Slovenia is one of the least known and still relatively rarely visited Alpine countries. It is small, even intimate, and from its capital - Ljubljana - you can get to the other end of the country in just a few hours. Holidays in Slovenia are, above all, an encounter with unbridled mountain nature and ancient history, firmly rooted to this day in the local tradition. The first thing that catches your eye after landing or arriving in Ljubljana is the surprising contrast between history and modernity at almost every step. The streets of the old town that run in all directions are lined with modern buildings - no wonder, despite the rich history dating back several thousand years, Slovenia is today a rapidly developing European country. So, if we are planning to spend our next vacation in Slovenia, it is worth visiting places that will allow us to touch both the fascinating culture of this country and come face to face with wild nature.

The new model of the SpaceCamper brand called Light-Open will pleasantly surprise people who are primarily looking for smart solutions in a motorhome. Although the Volskwagen T6 is not a giant, it has quite a lot of camping equipment on board. However, it is not about the quantity ... While in semi-integrated motorhomes it is more and more difficult for manufacturers to go beyond the developed standards (which is why their vehicles differ less and less), in the case of motorhomes, designers are still showing off their creativity . Organizing a small space in such a way as to enable a comfortable rest for a family of 4 is a real challenge, but it seems that the German SpaceCamper has managed to cope with it.

Alicante is a Spanish province that attracts millions of tourists every year. People from different countries come here tempted by the vision of relaxing on the golden sand of beaches grazed by turquoise water. It is also eagerly visited by those in love, who are waiting for a lot of charming nooks and hidden coves. But with all this, Alicante also has something else to offer, equally attractive. It is difficult to say which of the beaches of this part of the coast should be crowned with the most beautiful. La Granadella , located in the northern part of the Costa Blanca, twice awarded the title of the most magnificent beach in Spain, can certainly stand in the competition. Rocky, yet popular among sunbathers. Diving and snorkeling enthusiasts also like it - the water is not only warm, but also crystal clear, which makes it easy to see shoals of colorful fish sneaking over the sea grass. In summer, the beach is crowded, so it's best to go there in the morning to be able to count on a vacancy. In the morning, it is also worth going to Levante beach - getting off early in the morning will reward you with a wonderful sunrise that can be admired there. It is a beach popular with fans of water skiing, sailing and paragliding. Together with Benidorm's second beach, Poniente , it enjoys a warm microclimate provided by the mountains, protecting the bay from cold wind blows. Families with children like El Portet , a beach in Moraira, hidden in a cove sheltered by cliffs. You can see Peñon de Ifach, a characteristic rock rising out of the water near the Calpe resort. The water here is calm, clear and joyfully blue, so children can splash safely in it. The same is true of Santa Pola , a beach located next to traditional fisheries. Its bars and restaurants are famous for their fish dishes.

When traveling to Masuria, you will have an amazing adventure, meeting not only interesting and beautiful nature at any time of the year, but also a land rich in its history, full of monuments and undiscovered secrets. Mikołajki, called the Polish Venice, is one of the most attractive tourist places in the region, mainly due to its location, between Lake Mikołajskie and Tajty, on the route of the Great Masurian Lakes. In the summer you can hear traditional shanties here. Due to the fact that it is one of the main shipping junctions, you can come across many amazing sailing stories here. The location between Ryn and Pisz, Giżycko and Ruciana Nida makes this seemingly small town extremely "bustling" in the season. Hence the rich tourist offer where everyone will find something for themselves.

It must be amazing - to stand on the shore of the European land, knowing that you are standing in front of a huge ocean, immeasurable amounts of water, and the nearest dry land behind it is the American continent stretching far and wide. This water is the Atlantic Ocean, and the European land on which we stand is the rocky cape Pointe du Raz, located in Brittany, in the north-west of France. Brittany is a picturesque region full of romance, a bit mysterious and raw. Capricious when it comes to weather. With a Catholic tradition deeply rooted in history and culture - pilgrimages, indulgences, a large number of regional saints, countless chapels and stone roadside crosses, as well as calvaries (sculptures carved in stone). Holidays in Brittany will be a great time for lovers of the countryside and green areas (including pastures), party people may be rather bored. There are many tiny towns in the region that look as if time had stopped there. Tourists' eyes glide with pleasure over stone houses decorated with flowers hanging from balconies and window sills.

This year's novelty from the Burstner brand is ... a compact, semi-integrated camper with an alcove. Its appearance in the offer of the German manufacturer is the best proof that the twilight of motorhomes with a fixed bedroom over the heads of the driver and passenger has not yet come. On the one hand, there is a growing interest in motorhomes, and on the other - motorhomes with fold-down beds. From year to year, however, there are less and less traditional tourist cars with an alcove. Now, however, lovers of such vehicles are given a new reason to be pleased.

When we think of cameras, some of the biggest brands usually come to mind. Nikon certainly appears among them. One of the most influential manufacturers of photographic equipment in the world. In this article, we will look at the history of this company and find out why it is still worth using this equipment. The Nikon company was founded in 1927 in Tokyo. It was then that three small optical factories decided to join forces and enter the photographic market together. The first name of the company was Nippon Kogaku Kogoyo, in Polish it means the same as a Japanese optical glass manufacturer from Tokyo. The name perfectly showed the assortment of the company at that time. They were mainly spotting scopes, microscopes and binoculars. The production of photographic lenses was started a little later. In 1946, work on the first model of the camera began, and in 1948 the Nikon I went on sale. It quickly turned out that the products offered by the Japanese brand were not only as good as those from European producers, but even exceeded them in terms of quality. In the 1950s, Nikon equipment crossed the borders of Japan for the first time and hit the world market. Interestingly, the Korean war contributed to this. War correspondents went to Tokyo to repair or maintain their equipment. It was there that they had the opportunity to see Nikon products for the first time. When they noticed that their designs were superior to well-known German brands, they quickly started using Japanese lenses. Thanks to the American press, information spread around the world and Nikon was gaining more and more popularity. To Mark's reputation, it was appreciated by NASA, and the Nikon F camera model was a fixture in American spacecraft.

For the 2016/2017 season, Laika has prepared two new versions of its motorhomes. Although the Italian brand also offers fully integrated vehicles, the new products concern semi-integrated vehicles without alcoves, i.e. those that may be of interest to the largest group of customers. The Kreos model with a lowered roof (i.e. without an alcove) is available in seven variants. The latest one is called 3009 and is probably the most important novelty in Laika's 2017 offer . Although it is difficult to talk about a revolution in this case, this model can count on the interest of buyers.
