Do you think you've seen everything? I guess you are wrong after all. Forest River offers caravans that are partly made of plastic and partly of fabric. In addition, elements of the material can extend far beyond the outline of the body ... Is it a tent? Is that a trailer? It's hard to say, actually. Certainly, however, the American Flagstaff and Rockwood constructions are original. Forest River vehicles are a combination of a trailer and a tent. This solution has several advantages. When traveling, the car can pull a small and light trailer, which should be much easier to drive. The unladen weight is, depending on the version (and there are 31 of them for each of both models!), About 1200-1400 kg .

It is not the first time that we are writing about the Polish motorhome Neo-Traveler . However, expanding the model range to three Voyager and one Explorer is an opportunity to take a closer look at each of them. Currently, we can choose the Voyager X, Voyager Y and Voyager Z models. Similar names suggest a great similarity, and indeed, in each case we are dealing with a Fiat Ducato L4H3 delivery van (or a twin Peugeot or Citroen car), transformed into a comfortable vehicle for traveling . The differences are mainly limited to the interior design.

The Cote d'Azur , also known as the French Riviera, is called the heart of the world by the French themselves. It may sound a bit conceited, but it cannot be denied that it is an exceptionally beautiful area. It stretches from the Italian border to the town of Cassis in the west of the country and is visited by about 10 million each year. tourists. The avenue of stars in Cannes, the beautiful medieval town of Saint-Paul de Vence, the Alexandre Chocolate Factory in Roubion or the Lérnis Abbey located on the Saint-Honorat island, where after a week of living like a medieval monk we will forget about the busy reality - the attractions of the Côte d'Azur can be enumerated for a long time. We will not have enough time to get to know them all during one trip, but nothing prevents us from returning there over and over again. And it will never be enough.

When it's gray and gloomy outside, and the world disappears in the pouring rain, we can move to hot and sunny Portugal to forget about the unfavorable aura there. This time, however, our goal is not the beaches, palm trees and the azure blue of the sea - today we will look at Portuguese restaurants. We will taste original flavors and learn about typical dishes. Who knows, maybe they will appear in our kitchen later?. If we like spices, especially Indian ones, they will definitely be there. Portuguese dishes include a mixture of curry, African piri-piri peppers, cinnamon, as well as coriander and saffron. It is colorful, tasty and extremely aromatic.

All materials were sent to us by our reader Bartosz, thank you and we encourage others to show off their wonders !!. When I came up with this project, none of my friends believed in what I wanted to do - that is, to sell a Mercedes E-class W210 station wagon, in full swing, and change to ... MB100 from 1992. I've always liked this box. After many months of searching, I finally found something that could be a base for building a supervan. The MB100 has never been a typical hippie bus, but its shape and simplicity are, in my opinion, its main strengths. In Poland, this model is mainly used on construction sites.

Lunavan for the love of edges

British company Elddis focuses on the production of caravans, but also offers two motorhomes. The cheaper and most popular model is the Autoquest (prices from 33,000 pounds). We, however, take a look at the Aspire model. The basic versions of Aspire are available at prices of 44-50 thousand. pounds. Like its cheaper brother, Aspire is also based on the Peugeot Boxer . Although it is a twin vehicle to Fiat Ducato, the use of the French model is a change compared to the Italian production that dominated the caravanning market.

A sunny campsite has its advantages and disadvantages. The latter may include a problem with insects and too intense sun. Fortunately, we can hide from them in a camper or caravan. There is one condition. We need to think about protecting ourselves against a potential threat before embarking on a journey. Currently, there are many amenities available on the market, thanks to which flies, mosquitoes, the sun, or even ... curious eyes will be harmless to us. Most of the available solutions are for the side windows of a motorhome. A simple protection can be, for example, the installation of a spring roller shutter .

It's obvious that if it's the third day and we are sitting in the trailer with our kids, it can get boring - and finally nervous. The game of cards is bored, all pairs of shoes are soaked, and you can see sour faces on the faces. As if that was not enough, a power outage made tablets, mobile phones and laptops out of order… Scary, huh?. However, you, as Super- parents , who are not afraid of it - set out to save the holiday atmosphere. Conventional ways, such as arranging puzzles, drawing or playing eurobusiness, have already been reworked, so to help you out in this extremely stressful situation, we suggest: Fun Camp.

Cleopatra bathed in milk, while the sinister Elizabeth Bathory preferred to rejuvenate herself in a slightly bloodier bath.

In a caravan or motorhome, a sink and a gas stove are standard today. There are also kitchen cabinets. And that would be it when it comes to kitchen equipment. We can get more for an additional fee or by completing the necessary equipment ourselves. Let's start with basic needs, such as boiling water. We can do it traditionally by placing a kettle or other vessel with water on the burner of the gas stove. However, it is worth knowing that there is a more convenient solution - a kettle powered by 12V electricity. The power consumption of the device designed for caravanning will not be high - in the case of a popular Waeco brand product, it will be an average of 200 W.
