A dozen or so days ago I had the opportunity to test a Caravans International camper in the version with an alcove. The Elliot 98 model was made available for testing by Camper Planet from Bielsko Biała, a dealer of vehicles of this Italian brand. We described the entire Elliot series more generally in the CI Elliot article - Ford Transit for your holidays . Since the new Ford Transit was created and companies building campers started using its chassis in the production of new models, I heard only about the advantages of this solution, so I wanted to test it even more. I must also add that I like the silhouette of the Ford Transit and its large grill much more than the common Fiat Ducato. Below I described my impressions from using this vehicle for several days.

Smartphone failure happens when you need it most. It often happens while traveling, making it impossible to contact family and friends, and to call for help when the need arises. No wonder travelers want to fix the fault as quickly as possible and regain contact with the world. The policy will help?. The cost of repairing a smartphone is high regardless of where its owner is located. In Poland, the most common repair, i.e. replacement of the display, costs even several hundred zlotys. Abroad, sometimes you pay even more for the same service, if you take into account the additional costs associated with the purchase of foreign currency.

Wingamm is an experienced manufacturer of motorhomes and caravans, which stands out from other manufacturers. And this is because the camping part in each vehicle is made of fiberglass, in addition to one cast. So there are no joints between the roof and the walls. The first look at any Wingamm motorhome is enough to see that it is not a touring vehicle like any other. Rounded lines and a slightly swollen living area, protruding beyond the outline of the cabin, are the characteristic features of these vehicles being built in Italy.

North Jutland is a region where we come across a great deal of evidence that a drop is boring the rock. Or - more appropriately to the situation - that the sand is boring the land. Slowly, slowly, it moves forward for years, relentlessly taking what it wants. Of course, people try to fight it by creating blockages of vegetation, but we can find more than one example that sand has won a lot by consistent action. The golden hero of our story is not very famous in the north of Denmark. It choked down the meadows and swallowed up many buildings, including churches. After Den Tilsandede Kirke (Church under the sand), only the tower remained, now serving as a vantage point. A similar fate befell the Rubjerg Knude lighthouse, the highest part of the cliff, in the immediate vicinity of Lønstrup. On the west coast, the Råbjerg Mile dune was born, an inquisitive creature that can travel about 15 meters a year. Someone who has come on vacation to Denmark for the second time may be really surprised by how quickly the landscape changes due to sand dune wandering. The area is covered with grass and sea buckthorn, among the sand there are also remnants of bunkers from World War II. The Danish painter and poet Holger Drachmann fell in love with the local landscape. He stole his heart so much that he wished to be buried here - while walking in the dunes they will come across his tomb.

Each journey in a motorhome or caravan requires specific hygiene measures. Fortunately, modern motorhomes are called houses on wheels for a reason. Like traditional houses, they provide us with constant access to amenities such as a shower or a toilet. Some motorhomes and caravans have solutions installed in the set, others - require prior retrofitting of the vehicle before the trip. With a wide selection of camping accessories available in online stores, it has never been so easy to prepare your vehicle for even the longest journey. What equipment to invest in to enjoy the possibility of taking care of hygiene while traveling? We advise!

Marketing at the highest level - this is how you can briefly define the envelope built for years by Carthago, a manufacturer that puts its products in competition with representatives of premium brands (or at least the upper middle class). Sizable stands at major fairs, first places in the polls for the best camping vehicles of the most widely read German magazines - all of this is to make the user's heart beat faster at the sight of a cream colossus with a red stamp. Are the advantages widely advertised by the brand, such as high level of workmanship and attention to detail, really confirmed? We invite you to the report, or rather the conclusions of the six-month test, mainly in autumn, winter and early spring conditions, which the Carthago CHIC C-LINE generation II was subjected to, namely version 4.8 from 2016. The test covered a dozen or so trips, including a long foreign route, which allowed to reach a total distance of 4,500 km.
