The history of the Rapido group began in 1948, when the carpenter - artist Constant ROUSSEAU decided to start his own business in Châtillon-sur-Colmont. His first workshop was in a room of an ordinary residential building, and his main activity was the production of individual furniture. Soon the number of employees increased to 15 people. In 1958, Constant built the first foldable caravan for himself and his family. This project turned out to be decisive for the future of the company and set the path for further development in the 1960s. Its inventor was awarded many times for the construction of the caravan, and already in 1961, after returning from vacation in Italy, Rousseau gave his "child" the name - RAPIDO .

To prevent deterioration of the battery, it is recommended to fully charge it before storing it for a long time. A battery is not a passive material like metal or plastic - it contains chemical compounds that constantly react between them, even when the battery is not in use. Natural battery degradation can be prevented or significantly slowed down with proper maintenance. A little boost is better than no charge, but there are a few ways to make it more efficient. Marine & Leisure batteries should not be completely discharged. Full discharge shortens their life and reduces capacity. To avoid this, the batteries should be recharged whenever the open circuit voltage drops below 12.5 V.

The 4th edition of the outdoor caravanning fair on the Hel Peninsula is ahead of us. Caravaning Summer Show. The cooperation with the authorities of Jastarnia in 2020 turned out to be so successful that this year's fair remains in the same location - a picturesque port. Time and place are not accidental. On the one hand, a very large number of 100% occupied campsites, located on the Hel Peninsula and in the vicinity - these are direct customers and an opportunity, for example, to replace the caravan or motorhome with a new one. On the other hand, it is difficult to count the number of tourists who have the opportunity to get to know and love the world of caravanning. This is a great opportunity to talk to experts.

Until then, we ate one pizza, which definitely does not detract from the exquisite character of our culinary expedition, because my girls, even in the field conditions in which we live, cook very well. Fuel, such as fuel, between PLN 5-6 per liter. (.. not counting Bosnia and Herzegovina - less than PLN 5). We drive economically (on asphalt). Offroad , however, does not count for burning, that's what I heard :). SK, H vignettes for 10 days, PLN 70 each. We got our first ticket in nice circumstances.

South Moravia, or Jižní Moravy, is an area located in the south of the Czech Republic on the border with Austria. The places we will describe below are great places to stop on your way south or for a long weekend or even longer vacation. There are many attractions on the list, but only two campsites. The first one, Vranovská pláž Holiday Park, is a campsite with lots of attractions and amenities. There are various forms of accommodation here. The second Merlin's Camp is a place with only holiday cottages. There are no pitches or facilities for campers here, but we write about this in another article: Interesting campsites in Moravia , where you will also find an interactive map of campsites.

When we decide to rent a motorhome , we largely take responsibility for the equipment of the value of a small apartment. Few people realize that the contractual provisions defining the relationship between the landlord and the tenant in certain circumstances can have far-reaching consequences for us. While it will be relatively easy for us to check the condition of the rented vehicle, its equipment, the condition of the tires or visual defects, hardly anyone wants/can carefully read the content of the contract and attachments.

Caravanning tourism is an increasingly popular form of spending free time in Poland every year. This is not just a pandemic effect, but a global trend in the search for freedom, independence and contact with nature. The CAR&REST company together with CAMP4U are organizing the Open Days of Caravanning Tourism on June 25-27, 2021. The meeting in Siechnice near Wrocław will be a great promotion not only of caravanning itself, but also of all outdoor tourism. One of the main goals here is education regarding safety and ecology.

Caravanning Open Days

When we start our adventure with caravanning, regardless of whether we are moving in a motorhome or with a caravan, we rather think about pleasant matters and dream holidays. The dark side of our hobby is the service of sanitary devices . In this material, we will tell you what to pay attention to when selecting and operating devices and chemicals. We transport clean water in dedicated tanks both in caravans and motorhomes. The capacity of the containers themselves can be from 20 to even over 200 liters, and in motorhomes, we can also deal with not only individual tanks, but even systems of connected vessels. Such solutions will help us to properly manage the amount of transported water and help us rationally pack the vehicle for the duration of the journey.

After a few days on the road, another puzzle. Hungarian - Croatian border. Our tests are not like that (they require pcr, and we still use antigen from Poland). First border of Gola, closed. We did, however, quite nice and the officer directed us to the Letenye crossing. Several cars in front of us. Another woman in a decision-making role. Passports, where we are going (a hint here: in Croatia, wild camping is not welcome, it exceeds the cost of camping . However, we learned the lesson. When asked where we are going to stay, we had a working place (in the pandemic era) - an auto camp near Zagreb . ) She checked the tests quite thoroughly. Despite what is provided by gov.pl, ours were enough (by PLN 250, each cheaper than required !!!).
