The Costa del Sol hides many tourist gems. One of them is Torremolinos, a resort that is famous for the city of flamenco. You can dance the night away here, and spend the day going crazy in the largest water park on the coast. To paraphrase a well-known saying, it can be said that in Andalusia all roads lead to Malaga. When visiting this beautiful city, it is worth going to the neighboring Torremolinos. It can be reached by cercanías (high-speed train) in just 5 minutes. Smaller, but not at all calmer, it offers tourists a wide range of entertainment in the numerous bars and pubs that are located along the beach. It is a great place for fans of partying to the rhythm of the latest dance hits, as well as blissful lounging on the golden sand.

Terremolinos - the city of flamenco

When we were planning a one-week vacation in 2013, our travel life changed completely, because new family members appeared in the world, two little daughters. The temptation was greater than common sense, besides, we successfully seasoned the girls at rallies, and so 2-month-old and 5-month-old babies were packed for holidays. We took two cars along the route: Slovakia - Hungary. The plan was simple, get as far as the girls would go. We planned the first longer stop in Trencin , at a campsite on an island. The location was very inviting - an island on the Vah River overlooking the castle. Picturesque? The idyll ended there, so we only stayed one night, which the gentlemen successfully used for beer tasting at the bar on the campsite. The next day we left quite late, because we were hoping that the beer percentages would evaporate, but we had to use a ruse with the driver-passenger exchange. We drove a few dozen kilometers very calmly, and then a metallic noise began to be heard from the bus. Sometimes downhill, sometimes in gear, sometimes in slack. It irritated our nerves, what's worse, we couldn't drive like this without fear of a serious breakdown. People were a bit surprised when for a moment one of the boys was running with his head against the left rear wheel, because it was from this part of the bus that the noise was coming. We decided to make a stop at a gas station to see what was causing the fuss. A dream-stop place - a station, and right next to a restaurant - the girls go to the restaurant with the kids, and the boys remove the breakdown. The joy was short-lived, because it turned out to be a brothel, not a restaurant. So the girls in the Ford were sipping cold drinks, hornets were flying nearby, and the boys were banging the wheels with a hammer. After a few hours, the decision was made - we are going to the campsite, where you will be able to look into the wheel and wait for meals from Poland if necessary. We got to Zvolen in Slovakia, well here the commune left its mark on campsites, we haven't seen such toilets for a long time. Spooky alleyways made of tin tilts, dimly lit, scary, only a few people on the campsite, scary. We have not even unpacked, hopefully remove the defect as soon as possible and move on. A few phone calls to friends, confirmation of the theory - this is a joint, a conclusion - you can go on, but it will get louder and unpleasant. In order to loosen up, in the evening we decided to make a summer cinema, we got into our sleeping bags, because the nights were already cold, and we enjoyed the Oscar-winning production Public Enemy, a strange choice for a holiday evening, so we dispersed imperceptibly to the cars. In the morning, the gentlemen tightened the bearing and we go further to Eger (the big city is our destination, the campsite was supposed to be nice, there is no point in sitting on the one that the creators of cheap horror movies demand) there we will find a shop or a mechanic. On the way, we noticed a car parts store, we stop, the seller directs us to the mechanic next door, and there a very nice Hungarian - the owner of the plant looks under the bus, confirms that it is a joint, writes the name of the part in Hungarian and the name of the store on a piece of paper. Eger and where you can order a part. We arrive at Szarvaskő , this is where our destination campsite is supposed to be, discouraged by the previous two, we cross a beautiful wooden bridge, decorated with wooden flower pots, we jostle with a slurry tanker and suddenly enter the campsite with hedge boxes, a beautiful toilet building, a shelter and a summer kitchen , a climbing wall, fire places, a lake, a waterfall, a playground and a hotel. Several cars from Poland, Belgium and Hungary on the field. Phew. it's good, it's clean and very nice. http://www.oko-park.hu/ apart from a bit of a pain in the road close to the campsite is great. From here we make bus trips to Eger , Belapatfalva , Szilvásvárad . We especially recommend the cable car route in Szilvásvárad , it is worth going up to the upper station to the waterfalls and returning on foot along beautiful paths. Here, in the parking lot, we eat a greasy, savory donut, i.e. a langosz, whoever has not tried should regret it, although the liver will forgive him for it, because it is a real caloric bomb. In Belapatfalva , we admire the monastery, we buy a tablecloth from a very nice Hungarian woman who embellishes on linen materials on the spot. We come back from the trip from Eger with vegetables and meat and in the evening we make a real stew over the fire for our new friends from Poland and Belgium. We find a pot of the right size in the camping kitchen, light a fire in the fireplace and spend a lovely evening with a couple of Poles and Belgians. In the meantime, the guys are repairing the bus. It's been so nice for us a few days, on Friday we are packing, because on Saturday some of the team are called by their duties. The other three stay in Hungary for a few more days, but they move closer to Budapest to Papa , where there is a nice campsite http://www.termalcamping.de/ and thermal pools next to it - here is half of Germany, the other probably in Hajduszoboszlo. We will catch the Hungarian Baja Rally 2013, where Krzysztof Hołowczyc and pilot Andreas Schulz took 2nd place, and we are soaking our daughter in warm waters. When traveling with such a little man, other things are important, such as a separate room for a child with a bathtub and changing table, clean toilets and a quiet campsite, and it was all there in both camps - in Hungary, in Slovakia, unfortunately not anymore. We liked it in Hungary, although we visited much less than usual, but we mastered traveling by buses in a foreign country with prams, bags, cameras and other shelters, and we did not lose anything. In 2014, we are planning a much longer route and a much longer vacation.

