It turns out that the slogan "live in the car" can be understood in many different ways. For Austrian Markus Voglreiter, it did not mean moving to a camper, but building a house that would resemble a car. Looking at the pictures of this house, you get the impression that it is a funny, colorful toy. Only a look at the buildings in the background makes us realize how big this car is. It is a really large house, divided into two apartments - for parents and their children. The erection of such a building was not easy for many reasons. First, it was necessary to obtain approval for the implementation of such a bold architectural vision. Secondly, the entire building had to comply with the construction law. Thirdly, the author of this work wanted to create an object not only visually interesting, but also having good insulation and an effective heating system, which is quite a challenge.

Monuments can be not only sacred buildings or huge palaces that remember the times of lavish parties. A hospital can also be a monument on a global scale, and such an attraction is waiting for tourists in Kuks. There are many tiny, even microscopic places in the world famous for their enormous (literally and figuratively) attractions. You don't have to look far for an example - in Poland one such place is Święta Lipka, to which pilgrimages were made already in the 15th century. The village, situated in the beautiful surroundings of forests, houses agritourism farms, guest houses and hotels, but alone it has only a few hundred inhabitants.

The Czech manufacturer's new tires for the 2014 summer season are Barum Bravuris 3HM tires. Designed for mid- and higher-class passenger cars. Such a wide range of applications is possible thanks to production in a large number of sizes. The basic element in the tire that ensures driving comfort and safety is, of course, the asymmetric tread. Because the tire's construction is very advanced, it has excellent performance on every type of surface that can be found in summer. This construction is also responsible for other parameters of the tire, which the manufacturer already communicates in the name of the tire (High Mileage). Thanks to special technologies that were involved in the construction of Barum Bravius 3HM, these tires are characterized by really long mileage. This feature is primarily due to the modern mixture from which it is made. This is what makes the tire extremely durable, i.e. it wears out slowly and therefore lasts longer. A significant advantage of this tire model is that it has the same level of performance throughout the entire period of use.

Can it be easier to unfold and fold the tents? Heimplanet proves that it is. The tent can be set up in just a few minutes! In addition, such a temporary home does not have to look boring. The biggest problem with traditional tents is that they have to be folded up and down, which often takes a lot of time for untrained people. As a result, the desired trip begins with an experience that will surely not remain a pleasant holiday memory. However, life can be easier, as evidenced by an interesting solution proposed by the German company Heimplanet. Recently, it presented a tent dedicated to a specific car model - Audi A3 Quattro .

Gas, coal or maybe electric? What grill to buy, how much to spend on it and what to expect? Making the right decision is not so easy - the purchase should be carefully thought out. What to consider when buying a grill? The price, type of fuel, speed of grilling or maybe the aroma and taste of the dishes obtained on it? Contrary to appearances, these are not such easy questions as experienced grilling enthusiasts may think. Which grill we choose depends on several factors. If the price is one of the most important for us, the question is whether we plan to grill often or occasionally. At first glance, charcoal grills are cheaper than gas grills , but after reasonable bills it may turn out otherwise. The first option (frequent and intensive grilling) with a charcoal grill will quickly cease to be so profitable, because coal is a more expensive fuel than gas and we will use more of it, and therefore we will spend more. In this case, it will be more advantageous to buy a gas grill, which will prove to be more economical in the long run. If, on the other hand, we intend to grill "on holiday", the coal version will suffice.

Architecture student at the University of Minnesota, Hank Butitta, did not want to design something that would never be realized. Instead of creating virtual concepts, he turned an old bus into a mobile apartment. He wanted to experience the impact of his work on life, to test the invented solutions in everyday practice. This is also how he approached the subject of his diploma thesis. He and his brother and friends decided to turn a ramshackle school bus into a house on wheels - the kind we've seen in American movies.

The charming resort of Albenga, nicknamed the city of a hundred towers, is located in the Italian region of Liguria. Once a Roman port, today it is a seaside beach popular with families with children. It tempts with an ancient old town and delicious cuisine. Albenga is a small town in the northern Italian province of Savona. As a famous bathing resort of the Italian Riviera, it enjoys considerable interest among tourists from various countries, not only from Europe. In antiquity, it was a Roman port - unfortunately, few traces of its former glory have survived to this day.

Do you know this annoying feeling that you are just going on a dream vacation and you have forgotten something very important? Preparing a holiday essentials in the form of a clear list will certainly help in avoiding nervousness. There is probably no person who, before going on vacation, would not think a few (teenagers) times about what she needs, what will be useful, and what will only take up space in a suitcase unnecessarily. And if it is, we can admire her composure. The average vacationer repackages his luggage several times and realizes at least once that he has stuffed something to the bottom of the backpack that he needs very much before setting off on a trip. It is quite possible that, gritting his teeth in anger, he will unpack his backpack to see that he has hidden the necessary thing elsewhere. As a result, instead of enjoying the trip, he will lose a lot of nerves.

Not everything that is intended to be disposable has to be disposable. Coca-Cola is conducting a campaign to raise awareness that plastic bottles can be used for many different purposes. Maybe it's worth thinking about it in the context of camping?. The campaign, invented by the advertising agency Ogilvy and Mather, is carried out in Vietnam and Thailand. However, the manufacturer of the popular drink plans to expand the campaign to all of Asia. As part of the Coca-Cola 2ndLives project, 40,000 special caps will be distributed, which allow you to transform used bottles into items with new uses .

The Americans decided to take a lesson from Europeans for whom a modern motorhome is almost always based on the Fiat Ducato. I wonder if the US will adopt a "baby" based on a car that is called Ram ProMaster overseas. We do not know how much this car is likely to become popular in America. Winnebago Trend - because this is what a motorhome is called - is a good example of how different thinking about motorhomes in Europe and the United States is. The differences can be seen from the outside - for example, in European motorhomes we will not find split, sliding side windows , and the bodies usually have less various embossments.
