The Italian province of Terni delights with the beauty of its waterfalls and streams and the lush green forests. Its heart is the city of the same name, known as the birthplace of Saint Valentine. For some, the first association with the "city of lovers" will probably be Paris, for others Verona. Meanwhile, this is the name of the Italian town in the Umbria region of Terni. The capital of the province bearing the same name was famous, among other things, for the fact that the patron saint of lovers - Saint Valentine - comes from it.

The offer of producers of tourist equipment changes with each subsequent season. Companies introduce more and more interesting models, configurations and equipment options to their price lists. This does not mean, however, that the proposals that have been known for years go by the wayside. When browsing the catalog of one of the most popular German manufacturers - Hobby - the Siesta Alkoven model attracts attention, which is quite a reasonable proposition on the market. Not every caravanner has the same needs and expectations for a motorhome. Some of us are fine with a budget, fully integrated motorhome. Others need something more spacious. From the outside, Hobby Siesta Alkoven looks like any other motorhome of its class - the bodywork based on the Fiat Ducato chassis is enriched with interesting stickers . Powerful rear-view mirrors turn out to be very useful while driving, and the reversing sensors have also found a significant use. When choosing a motorhome with an extensive alcove, we must take into account the huge air resistance it generates, because they translate into diesel fuel consumption . Therefore, it is worth considering ordering one of the more powerful engines from the offer, because it will make driving much more pleasant.

Both those who want to recharge their batteries in nature and those who prefer to sit at a table over a glass of beer and spend time with friends will be satisfied with a trip to Jičín, Czech Republic. Kudowa-Zdrój is less than 75 km away. The days are getting longer, the weather is getting nicer, so we begin to timidly plan the first short trips - even for the weekend. There is no shortage of ideas, especially when we consider places located in beautiful surroundings, and at the same time providing entertainment for lovers of typically urban attractions. The Czech Jicin (Jičín) is a proposition worth considering when planning such a trip. It meets the criteria of a city with a wide range of cultural events and a center in a beautiful location. It is called the gate to the Bohemian Paradise.

When the family has more people than the parents and two children, trips can be problematic. How to organize such a vacation? Where to store your luggage? How to watch over three or four children? Wait a minute ... What if you decide to have a trailer with six berths?. Most popular caravans provide four sleeping places. There are also many options for couples without children - two sleeping places in the caravan allow you to relax without giving up free space. However, no matter how we advertise the advantages of caravans with a small number of beds, we will not convince families with children. A family of five or six is able to forgo many amenities in exchange for additional sleeping places .

For a large group of drivers who are enthusiasts of caravanning, the most important element in a passenger car is safety . Undoubtedly, Volvo is a brand famous for its great concern for passive and active safety . The Swedish manufacturer has been operating under the tutelage of the Chinese owner for several years, which has in no way affected the quality of the cars it produces. The Volvo model range has grown considerably over the past few years, with the XC60 being the most popular model . This compact SUV also remains the most popular car in the premium segment in Poland.

Every year at the end of July, a unique procession takes place in Liguria. The divers taking part in it lay a wreath at the monument standing on the seabed. In it, they sanctify the patron saint of sailors and divers - Christ of the Abyss. The statues of Christ stand in several places around the world, being a symbol of the city that created them. They look at the area from the tops of the hills, and also ... from under the water surface. One of them rests on the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, between Camogli and Portofino, about 30 km east of Genoa. It is called Il Cristo degli Abissi (Christ of the Abyss). It is a 2.5-meter bronze sculpture by Guido Galletti, depicting the Savior with his arms raised.

The British brand Lunar has been involved in caravanning for over 45 years. The company started with the production of caravans, but in our opinion today it is much more distinguished on the market by interesting models of motorhomes . Lunar can surprise, which he proved a few years ago by launching a motorhome based on the Nissan NV200 Combi (we wrote about it here: Lunar Vacanza - for holidays and shopping ). This is one of the few, if not the only example in the world, of using this model in caravanning on a large scale.

The largest amusement park in Spain is located just off Salou, a resort loved by water sports enthusiasts and families with children. The resort full of attractions has for years attracted tourists to the Costa Dorada - not only the British, encouraged by the proximity of the airport. A dozen or so kilometers from Tarragona and several dozen from Barcelona is Salou, by many called the tourist capital of the Gold Coast. It does not seem exaggerated to call it the pearl of the Costa Dorada, especially when you look at the number of shops and shops, restaurants and hotels that thrive in the resort. When we add to this the pride of the town - the beautiful Playa de Llevant, approx. 1200 meters long and approx. 70 meters wide - multimedia fountains where crowds stand with open mouths and great conditions for sports (not only water sports), we will understand why Salou is so crowded.

Auto-Sleepers gives customers something they love: variety. The offer of this British company includes both tourist versions of the Mercedes Vito, slightly larger motorhomes based on Peugeot and Volkswagen, as well as "real" mid-range motorhomes. Although the Auto-Sleepers brand is virtually unknown in our country, its origins date back to 1961, when a British family converted a Morris delivery truck into a car that was to prove itself during a trip to France. And because products created out of passion usually work best, the amateur campervan aroused great interest and prompted its creators to remake more cars - this time for sale.
