickness

Despite the striped clothing, it looks slim and neat. Despite its resemblance to a bee, it is neither nice nor useful, but its bite is extremely dangerous. We will meet the wasp many times. So similar to the lovable bee and so dangerous. The infamous insect stings extremely painfully, and people allergic to its venom must contact a doctor immediately as their lives are in danger. As you can see, the term "bad as a wasp" has come to be known for a reason. If we're at home, we have more options to quickly reduce the pain of a wasp bite. However, if the encounter with the insect took place at a campsite, the situation is different. When the sting is still under the skin, pull it out with great care. We do not do this with our fingers, but with tweezers. We can also pry the spike with the edge of the card or with a plastic card (e.g. ID card or credit card).

After meeting with OSA

Skiing is an exciting and exhausting sport, especially when we give our best on the slopes. It is worth preparing for it - especially if we are usually not very active. What should you think about when you plan to go skiing for the first time in the season (or for the first time in your life)? Winter sports instructors warn against overloading the body, which may result in a decent soreness the next day. It should be remembered that while skiing, the muscles of the whole body work - not only the legs.

Before you put on your skis, i.e. warming up on the slope

For some, winter is the time they would like to sleep like a bear, for others it is the time when they live more intensely than in summer, especially when they love the snow that squeaks under their boots. In winter, you can observe an increase in the number of patients of plastic clinics who undergo treatments to be beautiful for the holidays . For them, this is the time when you can transform from a duckling to a swan. Regardless of how we intend to spend the winter, it is definitely worth using this time well, and not vegetating prosaically, counting down the days to holidays.

It's a waste of time for diseases!

"End of the tongue for a guide" is an old saying that is still relevant today. Sometimes a request for help results in the interest of a person who does not want to help us at all. Then what?. A holiday trip abroad gives us the opportunity not only to rest and gild our skin with the rays of the sun that warms more than in Poland, but also to buy various kinds of souvenirs. We often want to buy something valuable very cheaply, which is fully understandable - just like the fact that the seller wants to earn as much as possible on the transaction. If we lack knowledge and assertiveness, we will most likely realize that we have just overpaid for a counterfeit, service or item that we did not intend to buy.

Naive like a tourist, or how not to be deceived abroad

Do you think you know how road checks should be carried out? Not all of its principles are obvious. For example, not everyone knows that when giving orders, a policeman can use ... a whistle. After stopping the vehicle for inspection, the policeman must approach the controlled car, and the driver should wait with his hands on the steering wheel and not turn off the engine until then. Almost everyone knows it. However, not all rules are equally known. The very call to stop can be different. The driver may be called to stop, e.g. by a megaphone from a police helicopter! And while performing his duties on the road, the policeman has the right to strengthen his orders with a whistle. Remember, however, that a whistle cannot be the only form of giving any command - an officer may whistle while showing with his hand or with a signal dial ("lollipop") what the driver should do.

What can a policeman (and what not) do during a roadside check?

With each subsequent trip to the campsite, we are wiser about ideas that will make our stay easier. Cosmetic portions, toilet paper and soap tricks - there are tons of ideas. They just need to be discovered. The simplest ideas are the best, but the hardest to come up with. How to put all the things in one backpack that will ensure a pleasant stay without having to carry a dozen or so kilograms on your back? How do I keep the soap clean and dry in my tent? How to protect the toilet paper against moisture?.

Cosmetic camping tips

Holidays are associated with relaxation, warmth, sand and bare feet. Unfortunately, a large group of people is also associated with stress and complexes related to ... bare feet. The title of the article is a bit perverse, because we are dealing with something that we can encounter anywhere, not only on vacation. However, in summer, it does not allow itself to be forgotten and forces the people affected to apply practices aimed at concealing the damage caused by it. What are we talking about? About mycosis, an unpleasant and somewhat embarrassing ailment, considered to be one of the most dangerous modern diseases. And probably rightly so. According to statistics, almost every second Pole suffers from athlete's foot, and every fourth - from onychomycosis.

Unpleasant souvenir from holidays

How to prepare for a trip when a gusty wind blows? It is definitely not worth hurrying then, because nervousness and high speed can only make such a trip more difficult for us. We will do better by accepting the fact that we will reach our destination much later than usual. When winds of 90-100 km / h or more are blowing, the roads get especially dangerous. Then, if possible, it is best to give up driving and leave the car away from poles, trees or other elements that could fall over the car. However, if the wind hit us during the trip or we cannot give up the trip, then we should prepare in advance that we will be going to our destination even twice as long as in favorable weather conditions.
