South Dalmatia tempts tourists with numerous attractions, the greatest of which is undoubtedly Dubrovnik, known as the Pearl of the Adriatic. Like an expensive crown stone, the city adorns the coast and attracts thousands of people each year. Croatian Dubrovnik is considered the most beautiful city on the Adriatic.

From time to time, we receive messages on our fanpage with questions about where do we get money for a bus and traveling? I am in a hurry with the answer. No, unfortunately we have not discovered the golden mean and money does not make itself; (The costs of maintaining the Tripciak (insurance, spare parts, equipment, tools) and constantly pampering it for further and further trips to distant regions cost us a lot, and yet you still have to save for fuel, food, entrance tickets, parking lots and toll roads (we try to avoid these, but it is not always possible).

In 2012, we decided to explore the south of France from Monaco to Marseille. Southern France is hot and crowded, but the further away from the main resorts, the more beautiful and calmer it is. We started with Parc Naturel Regional du Verdon and Saint Julien du Verdon , the views were worth a million dollars, and the campsite was only 14 euros for the two of us and the bus - after a quarter of an hour we knew why a blue lamp was on at the reception desk and the fly float was up to date. loans at the reception. Sheep are bred on the local slopes, and when there are sheep, the number of flies is indescribable, and although we felt sorry for such a lovely spot, the next day we were relieved to leave the spit habitat. The campsite itself is beautifully situated, clean, the service is very nice, playground for children, wi-fi - Camping du lac .

Marbella, a resort beloved by golfers, is located on the Spanish Costa del Sol. It is famous for its long and sandy beach, yacht harbors, historic buildings, as well as delicious cuisine and high prices. Which old continent city has the highest per capita income in Europe? Which is the most Rolls Royce on the road? The first association is London, followed by Spanish Marbella - a luxurious seaside resort located on the Mediterranean Sea, on the Costa del Sol. Marbella is not very big, which makes it crowded in summer. Tourists are not put off by high prices (e.g. a small beer costs around 7 euro) or not very efficient public transport. The advantage of the city is a beautiful beach and a guarantee of great weather in the season. In summer it hardly rains and the temperature stays above 30 ° C. Thanks to the proximity to the coast and the nourishing sea breeze, it is not stuffy, although it is good to hide in the shade between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., sipping an iced tea or a mint drink. It is worth remembering that it is impossible to walk barefoot on the beach - the coarse gray sand heats up very quickly.

On the one hand, this year's Caravanning Salon in Poznań is a success - a large number of exhibitors, a large number of vehicles on display, many new companies (not only at the fair, but also on the Polish market). At the same time, it's hard to resist the impression that this event needs a newer, fresher formula. Let's start with the pluses, because there are many of them. When visiting the exhibitors' stands, talking to owners and employees of companies related to caravanning, it was hard for me to resist the impression that a lot has changed for the better during the year. Some still complain that the market in Poland is difficult, that the sale of new motorhomes and caravans is weak, that it is only a bit better in renting camping vehicles and selling used vehicles. From the same conversations, however, there is a hope that I did not sense during the talks a year ago. And it's not just about words, but facts.
