Roros is called the pearl of the Trondelag. It enjoys a somewhat dark fame of a haunted place, and the atmosphere is added to it by the original wooden buildings. We find them in Norway, close to the Swedish border. There are beautiful and interesting places, and there are also places that combine both of these features. When it comes to Roros, one may wonder if it is beautiful, but no one will deny him originality. It is a mining town located in the region of Norway, which is not one of the most popular tourist destinations - in its middle-eastern part. Despite the fact that it is not a very crowded place, you can get to it without any problems. Tourists going from Trondheim will reach Roros after a 2-2.5-hour drive, while those who wish to come from Oslo will take 4-5 hours.

Outwell is a Danish brand that specializes in the camping industry, and to be more precise, it has products with its logo that can be especially useful when camping. We searched the company's offer to see what interesting it has to offer us, picky users. It looks like a designer, industrial lamp, but is something else. This "lamp" is primarily a 700 W heater. It can be successfully hung in the garden or in the vestibule. Equipped with a halogen heater, the Etna heater unfortunately requires access to a 230 V socket. The advantages of the device are that it heats up quickly and gives odorless heat. Importantly, Etna can be used both outside and inside, so it can also work on a porch or in a large tent.

They call it one of the most beautiful beaches in the Aegean Sea. They say that Cleopatra would not bathe anywhere else if she discovered this place in front of another Turkish beauty, the star of the Turkish Riviera who bears her name. Iztuzu is stunning with her beauty, and reaching her requires a lot of effort. However, it is more than appealing to anyone who devotes the time and energy to get to know this beautiful beach. It extends in one of the greenest areas in Turkey, about 40 km from Dalaman. It is 6 km long and forms a strip separating the Mediterranean Sea from the mouth of the Dalyan River, which flows from a nearby lake, then spills out into a wide delta and flows into the sea by the beach. Iztuzu is wide and sandy, it also has a very gentle descent into the water. In the off-season, it is rather quiet here, so you can relax and enjoy the unique beauty of the area.

If you do not intend to use a caravan in winter, you should spend some time and attention on it before it catches heavy frost and snowfall. Thanks to this, it will serve you better in the summer season. The ideal situation is the possibility of closing the caravan in a garage, preferably heated. However, few people have a garage for a trailer. In practice, the shelter itself can be a luxury, under which the trailer will be protected against snow and ice. However, if you do not have any roofing, you can cover the caravan with a special cover - it is important that it is a special cover for caravans that will be sufficiently airy . Tarpaulins that are impermeable to air should not be used.

The walls of the stronghold against the background of mountain massifs, the lush green of the hills wrapped in ribbons of rivers - this is Georgia, a welcoming and beautiful country, although a bit austere. Tourists can enjoy delicious cuisine and an exciting journey into the past. For many people, Georgia is still too exotic and distant to go there for a short break or a longer vacation. On the other hand, more and more people are interested in its attractions and give up Spanish or Italian beaches in favor of impressive hills resembling the backs of giants. They are not even put off by the fact that Georgian weather can be really capricious and treat tourists with a lashing cold wind. Not to mention the restrictions when planning the route - we will not designate it through the Caucasus due to the closed border crossings with Russia and not very safe breakaway regions that you would have to cross.

Mercedes-Benz and a motorhome? Yes, this noble manufacturer has also introduced two variants of its camping vehicle named after the great traveler - Marco Polo to the Polish sales network. In the past, desktop computers assembled from various components of many companies were very popular. The purchase was such that individual "guts" were selected in the computer store, which were later put together. The problem is that quite randomly connected elements did not always work together perfectly. This is probably one of the reasons why desktops have been replaced by laptops - also made of components from different brands, but assembled together and tested by a specific manufacturer. Okay, but what does this have to do with motorhomes?.

When older people associate a nice-sounding name with the times of the Polish People's Republic, younger ones may wonder in which part of Poland the described city lies.

It is the country's most popular resort.

Malibu is a brand owned by Carthago, famous mainly for the production of fully integrated vehicles. Malibu supplements the collection with the cheapest cars - campers, or campers based on tin buses. Against the background of their bigger brothers, the Malibu vehicles look very modest, although it must be admitted that they make a very good impression from the outside. Based on the new Fiat Ducato, motorhomes attract the eye with aesthetic graphic motifs on the sides and a clear brand name on the radiator grille.

Karlskrona is a charming Swedish city spread over 33 islands in the Blekinge archipelago. A walk on it is an unforgettable experience, because every now and then we find ourselves on a different island. You can eat dinner in one of them, play in the club in the other, and spend the night in another. The most important part of the city is on the island of Trossö, which also has a port with a shipyard. The entrance to it is guarded by two forts with perfect fortifications, after all, in the intention of its founder, King Charles XI, it was to be a powerful sea gate, resistant to attacks by enemy troops. Apparently, the Swedish king consulted the pirates, seeking guidance from them as to the choice of the most strategic place for the navy. He made the right decision - the city that owes its name has never been conquered either from the sea or from the land.

It all started with horses. In 1986, the former ski jumper Stephan Conter founded the company Stephex dealing with breeding horses and renting a riding school. 10 years later, the company began importing luxury livestock vehicles. And in 2009, the first luxury motorhome signed with the STX brand appeared. Today, horses are still the most important thing for the Belgian company Stephex, but horse-powered vehicles have also gained importance. The company offers a very wide range of vans and trucks for transporting animals, with each vehicle being adjusted according to an individual order.

Let's go to Figueres, a city where lived an artist who called himself "Surrealism is me!", Who believed that all Picasso's works are worth less than one of his. Let's visit the museum of Salvador Dali, the genius in love with himself who came up with the Chupa Chups logo. When planning a trip to Spain, it is worth taking a 1- or 2-day trip to Catalonia. There is something absolutely unique here, something that evokes admiration, anxiety, maybe even in some sense disgust, but it certainly will not leave anyone indifferent. In the small town of Figueres, there is a museum of Salvador Dali, the master of surrealism, the father of the "Flaming Giraffe", "Leaking Clocks" and other paintings, where you stand today with a pensive face entitled "What did the poet mean?".

The vast majority of motorhomes are powered by diesel engines. This is for economic reasons. Although today a liter of diesel fuel costs the same as gasoline, diesel engines have a much lower appetite for fuel. But how to take care of a car with such an engine?. A motorhome with a diesel engine can serve us for many years. Very often it turns out that diesel engines can achieve much higher mileage than petrol units. This means that at the mileage where the gasoline engine would have been scrapped, the Diesel is still running and doing well.
