Coolest Cooler is a portable refrigerator that has probably never existed before. Its creator gained 60,000 supporters on the Internet who donated $13,285,226 in 52 days. This is the best result in the history of Kickstarter so far. On the one hand, you can say - much ado about nothing. After all, there are many coolers on the market and one more model will not make much of a difference. But are you sure?. Coolest Cooler looks quite good, and the stylized inscription refers to the vintage style - i.e. it is supposed to look old-fashioned. The capacity of the refrigerator is 60 liters and there are two compartments inside. But it's not the capacity or interesting style that makes this device stand out the most. What is surprising is its functionality, which goes far beyond the capabilities of an ordinary refrigerator.

The KiraVan is an extreme vehicle, built to accommodate even incredible expeditions. The most surprising, however, is the fact that this camping "monster truck" was designed as a gift for ... a four-year-old girl. This is not the first automotive madness of Bran Ferren , co-owner of Applied Mind, which deals, among other things, with the development of architectural design programs. A few years ago, on the basis of his project, Maximog was created - an unusual off-road vehicle based on the Mercedes Unimog. From the outside, it was distinguished by large wheels and quite strange proportions - the vehicle seemed very tall and narrow at the same time. In relation to the base vehicle, virtually everything has been changed, including all electronics and the suspension, which gained computer control.

KiraVan - the only such gift in the world

Caravan Salon Dusseldorf, probably the world's largest fair related to camping tourism, is already behind us. According to both the organizers and the exhibitors, the event can be considered a great success. The fair in Germany lasted from August 30 to September 7, attracting visitors from all over the world. The organizers had already analyzed their statistics and quickly announced that this year's fair in Dusseldorf is the greatest success in the history of the event. The numbers are really impressive. During eight days, as many as 192,000 visitors passed through the exhibition halls, of which 25,000 were foreign visitors. The exhibitors noticed that there were exceptionally many Asians and Australians among the guests. There were more Europeans than in the previous years, and more Germans came from the south of the country (apparently due to an intense advertising campaign).

Are you going on a journey with a trailer, but you don't have much experience driving a set of vehicles? Read on to what you should pay attention to!. Regardless of whether you intend to tow a caravan or a cargo car with your passenger car, the rules will be the same. First of all, you should check whether the given trailer model can be connected to the car. And it is not only about technical issues such as the presence of a tow bar , but also about legal compliance. In Poland, there are regulations according to which, if a car + trailer combination exceeds the permissible total weight of 3.5 tons, it is treated as a truck, so it must have ViaToll - a device that calculates and collects tolls for driving on Polish roads. It is worth knowing that ViaToll is valid not only on motorways and expressways, but also on many sections of national routes. The full list can be found here: http://www.viatoll.pl/pl/pojazdy-ciezkie/siec-drog .

First time with a trailer

Bogatynia is a typical example of places in the style of "you praise others, you do not know your own, you do not know what you have". The picturesque town is famous for its natural resources, Carbonalia and the festival of lies. The atmospheric wooden houses add to its charm. Recently, it was the fourth anniversary of the flood that caused unimaginable damage in Bogatynia. Almost 1,200 families were injured there. Today the city is booming. Although most associate it with a lignite mine, it is a charming resort with a lot to offer to tourists. Especially thanks to its location - it is located in a place where the borders of three countries meet: Poland, the Czech Republic and Germany.

The subject of this article does not lose its relevance, coming back like a boomerang every vacation, holiday or long weekends. Writing about it is difficult because the theses presented in the text should interest the most those who are interested little or not at all. When we talk about organizing a holiday trip, guardians of dogs, cats, guinea pigs or other pets are divided into those who know everything about it and do not know anything - and they do not mind. The latter, when planning their vacation, take care of what is important to them, i.e. where they will go, how much they will spend and how much fun they will have. The organization of care for a pet left at home is not so important that they devote too much time to it. As a result, the holiday period is filled with information about more abandoned animals year after year. And the problem can be solved so easily ...

Leave without a pet, i.e. a babysitter needed immediately

Manufacturers reveal more models for 2015. Currently, light structures using glass fibers are becoming a standard and other manufacturers include them in their offer. The Fiat Ducato will remain the base for most motorhomes next year, but now in a refreshed version. What's most important in the new Advantage is the new design that uses glass fibers. Due to the fact that the walls are made of XPS, aluminum and polyurethane foam, and the floor and roof are made of GRP , the new Advantage should be more durable and resistant to moisture.

Wide beaches and blue water attract tourists from distant corners of the continent as well as delicious cuisine. Vrsar is located approx. 9 km south of Poreč in western Istria. It has an exceptionally beautiful archipelago, which consists of 18 tiny uninhabited islets with Mediterranean fauna. Those interested can see them up close from a motorboat - they can be rented in the town itself, as well as pedal boats, sailboats and surfboards.

Adria has refreshed the range of Altea caravans. We will look at the smallest of the models in this series, which in Germany costs 15-17 thousand. euro. The smallest Altea, marked with the symbol PH 369, is a compromise proposition, especially worth recommending to a couple who dream of a new caravan, but cannot afford any "fancy" model. Users have only 462 cm of length at their disposal. Including the drawbar , the trailer measures 603 cm . And it just has to be a bit tight at that length, even if there are two people traveling in the caravan. However, the small size also has advantages. The vehicle weighs 1049 kg, which is enough to be towed even by a light car with low power.

Adria Altea PH 369 - a compromise for two

We get up in the morning and realize that the long-awaited moment is coming! Departure to Norway. While we started "planning" the entire trip, fundraising, etc. about six months earlier, something always fell out, disturbed and effectively prevented one hundred percent from planning a trip from A to Z ... which made our trip a huge spontaneous trip :) Hmm, spontaneity? It's our style! Until the last minute, we did not even know the exact date of departure, we booked the ferry several hours before departure, the only thing we knew was the direction of travel. The session at the university, which started quite early for us, the instructor exams, late-night studies and bachelor's exams effectively prevented us from devoting ourselves to a blissful in-depth reading about the attractions and curiosities that Scandinavia hides before us. Our standard day, about a month and a half before departure, looked like this: breakfast -> university -> work -> study until 2:00 am, and Bartek still had to find a moment to bury at Tripciak so that he could safely and without any problems drive along the entire route and complete the new interior development.
