According to the majority of producers of both passenger cars and campers, the prizes awarded by users and readers of trade magazines are of great importance and value. They are created on the basis of long-term observations, the use of a given equipment - in the case of journalists, there is no such in-depth knowledge of the vehicle and its advantages. No wonder that the Italian concern Fiat has once again received a prestigious award at the recently concluded CMT tourism fair in Stuttgart. For the eighth time in a row, the readers of the Promobil magazine decided that it was Fiat Ducato that deserves the title of "The best base for motorhome development" . What's more - the Italian delivery truck was unmatched in eight out of ten categories , thanks to which it won the competition without any problems. The award was officially presented during the fair.

One of the most important events in the caravanning industry is the fair, taking place, among others, in Stuttgart. The January CMT fair was visited by many leading companies offering campers, caravans and tourist equipment. Among the presented novelties, one of the models of the German brand deserves more attention. The Bavarian company Knaus at its exhibition stand showed a wider audience a new product - Boxlife Van Range. The owners of the Knaus company, in response to the huge interest of customers in compact motorhomes, expanded their model range. The new Boxlife line is designed to meet the constantly growing market expectations. The catalog will include three interior layouts to choose from: 540 MQ, 600 MQ and 630 MQ ME , which allow, despite the small available space, to find sufficient usable space for 3-4 travelers . Boxlife, like most similar constructions on the market, was built on the basis of Fiat Ducato in a built-up version. The German manufacturer only slightly changed its exterior, installing a new bumper and contrasting stickers - of course, the customer will have a choice of numerous designs and color variations . Among the elements that distinguish our motorhome from the regular Ducato, there are also numerous tinted and tilt windows, a skylight, and vents that reveal the special purpose of the vehicle.

At the point where the borders of three countries meet: Italy, Austria and Slovenia, there is the Planica ski jumping facility. It was here that Adam Małysz took the Crystal Ball four times, and Kamil Stoch jumped the farthest of all Poles (in 2011, 226 meters). Planica is located in the Julian Alps, hiding in the shadow of the two-thousanders called Ponce, which is why it is sometimes also called the Valley of Ponce. It is famous for the largest cyclical sports event in Slovenia - the world cup competition in men's alpine skiing. The Letalnica (ski flying hill) located here is the second largest ski jumping hill in the world. Recently rebuilt, on March 20-22, 2015 it will again host world-renowned jumpers.

Every year, caravanning attracts an increasing number of enthusiasts of spending their free time actively - without any established patterns. Unfortunately, for a very large group, purchasing a brand new camper or trailer turns out to be an investment beyond their financial capabilities. Of course, we can freely use camping equipment rentals, but nothing can replace our own home on four wheels. Taking advantage of the secondary market, full of various offers from Poland and abroad , costs several times less . Finding a copy at a convenient price should not be a major problem. Unfortunately, not every motorist wants to buy a second-hand camper for fear of poor technical condition or numerous faults.

There are people who love to travel because of the countless opportunities to make new friends, meet new people. There are also those who would like to wander the world alone, because what matters to them is only contact with nature. The latter would be delighted with Easter Island - the second inhabited island in the world, the second most remote from human clusters. In its solitude, it is second only to the islands of Tristan da Cunha. A trip to the homeland of the Rapa Nui people is a real challenge. Only one airline, Chilean LAN, reaches Easter Island, so it is fully understandable that it is impossible to spend a few days' holiday here. In order not to feel unsatisfied, you should devote much more time to the island, made famous by the government of great heads.

Probably everyone is aware of the considerable costs that are associated with the implementation of certain passions and hobbies. Caravanning, as you know, needs considerable funds - the purchase, operation and possible repairs of campers and caravans consume significant amounts each year.
