The works of human hands can be practical, prosaic and painfully devoid of poetry. They can also delight, provoke a sharp dilation of the pupils and the opening of the mouth. If a product of the human mind was sent into space to delight representatives of other civilizations, these would probably be the most famous compositions of classical music. Perhaps these collections would also include paintings by the master of da Vinci - who knows, maybe "they" would solve the mystery of the mysterious smile of Mona Lisa?.

During the fair in Dusseldorf, a refreshed range of Hobby motorhomes was presented. So let's take a look at the smallest model of this brand in the new version. Siesta Van, if only because of the price, may turn out to be the most popular Hobby motorhome. Siesta Van comes in two versions. The V60 GF measures 5,999 mm and its basic price is 39,990 euros . The V65 GE is 6,690mm long and is available from 42,900 euros. Both versions, as standard, offer accommodation for two people . In the shorter version the main bed is double, in the longer version there are two single beds. The permissible total weight in both cases is 3.5 tonnes .

When we think about Thailand, we imagine either richly decorated temples or paradise islands and islets scattered among crystal clear waters. Both visions are correct, but today we will focus on the latter. More specifically, on the archipelago consisting of several dozen islands, which - despite the constantly growing popularity, and hence the crowds - still have quiet and peaceful places to offer. We are talking about Ko Lanta , an archipelago of 52 beautiful islands in the Andaman Sea. They tempt tourists with clean beaches and forests growing in deeper regions.

Evan is a completely new look at motorhomes. While working on this model, Dethleffs decided to abandon the accepted rules and completely rethink the concept of a motorhome. The fact that this is a completely different motorhome is evidenced even by the fact that its description cannot be found on the Dethfless brand website. Evan has his own website, and the relationship between the German manufacturer and his new brand is not exposed. All this to emphasize that Evan was not created to meet the expectations of camping enthusiasts. This vehicle is to appeal to those who have not seen a place for themselves in the camping world so far.

Motorhome owners don't have to worry about not being able to take more things on vacation. However, the situation is different for those who are planning a camping trip or are left with packing into a suitcase. There is always not enough space for stuffing all the necessary things, which usually causes our backpack to burst at the seams, crackle disturbingly and we are terrified by the very thought of taking anything out of it. So maybe some clever female tricks will be helpful?. There are legends about the capacity of women's handbags. We will find there not only a toiletry bag, keys or perfume, but also a set of wrenches or a jar of pickled cucumbers (documented fact). How do women do that from the depths of their little handbags they can get so many things - and still carry it all? These questions will probably remain rhetorical forever.

Teardrop-shaped caravans are not a modern invention. Such vehicles were popular in the United States in the 1950s. Usually, these were constructions created by avid DIY enthusiasts. Today, however, such a trailer can simply be bought . We have written about Teardrop Trailers on several occasions. We mentioned them both when we wrote about the bold ideas of amateur constructors and when describing T @ B vehicles. But there are many more companies whose success is based on small, rounded trailers. Today we will present another of them.

Many of us like to set as wallpaper paradise views from beaches somewhere at the end of the world. A boat moored by the shore or a picturesque bay - when we add white sand and crystal clear water to it, we get one of the many views from Thailand. You won't get here by camper van, but it's worth getting on a plane, spending some more time on the bus, and then changing to a boat and sailing to paradise. And there ... If someone does not know how to swim, he has to stand on the beach and cry from despair - or learn to swim.

The question is trivial? At first glance, it seems that no one should have any problems with such a purchase. And yet, buying a decent sleeping bag is not so easy - it is not enough to go to the store and choose the most expensive model. As with buying a tent and anything else we need for camping, the decision to choose a sleeping bag should be carefully considered. If we want to buy an ordinary, cheap product, driven by the desire to save (or the lack of larger funds), sooner or later we will wake up frozen and broken. Whoever had the dubious pleasure of experiencing such a night knows what it is. A sleeping bag does not necessarily have to be thick, but it should be made of a decent material. This rule does not apply to mountain climbing enthusiasts and overnight stays in lower temperature conditions - such tourists will rather buy a thick sleeping bag filled with natural down . Of course, correspondingly more expensive.

How to buy a good sleeping bag

Tourists visiting Thailand probably first go to Bangkok - one of the most visited places in the country. Right behind it is Chiang Mai, a city in the northern part of the country, in the province bearing the same name. The capital of the region is also called the Rose of the North, which perfectly reflects its beauty. There are many Buddhist temples covered with blossoming gardens, and in the picturesque streets, we encounter beautiful flora at every step. The full name of the city is Nopburi Srinakornping Chiangmai, which means "New Town" (although it is actually over 700 years old). It is impossible not to love Chiang Mai. Not only for the beauty of the city itself, but also for the landscapes that you can admire while exploring it. The most beautiful views are from one of the city's most magnificent temples - Wat Phra That Doi Suthep . The complex of delicious buildings is located on the hill of Doi Suthep, west of Chaing Mai. The beauty of the temple delights and dazzles with the richness of gilding and colors. The openwork umbrellas surrounding the chedi (towers) add to its attractiveness.

You think that 100,000 dollars for a motorhome is a lot? You will change your mind when you change your perspective. To purchase one of the most expensive motorhomes in the world, you will need a budget of well over $ 2 million. Americans and Canadians excel in the production of luxury A-class motorhomes . There is nothing strange to see a cosmic-looking bus, often with graphics in the shape of burning flames, inside which the interior is completely forgotten about moderation. Perfect wood, high-quality leather and the most expensive equipment are standard in each of them.

A real caravanning LUXURY

Phuket is the largest island in Thailand, which is very popular with tourists. It owes it to its beauty and easy access from many places around the globe. The island has an international airport of Phuket through which 3 million people pass through each year. It is perfectly connected with the largest airports in the world and with the country itself. The surface of the island is very varied - on the west coast there are beautiful sandy beaches, and the center is mountainous and covered with lush vegetation (approx. 7% of the island is a natural forest). Tourists from Europe are particularly eager to visit Patong, which is easy to notice, especially in winter, when there are many of them there.

Theme-river: how to prepare a dish during your stay at the campsite so that you can eat it quickly and not get tired at the same time? The classics of away meals are pasta and rice dishes or immortal grilled dishes. However, when we go on vacation for one year in a row, such dining can be - literally and figuratively - eaten. So, today we present some interesting suggestions for quick, but not banal meals. They are worth trying, if only because they will be successful even when we choose the proportions "by eye".
