Most of us associate appetizing golden skin with holidays and beautiful weather. However, it is not uncommon for us to come back from vacation with painful burns and our skin starts to peel off. Where did we go wrong?. Holidays are fast approaching, and thus the time of holidays and trips. Many of us already see ourselves with the eyes of our imagination on the beach, where we blissfully expose ourselves to the sun's rays. But you have to remember that sunbathing is one of the things you should do wisely. Otherwise, the skin will quickly take revenge on us for neglect - it will burn and hurt, blisters and erythema will appear on it.

Dogs are killed on a Scottish bridge. For unknown reasons, they jump straight into the abyss. Is it the work of strange powers? Or maybe just an instinct and the pursuit of the smell of rodents? To this day, scientists are struggling to solve this mystery. There are many strange, mysterious and a bit scary places in Scotland. Some of them owed their fame to the amazing events that took place there, and some were artificially promoted by the local media. One of such dark spots on the Scottish map is Overtoun House. This is a 19th-century manor house in West Dunbartonshire, standing on a hill by the River Clyde. It is located about 2 km from the small town of Milton and 3 km from the city of Dumbarton.

Warwick XL is a motorhome of the British brand Auto-Sleepers. The base in this case is the Peugeot Boxer in the version with a length of 636 cm. In Great Britain, the car costs just over 49 thousand. pounds. Warwick XL is one of the 7 variants of motorhomes based on the Boxer model. Customers can choose vehicles of various lengths and different interior layouts. However, it is the Warwick XL, updated for 2014, that has several distinguishing features that are particularly worth paying attention to. It is the longest model , and this gives greater opportunities for good interior design. The manufacturer used the space in an unusual way - instead of adding more beds, as its competitors would probably do, he opted for more comfort for two people.

On the favorite holiday trail of the Germans, there is a unique, though small town. This is Rothenburg ob der Tauber, where the medieval times are still not over and wine counts in gallons. Europe is called the Old Continent for a reason. Many cities pride themselves on the wealth of monuments of the most beautiful periods in architecture. A great example is Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a Bavarian pearl with an exceptionally large number of medieval monuments. In this respect, the city is a phenomenon on a global scale.

Volkswagen Amarok is a very successful pickup, which in the four-wheel drive version may turn out to be a quite efficient off-roader. What if you add a camping structure to it? This is what the German Bimobil did. Critics dismiss this car as soon as they see it. The motorhome, which is called Bimobil Husky with camping equipment, strikes some people with its angular living space, which does not fit the round shape of the Amarok at all. However, proponents do not care about aesthetics - they focus on practical advantages.

Turn off the phone? Run away or lie down? Or maybe crouch with legs together? How to behave when during a mountain trip we are surprised by a storm?. Polish mountains are not the Sahara desert or another desert where the hiker is surprised by a sandstorm. It might seem that checking the weather for a given day is one of the first things you do before you set off on a trail. Nevertheless, we still hear about accidents in the mountains and the tourist being struck by lightning. How to explain it? Reckless? Lack of consideration? Or maybe just bad luck?.

In a quiet and peaceful town in Warmia, just 6 km from the Marian Sanctuary in Święta Lipka, terrible things happened in the past. And here the chapter on bad traditions ended. Most of us like to celebrate the holidays traditionally, treating this period as one of the few moments in the year when you can meet your family. Unfortunately, tradition doesn't always come with good things. In the past, it was also associated with ruthless punishment, even for minor offenses, such as stealing bread. It is difficult to say which period was the most abundant in the infamous "traditions" of harsh sentences and torture. One can, however, be tempted to say that the middle ages with burning piles and a forest of gallows visible at the roads or on the hills are at the forefront of this unusual black list.

We present 6 smartphone applications that can be useful not only when going on vacation. We only considered free software. Most of them also have more extensive paid versions. This is one of the most interesting Polish applications for drivers, which can also act as a car navigation. Its main purpose is to warn about police cars, speed cameras, accidents and traffic jams appearing nearby. Thanks to Yanosik, we will quickly avoid bottlenecks and avoid possible fines. The application is social - i.e. the drivers themselves report when they see a threat. The program for phones is free. However, we can buy the entire device, which will facilitate the reporting of visible events (by pressing a button) and receiving information about the traffic situation. The set for about PLN 500 also includes one year of internet access, which is necessary to take advantage of the system's capabilities. Competitive for Yanosik is Coyote.

There are places in Silesia that are worth visiting immediately, before they are completely lost. Such a place is the HPR Porąbka-Kozubnik Recreation and Training Complex. We recommend watching the movie on utube how it used to be and what it should look like . We have been there twice. The first time a good 10 years ago, when there was still plenty to see, and most of the buildings were still standing, and last year, when the site changed hands and began to rebuild. Now it's definitely lost its mystery, but hopefully it will regain its charm. This place is especially liked by paintball enthusiasts, especially the tucked-up swimming pool building. We are not telling you anything else - we recommend watching the video about how it LOOKED.

In 1977, at the festival in Sopot, Helena Vondračka sang a song about a jug from the Krumlov castle. Back then, the Czech city became known to a wider audience, and today in summer there are so many tourists that you have to squeeze between them. There are places where you can feel history at every turn. They are full of life, and at the same time as if suspended in time - just enter one of the lazily winding streets to find out about it. The specific atmosphere is filled with the smell of coffee, muffled conversations and the silence of historic tenement houses looking with dignity at busy passers-by.

Too small for a motorhome? Nissan NV200 Combi is hard to suspect of touristic possibilities. But the British company Lunar Caravans proves that under certain circumstances the small Nissan turns out to be spacious enough. The representatives of the Lunar brand say it straightforwardly - their goal was to offer a car that will work both in everyday use and during a holiday trip. Based on a Nissan small van, the Vacanza fits in perfectly. A car with a length of 4.4 meters and a width of 2 meters (including the mirrors) will allow for agile negotiating even tight corners and narrow streets of European cities. It is a big advantage if we plan to actively visit.

Lunar Vacanza - for holidays and shopping

Seen from a bird's eye view, Novalja resembles many a cat in shape, and one with a bristly ponytail. As strange as it may sound, the city center is right under that bristling tail. Novalja is a beautiful resort on the Croatian island of Pag. There are two ways to get there - by ferry or over the bridge (longer route). A small town nestled in a warm bay awaits tourists with green pine forests. The local beaches are famous for their exceptional beauty, and many of them are marked with the Blue Flag.
