Museum is a great new attraction in greece. And a finish photographer connects with nature for her mystical shots. Its the october fest season and each year munich normally welcomes more than 6000000. 00 locals and tourists alike for the worlds biggest a beer festival but this year it is not happening due to the coronavirus pandemic however there is still an alternative on offer now we were on location in munich last weekend to enjoy the festivities there before the social distancing laws were further tightened while despite everything people are still dressing up for the occasion and women like me are wearing a dress like this one cheers. And welcome to munich germany. The october test in the very capital scheme is the world over. So what happens when its impossible to host in 2020 due to the corona virus pandemic city officials were forced to cancel the october fest this year the locals are still celebrating but on a much smaller scale this year. Over 50 restaurants and taverns in munich came together this year to plan an alternative to the october fest they call it the views house or tavern views and visitors can head to individual venues across the city to drink their big beers to dance and to eat typical october 1st food all observing social distancing and wearing face masks. And many people are still wearing their no or later husband and this year m f 2 but as a big fan of the october fest my so i wondering if this year can really measure up to the real thing so lets go check it out. So im going to get an october 1st beer and one of the most famous breweries for a house this year they will top the 1st exactly 12 noon in the brewery not in the beer tent. Has always the specially brewed october 1st beer is on tap but im wondering if the people here are missing the traditional event comes you just cant do entirely without october fest of course you have to stick to all the Safety Measures and be considerate but i think a little celebration is right and allowed you this alternative festival is only a reminder of the original we want to honor october fest as an event this cant be a substitute nor should it be. To the beers great always and the people are super nice but i must say what i am missing about the regular october best is getting out of the pain. But you have a metaphor everyone here had to preserve their tables at a time due to the pandemic so i am missing a little bit of that making friends by the end of the day feeling of the regular over the. Next step im headed to munich famous marienplatz to get a taste of my favorite october fest food at a nearly 150 year old restaurant called the rut. This is one of the many locations which are trying to keep the spirit and traditions of october fest alive this year. I ordered a shrine tax the oven roasted pork knuckle is a true october fest classic. I think. Thats really good. That my favorite ive never been good in the case of the festival but i have to say i think its really nice that you were going to have this but i really have to write about people here think im pro day every hour but i will think that you know ok. Maybe i will feel the october 1st spirit a little more if i can find some more people in their later hosen lets go check it out. Im happily surprised to see how many people are dressed up this year even with no october 1st taking place im wondering why is it still important to them. I think traditional costume is part of being a berry and why shouldnt we wear traditional cost as a woman youre always properly dressed in a dirndl. Group. So things certainly look a little bit different in munich this year but i have to say i really admire the people here for being able to carry on their tradition safely its been so much fun and i hope that we can revisit the worlds most famous beer festival again next year service and. Next up an adventure in greece normally the countrys antiquities are held in its numerous museums but now some can be admired in the deep blue sea a shipwreck with a trove of precious items has open to visitors now you wont have to worry about social distancing here but you will need to know how to dive. Many ancient Greek Treasures are found not on land but under the sea. The countrys 1st underwater museum has opened near the island of aloni so its in the northern gnc. Diving instructor illyana young is the guide for the underwater tours. Im a diving instructor i want to give the diving instances 5 years. Sam a thing for me that i can take people that i didnt let them know and ill get word and the spatially now that we have to be on that one to museums. Around 4000 ancient m. Henri lie on the seabed between the islands of the lonely souce and petty status. When examining them but most caution is needed. I want to make it a bit more cautious about the limitations that we have so we can make sure that we have these moments whatever so we have to keep minimum distance of one meter in. A boat and i dont see ensign quick. Tourists have around 40 minutes to view the underwater museum about 28 meters down lies an ancient shipwreck nothing remains of the woodhall only its cargo can still be seen one m. 40. Its thought to have been a merchant ship that sailed from athens 2500 years ago the story goes that for unknown reasons it caught fire and sank down to the bottom of the sea. Its an impressive site for the tourists. Going to the museums you always have these signs complex with explanations and we have them here too its funny to see so many. Similarities to a conventional means ian even though were in a totally different environment its really incredible. The signs explain the various styles of emporia recognizable by their shapes. Alone associates hoping the underwater museum will bring more visitors to this previously little known island. The french tourists are certainly impressed. As weve had the good fortune to have gone diving all around the world in Asia Africa South America and the caribbean this vacation is a family project and when we found out you can dive down to a 2500 year old record we booked immediately i mean its an incredible experience but also on call you. After nearly 3 quarters of an hour tour guide tell ya ya lamont gives the signal to circus. City it was really fantastic i wasnt expecting it at all its a bit like taking a time machine. The greek waters are rich in historical treasures. Of im upset it would be wonderful if there were other museums of this kind so wed get a better picture of how the ancient greeks lived 2500 years ago but if you take. The residence of a lonely so sorry also impressed by their new attraction. Petros well be nice is mayor of the island. And now hes an avid diver as well. As mayor i have to step up and set a good example. It was important to me to be able to dive here and see the shipwreck for myself with whatever you have to. For those who dont wish to dive theres also a museum on the island here you can see reconstructions photos and videos of the underwater treasures a model reveals that the emporia still cover the outlines of the ship and with the help of Virtual Reality headset visitors can explore the seabed from dry land. Diving into the history of ancient greece and its high sing idea. Whats the best way to combine a fresh air a birds eye view and good food well a hot air balloon ride with gourmet dishes on board i discovered this combination recently in the netherlands there chef angelica fun cool the air offers her guests an evening of fine dining at high altitudes now if youre afraid of heights then this may not be for you but i overcame my fears for a 3 course meal and this