Picturesque and still rarely visited Abruzzo is one of the most beautiful and worth visiting corners of the Apennine Peninsula. It may not be as famous as its northern neighbor - the province of Marche, but perhaps due to the fact that it has never been on the main tourist route, it still remains one of the more virgin corners of this part of Europe. Mighty mountain peaks reaching almost 3000 meters above sea level, vast valleys and towns and villages "squeezed" into them, where life has its own rhythm for hundreds of years ... yes, Abruzzo, although little known, is certainly a real jewel of Italy. A holiday in Abruzzo is a great adventure for a family who likes to spend time actively - because more than a third of the region is occupied by a national park, we can be sure that the encounters with wildlife will be amazing for sure. In addition, the stunning coastline, which is Abruzzo's 'hidden treasure', may be the best retreat away from the crowds that are besieging Bari's beaches right now ...

As you know, driving on the motorway is fast and comfortable, but often boring and monotonous. How not to get tired while traveling for many hours? Traveling on the highway is the most efficient & nbsp; of the ways of moving when it comes to long distances. A large number of belts allows you to maintain an average speed and an even pace. Highways are considered to be the safest type of road. We must remember about several important aspects that translate into safe and economical driving. It is extremely boring during exhausting and monotonous routes. Uniform noise of tires and air flowing around the vehicle, constant speed become extremely tiring in the perspective of several hours. The situation is exacerbated if we have a very comfortable car. Most European routes have stripes painted with a special technique, thanks to which they generate a clear noise after hitting them. Excessive speed is a danger on long journeys in Europe or Poland. If we want to travel safely, we should know how to maintain concentration during a several-hour journey. Sooner or later, we'll get sleepy. How to prevent it?.

Veneto - all that is most beautiful

We are busy every day, so let's take a break, at least on vacation. It does not always have to be an active holiday. Sometimes it's just good to just sit back and spend some time just lazing around. Speaking of convenience, however, we must bring up the topic of… chairs!. At the campsite, it is good to sit in the shade (e.g. at a barbecue) or in the sun (sunbathing), but the implementation of similar plans will not be possible if we do not have enough to sit on. That is why it is worth considering choosing the right chair now.

Sicily, known as the Island of the Sun, is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. Its south-west part is only 100 km from the coast of Africa. The landscape is more hilly and mountainous with steep shores. What to see in this part of Sicily? What dishes characteristic of this largest region of Italy are worth trying? We invite you to read!. Let's start with Ragusa, which is one of the main cities of the southern part of Sicily. The main attractions of visiting Ragusa should be the valuable baroque monuments of sacred art - the Cathedral of San Giovanni, the Duomo si dan Giorgio and the Church of San Giuseppe. Apart from them, take a stroll through the historic city center, full of narrow streets that are climatically inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Interestingly, the city was almost completely destroyed during an earthquake in the 17th century, and after rebuilding it was divided into two parts - Ragusa Superiore and Ragusa Ibla - the latter is particularly interesting due to the romantic atmosphere among quiet alleys with a Baroque history in the background. Another point of family holidays in Sicily - one of the most important cities of the ancient world. It is worth seeing the cathedral, behind the facade of which is the temple of Athena from the 5th century BC. Then you can check out the city of olives and almonds, or Noto. From the monuments you will see the cathedral with two twin towers and the Church of Santa Chiara. In turn, 50 km from Marsala you will find excavations in Selinunte - to this day most of them are hidden in the ground. The last, but equally important, stop should be Agrigento with its famous Valley of the Temples. There is also a large port nearby, from which the ships on the Pelagie Island - Lampedusa and Linosa depart.

Visiting the south of Sicily

Whenever the picnic is approaching, and with it the holiday season, ladies visit solariums and salons with bathing suits, and gentlemen? The gentlemen are browsing the garage: spare battery, rope winch, shovel? What can be useful, and what will for sure only clutter up the space?. A motorhome is not a rally car, but the principle of completing the equipment should be the same. What route - such equipment. So we always start with the analysis of the route as well as the destination itself. Something else will be useful in the mountains and something else at the seaside. If, on the other hand, you are going to get to the seaside cliff by mountain roads, and on the way back to visit cousins on the plain, it is worth considering every possibility. Of course, there are universal devices that are always worth having, regardless of latitude, such as a halogen lamp or a powerful flashlight, a cable winch or a jack.

What do you need a rope winch for in a motorhome?

The Italian province of Salerno is famous for its huge attractions - one of the most important archaeological parks in Europe. Today, Paestum is a district of the Campanian city of Capaccio, while in the distant past it was a Greek colony of the city of Sybaris. The ruins of the settlement were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998. When you are in Salerno, you simply have to visit them. The more so because for only centuries they remained in oblivion, reappearing to the world only in the 18th century.
