When in 2016 I had the honor of sitting in the Motor Show Awards chapter and presenting the award to Jacek Jaskot (chief designer and constructor of the Globe-Traveler brand) for the Voyager XS motorhome model, I knew this car only from the fair and from conversations with users. Nevertheless, I awarded the award not only because of the high quality and applied solutions, but also for the work that Jacek put into creating a Polish brand, now more and more recognizable and appreciated throughout Europe.

Venice is famous primarily for its unique urban development. In addition, this amazing city is connected by canals with beautiful islands, lying in the area of the Venetian Lagoon. This amazing reservoir is over 80 km long and stretches along the picturesque coast of Veneta. The Venetian Lagoon began to form in the 17th century BC in a swampy environment where the first human settlements appeared. The islands lie in the northeastern part of Italy , between the mainland and the Adriatic Sea. The Venetian Lagoon stretches between two rivers: Sile and Brenta. For millennia, this place was formed by great alpine rivers - Piave, Sile, Brenta and Adige, depositing on the seabed masses of silt and sand brought from the mountains.

It turns out not for the first time that people who want their camper to look ultra-modern inside should look towards Italian manufacturers. Caravans International has just launched a new model with an intelligent energy-saving system, remote communication, and yes - with furniture straight from interior design magazines. Caravans International (the brand is also known as CI ) is the largest Italian manufacturer of motorhomes. His daughter brand - Roller Team - is better known in Poland. Moreover, it is worth noting that the name Triaca was initially reserved for the prototype of the latter brand.

Our most awaited and most demanding, for some almost "journey of a lifetime" began on July 1st. Ready for adventure, we started packing, 30 days, 7 people in one Volkswagen T3 - it was not an easy challenge . Our main luggage was "YELLOW" food, as Norway is one of the most expensive countries in Europe, we wanted to take as much of it as possible. After 2 days of travel, we arrived in Denmark, the town of Hirtshals, from where we had a ferry that docked in Kristiansand, but it turned out that the next one was only 6 hours away! Our time, however, did not last long, we spent it in a very charming place, on a sandy beach, listening to the sound of the sea.

Croatia is primarily rocky and rocky beaches along the Adriatic Sea. Their great advantage is cleanliness and a beautiful, crystal sea. The largest green oasis in the northern Adriatic is the Istrian peninsula - over 35% of its area is covered by forests. In this area, the sea is green and turquoise. Istria, like the whole of Croatia, can pride itself on a centuries-old history. In the past, the Romans, Venetians and even the Habsburgs ruled there. When visiting the peninsula, it is worth seeing the historical remnants of the reign of these powers. The city of Pula with an amphitheater from Roman times is one of the most interesting places in this region. It is worth visiting Poreč , the main attraction of which is the UNESCO-listed Euphrasian Basilica . However, when looking for a picturesque beach , it is best to choose one of the stunning towns on the Adriatic.

There is a perception among people looking for a car that it is much cheaper to buy a used car in Germany. Used car dealers across the Oder river enjoy unflagging success. However, is it justified?

When a car is driven with a heavy load, often bordering on the maximum allowed by a given manufacturer, the suspension must meet special challenges. Taking this into account, well-known manufacturers such as Goldschmitt, Drive Rite, or VB offer exceptionally strong air suspensions, which are intended especially for campers and special vehicles (including ambulances and fire brigade vehicles). The range of vehicles that have to move under heavy loads is - contrary to appearances - not small. The problem applies not only to tourist vehicles, but also to mobile shops and offices, tankers, and technical support vehicles. Such cars often work in various conditions - for example, one day they have to cover a very long distance at a relatively high speed, on another day they travel on holes, potholes or even dirt roads. With such vehicles in mind, Elcamp from Krakow installs high-class air suspensions.

The central part of the country, where Tuscany is located, is considered one of the most beautiful regions of Italy. Characteristic for this region are green, beautiful hills famous for vineyards and olive groves. It is in the Tuscan sun that the best grapes and olives ripen, the taste and aroma of which can be found in the local fine wines and excellent oils known all over the world. Tuscany is one of the oldest wine regions in the world. The Etruscans developed agriculture and viticulture in these areas. Then the local land was adapted by the Greeks who came here with their own seedlings. These areas were also under the rule of the Romans, who built a network of roads enabling trade with other regions and countries.

Oil and wine - the essence of Tuscany

The southwestern part of Italian Tuscany is occupied by the Maremma coastal plain. Its originally swampy area, stretching from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Montalcino hills, was transformed into an agricultural region as a result of drainage works carried out in the 20th century. The main city of the lowland is Grosseto. There are also tourist resorts worth seeing - Marina di Grosseto, Principina a Mare, Castiglione della Pescaia, Punta Ala and Punta Talamone. The Maremma region is a charming and diverse landscape, with a 130-kilometer coastline with beaches, pine forests, stone shores and numerous coves that serve as tourist marinas . This region is also distinguished by its great historical value - you can find plenty of archaeological sites dating back to the times of ancient Rome.