guy. Im in a hot air balloon over the dutch countryside but this isnt an ordinary ride and here guests are offered a common area experience. Youve heard of diving but what about dining i am about to embark on such an adventure. Angelicas might check some of the items should be using for cooking so these are special developed baskets. For day all fooled all in the top of the balloon at about 35 meters high and there is still hoops between 80 and 90 degrees so the balloon is actually a huge halter off and. Once the balloon is filled with the air its ready to go but entering the basket this way is not how i expected to begin this adventure. Give it a bit here keep. The special candles built on the sides for cooking and serving prevent guests from simply climbing into the basket. Or. Ventura. The climb goes smoothly and i am slowly getting my bearings. Into the cans a small space on the side of the balloon to cook and prepare the food as i watch her i cant help but wonder one thing were going to experience her 3rd in a restaurant ok yes but i could tell you this is the restaurant the most wonderful view what is the biggest challenge cooking up here the time. And use of the time timing is a challenge because i have to listen to the chief pilots here because we depend on the. When. Everything is going so you never know where to winds brings us and we need to go. To land before the sun goes down into lakes mike has been combining ballooning and dining for 17 years shes one of 2 master female shops in the netherlands so were about to have the 1st course. The 1st course is 2 parts its the caramelized carriage with the hair uncovered and the current should be in some flowers this for you. Move very savory and cute so it is not every day that you get to eat in the world only hot air balloon restaurant we are cruising now at about 500. 00 metres above ground and angelica is going to be serving up a 3 course meal and of course everything is very well prepared in advance preparation is certainly the key. And julie brings down the cooking containers that were simmering inside the hot air balloon the emphasis here is on slow cooking. So you see. So. Very very often and the slowly cooking means that all the deuce and all the texture stays in the fridge. This is the sound of feeling with roasted red pepper in the body of a sauce. Like this basket is 3 metres long by one metre 60 wide so there is plenty of space you could even lie down in q one in 2 but it has room for up to 9 people so i am definitely not alone here. All. The custom built counter above the basket gives the chef extra Cooking Space its compact yet well equipped has anything ever gone wrong or fallen overboard no no not at all. Maybe a tals form for the so that solves. This gourmet flight cost 415 year olds per person. Once the final course is served theres time to take in the sun side but this also means that we will be landing so. You start to look out for landing spot so you flood you know the 15 minutes and. Then the balloon when were learning to 40 told to the robot move to banking is a little bit and just let it happen both run before during and after you saw the boss to let you know its legal and like again. We had to delay the descent several times until we found the right spot to land. And it was just like mil said. We bounced several times and i was holding on for dear life until we finally came to a full stop oh. Well there are certainly easier ways to enjoy a gourmet meal but this experience is definitely one i will never forget.

And i have been to many places and i know which chorus through 2 different landscapes like fields or forests with moss or. So i am following my voice. At her studio and helsinki she begins work on her next project but the basis for each photograph is the same there has to be another level not only that i have placed close to the landscape the image has to give me some kind of emotion and this emotion can be sadness fear or happiness but there has to be a deeper level in that.

Luxury is often in the details and one of 5 star hotel in austria is being celebrated for its luxurious contribution to sustainability its built almost entirely out of wood a material thats valued for its durability and its capacity to absorb Carbon Dioxide the hotel is following a trend towards building for the future. Here among the lush woodlands of austrias zillah valley wooden houses have a long tradition. Now theres even a new luxury hotel built almost entirely from wood this is how this building breathes you can describe it but when you experience it yourself it really gets under your skin this building can give you goose bumps. Malise god is a wooden 5 star Hotel Designed by renowned italian architect potato turn. 4 owners christina been to eggo and her husband rinehart and the hotel is a dream come true. Lucas in my view part of the luxury of would is how simple it is to build with that you know close the word luxury as many many things over the years the awareness of guests has grown in the sense that people really are looking for true luxury in the kind of natural and unspoiled environment that were living in. In that wish to look at. The furnishings also contain many wouldnt beechers. The aim is for the hotels beyonds to appeal to all of the senses. Absolute the wood has such a calming effect because it has a warmth. And because its a living organism i think that comes across the 4 methods of. Austrian hald marketa is in charge of the interior design of mollys cotton. Even 6 months after opening he still likes to come by and inspect the pieces of furniture he designed especially for the hotel. Working with living natural material is an exciting challenge for him. Wood is unpredictable so when the sun shines on it that leads to cracks forming and thats what makes it completely unique so there are 15 tables here and each one has a different crowd at. The Hotel Features 6 different kinds of timber from the region including spruce and walnut the owners are convinced that wood has a positive influence on peoples moods as well as their health. For example the building uses a lot of swiss pine not only does furniture made of swiss pine smell pleasant its supposed to lower the heart rate and encourage a good nights sleep. Building wooden houses isnt i hot been those blood including knowing when and how best to tell the trees. Depending on the base of the moon the wood can be calmer if i use it and its solid form so it doesnt twist or contort as much then the wood is simply calmer the look we gave. More and more hotels and holiday homes are using this natural material inside and out in numerous European Countries buildings made of wood are becoming more popular more versatile and more modern like this 85. 00 metre residential tower in broome and all norway reports come in with wood you can always build something timeless there are no architectural limits who would also continues to live with and its a Carbon Dioxide Storage Facility it could be with every cubic meter of wood stores a ton of c o 2 here were storing about 1600 or 1700 tons. What could be better than a luxury vacation in an ecologically constructed hotel. But wouldnt buildings are more susceptible to weather conditions so its important. That the highest standards are maintained in the construction. Of this vehicle hopefully in the future there will be a lot more of this sort of construction what with the focus on the thoughtful use of materials and on sustainability. Happy medium between tradition and mow down to be the wooden hotel represents Sustainable Architecture with a future.
