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".

Quick camping meals

Bangkok delights and stuns you from the first time you set foot on Thai soil. Tourists leaving the plane are struck by the modernity of the airport, only to then be enchanted by the peace and elegance of the temples. Then it deafens him with the noise of narrow streets filled with people, stalls and tuk-tuk rickshaws, only to soothe him with the sight of a lazily flowing river. It is the quintessence of Asianness, it pulsates with life, outrages and delights at the same time. The impression of the lushness of the city's architecture is partly due to its... chaotic nature. Bangkok is crisscrossed by canals, which is why it is sometimes called the "Venice of the East" . There is no one precisely defined center, and the center is Rattanakosin - an island with numerous attractions of the Old Town. Tourists will probably also visit the Shanghai-like Chinatown district and the Pahurat Indian district. Virtually around every turn we enter a different world.

We have already presented campers that were bigger than tourist buses, but such huge caravans? Holiday Rambler offers a caravan that is 12 meters long, 4 meters high and 2.60 meters wide. Holiday Rambler is an American manufacturer that has been producing luxury caravans since 1953. The ones from the Presidential series are to be a reference to the times when the Holiday Rambler set (or rather exceeded) the standards on the market of exclusive leisure vehicles. The new project was consulted with the owners of caravans of the same name, produced in the 1980s and 1990s. The manufacturer's representatives asked five of them what they would expect from the new version. Their suggestions were used in the construction of a completely new caravan.

Young children at the campsite can draw, play dozens of games or perform "adult" duties such as helping prepare meals. Slightly older offspring can also do this, but they can also be encouraged to take slightly more sophisticated activities. On American portals we can find a lot of creative ideas that stimulate the imagination and encourage the whole family to join the fun. An example is the preparation of totems from paper plates and various materials. We will create our portraits together, sticking eyes made of acorns, hair made of noodles or twigs on the plates. The resulting totems can be placed on sticks stuck in the ground - our offspring will have no problems with getting into a tent or a camper.

The manufacturer is convinced that this caravan positively stands out from other, apparently similar vehicles. How is he trying to convince us?. Nice, modern interior and nice equipment - this is what Fendt sees as a pass to a higher class caravanning. Two-color furniture and light upholstery create an impression of spaciousness. This effect is further enhanced by numerous light points and "designer" main lamps above the table and above the main bed. These lamps look like round mirrors surrounded by LED lamps. Not only do they look great, they also reflect light.

Those who already sharpen their skis for the madness on the slopes have an extremely large selection when it comes to renowned European resorts. The offer is diverse and suited to everyone - from advanced skiers looking for a challenge to beginners who want to find out if snow skiing is what speeds up the blood flow in their veins. You can choose between small, even intimate, and huge resorts with hundreds of kilometers of ski slopes and extensive tourist infrastructure. A great example of an ideal resort for active people who want to make the most of their stay is Val Thorens - a ski paradise which is the highest winter sports center in Europe. The station is located at an altitude of 2,300 m, offering skiers excellent conditions for practicing their favorite sport even in May. An extensive accommodation base located directly on the slopes, numerous restaurants and shops, as well as discos together create a tempting offer, which is used by hundreds of thousands of tourists from all over Europe every year.