Can a large van, resembling a delivery truck, cause a sensation? It turns out that it is. On condition, however, that it will be equipped as a high-class passenger car and packed with electronics. This is exactly the case with the new Mercedes V-Class. In Poland, Mercedes V was presented for the first time in Poznań during the Motor Show and it was the hottest premiere at the brand's stand with a star in the logo. Although the shape of the car is quite common, you may like the details, such as modern-looking, diagonal headlights with the now "obligatory" LEDs. Body contours give the impression of slenderness and give the illusion that the car is in motion all the time. If, however, the exterior was to be the greatest asset of this vehicle, we would have to write about the defeat. The V-Class is certainly not the most beautiful or the most stylistically designer car among the vehicles produced today.

Every year, a large group of new adepts of this sport comes to the group of "infected" with the bug of kitesurfing. What is the reason for this? Where does such interest come from? I think anyone who tries Kite once will respond without hesitating. A huge dose of adrenaline and amazing experiences resulting from the combination of several elements at once. Water, wind, wonderful landscapes, and the amazing climate and atmosphere surrounding this sport make people very eagerly abandon their boring gray reality and put on neoprene wetsuits to find themselves head-on in the clouds even for a moment thanks to kitesurfing.

Constant search for wind, which is where to KITE

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. Not without reason - it delights with the architecture and charm of the islands off its coast. As one of the few medieval centers, it kept its defensive walls intact. Today you can admire how charmingly they reflect in the sea. They are a living monument of history in which it is forbidden to drive a car.

A 5.30 meter long camper with full equipment? Wingamm Micros is just such a vehicle - small, well-equipped, and based on the Volkswagen T5. Volkswagen T5 is rarely used as a base for camping cars. It may be even more surprising that while most European companies choose Fiat Ducato, a company from Italy chose Volkswagen!. And Italians are, you know, aesthetes. Therefore, before we start assessing the functionality of the Micros, we must admit that the car looks quite attractive. The GFRP body was neatly matched to the rest of the vehicle.

On April 1, a project began to raise money for a crazy trip around Poland in a 28-year-old motorhome. The Funky Camper group from Biała Podlaska plans to travel the whole country, visiting places proposed by internet users. How much does it take to make your dreams come true? Not much, really - all you need is a handful of enthusiasm, a good plan and a group of people who believe in what they are doing. Together, you can implement a lot of great ideas, including a trip around Poland in an old motorhome, which will soon hit a third cross.

Why do so many people choose caravanning? Why do campsites, campers and caravans constantly mesmerize tourists young and old? If you are still thinking about it, get to know the advantages of caravanning - maybe you too will finally go on the journey of your life. First, a small note. Anyone who chooses caravanning may be guided by something else. Not all advantages will be equally important for everyone who loves spending time on the road or camping. Exactly - here we encounter the first distinction. For some, the most important thing is traveling, moving from city to city, while others would like to quickly reach their destination, spend time in nature, or among friendly people. However, it is possible to distinguish a few basic advantages, which the "caravanners" mention most often.

Caravanning - what are its advantages?

In the near future, those who love amusement parks will no longer have to look abroad for them. A huge complex called Adventure World Warsaw is under construction in Grodzisk Mazowiecki. In close proximity to the capital of Poland (30 km), a gigantic amusement park - Adventure World Warsaw is being built. The complex will combine over 50 attractions in the all-year-round Winter Zone covering 70% of the entire complex and an outdoor Theme Park. Those who wish to visit AWW should obtain an appropriate map - the impressive size of the complex will make it possible to get lost in it. A passage under the Grand Hotel building will lead visitors to the park. There will be more than 10 water slides and other interactive water attractions under the dome of the Water Park . To imagine what awaits visitors, it is enough to mention, for example, swimming pools with artificial waves, underwater reefs, beaches with wonderfully powdery sand and cafes located under the water.

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).

Where to get money for travel?

Swift is the UK's largest and one of the world's largest manufacturers of caravans, motorhomes, and recently also recreational cottages. Although the history of the brand began 50 years ago, the son of the founder remains the president of the company to this day. The company's history began in 1964 in the city of Hull in the eastern part of Great Britain, on the banks of the Humber River. It was there that Ken Smith and Ken Day jointly built a caravan, which became the nucleus of the company. They named the trailer The Ten - ten. They managed to sell it for £ 289.

Swift - for 50 years consistently ahead

Lago di Como is the deepest lake in Italy and one of the deepest in Europe. Lovers of the beauty of nature will be delighted with the views that can be seen next to it. Waiting for them include the "river of milk", a sea of flowers and sharp mountain peaks. If we want to relax in a place where nature almost surrounds people with its beauty, Lago di Como, or Lake Como, will be a great choice. It is one of the most picturesquely situated lakes in the Alps. They are surrounded by high mountains covered with lush Mediterranean vegetation, and the lake itself is divided into 3 parts: Ramo di Como, Lago di Lecco and Ramo di Colico.
