He and his wife share this house in north london with six others they barely know. He gets up at 4 30am every morning to go to the first of his three cleaning jobs. Saturday i start at five oclock and finish at two oclock. Sunday i start at ten oclock and finish at 6am. So you work seven days a week . Seven days a week. Because the salary is a poor, poor salary. How much . £7. 50 an hour. I am on 900. £900 a month . Yes, 900. But i have to pay 500 for this room, the rent, and transport and food. The life is so, so hard. Sam wadicor is 26, he is a Mental Health support worker. Most of his wage goes on rent. He cycles around london because he can no longer afford the bus fares. I dont feel that i earn a fair wage for the work that i do. You are constantly told that having any sort of luxury in life is sort of bad and you need to knuckle down and work harder and it will all come to you. That is what i find most difficult about it. It is notjust not having enough money each month to maybe go out to the pub once a week, it is being told that is a luxury you shouldnt be able to afford. It used to be thought that work was the surest way out of poverty. That old truth has been demolished in the decade since the financial crash. In 2008, more than half those living in poverty here in london were unemployed. Now most are in work and they live alongside very conspicuous wealth. Every day, they see a world that they seem to be locked out of. What does that do to their sense that they have a proper stake in society . Their sense that shared citizenship has any real meaning . The most dangerous feeling we have seen in recent years is that actually our democracy may not be worth fighting for, may not be worth supporting. Rule of law is a fiction, Educational Equality is believed to be a fiction. And we have to fight to rebuild that because the belief in the continued openness in our society requires a belief that everyone is part of it in equality of citizenship. I think that we are dealing with a threat to the whole liberal democratic model. This woman in her 20s was too anxious about her job to reveal her identity. She works in a west end theatre. Shes getting steadily poor. Its a bit crazy that the thought of not being able to pay my rent can cause such a bad thing for me emotionally. I lost a lot of weight. I was upset a lot of the time and i was actually put on antidepressants for how bad my anxiety got. Bills were going up, travel is going up, everything is going up and even food. And my wage isnt going up. So obviously where you are looking at the bigger picture, where i used to be able to save a little bit of money i cant any more. Even in a period of economic recovery the working poor know the big truths of their own lives, that wealth is not trickling down to them. 0ur age of rising inequality is also an age of rising popular anger. Allan little, bbc news. And now it is time for The Travel Show. On this weeks travel show, were in a Surfing Community trying to hold back the tide of development on the chilean coast. Also coming up. We go looking for lost ships beaneath the canadian waves. We discover a novel way to make a cake in rural france. And our global guru, simon calder, tackles the biggest question in travel. Where next . Lets start this weeks programme on the stunning pacific coastline of central chile. Punta de lobos is best known for its dramatic high cliffs, with views over black sandy beaches and rocky outcrops, where sea lions gather. And its also become famous as one of the best places to surf in South America. This is insane. Wow with a consistent swell and regular runs of huge waves, Punta De Lobos is considered one of the best breaks in South America. And its become a paradise for big wave surfers. Ive arrived in Punta De Lobos at a particularly good time, because word has gone around that this mornings swell will be unusually strong, with waves of up to 30 feet. These huge waves have been tracked all the way from antarctica, and have drawn out locals and people from across the world to watch them come in and crash against these rocks. If you look really carefully out there, what looks like little birds bobbing on the surface of the water, are surfers taking on these gargantuan waves, at the risk of their lives. Its pretty incredible. One of the servers out there is kohl kristensen, who flew here yesterday from hawaii just to catch these waves. The forecasting these days is so good that we can actually see these big storms forming, and it gives us enough time to jump on a plane and come down here. Punta de lobos, for me, is, you know, a pretty magical place. It has a special place in my heart. The point itself is one of the more beautiful places ive ever been, and people travel from All Over The World to come here for a good reason, because the waves are so good. And, it turns out, the surfing bug is contagious. Everyone keeps talking about how amazing these waves are, so ive got my wet suit, about tojump on a surfboard and try and find out for myself. My teacher is a local who introduces novices to the art of surfing every day. I suspect, however, that hes used a rather more coordinated students. Looking. Laughter. It turns out surfing is definitely not as easy as it looks. I got whacked in the face with about ten waves in a row, so i swallowed most of that water, i think. It was super fun, thank you. 0k. Gracias. Luckily, Punta De Lobos has plenty of beautiful views to enjoy for those who arent the most gifted of surfers. But despite its idyllic appearance, this place is not all paradise. In fact, its been the site of a battle between local private interests and conservationalists. Until recently, Punta De Lobos was relatively unknown, but over the past couple of decades its popularity has soared, as a surfing and a tourist destination. These days, 5000 visitors arrive to the point daily during summertime. Perhaps not surprisingly, this has attracted developers, keen to capitalise on the areas new found popularity. Much of the coast is in the hands of private owners, and plans were made for extensive building along the cliffs. A lot of private projects are real estate projects, big ones, were wanting to be developed here. Where were standing here, there will be houses hanging on the cliffs, four buildings seven storeys high, like a surf resort, or not even a surf resort, but huge density of construction and people coming here. We have a real threatening situation for such a special place like this. Matias is a director of the Punta De Lobos foundation a Nonprofit Organisation created among locals to fight the development plans. Along with other conservation bodies, such as save the waves, theyve worked to halt shore side construction and to keep the cliffs open to the public. But that was only their first challenge. It was a mess here. If you put a thousand or 1500 cars here, you could take an hour, an hour and a Half Tojust Go A Mile out back to the highway. And the second thing is that there were no bathrooms here, so people would do their needs in the cliffs, in wherever, and this would be very dirty. The foundation responded by regulating the traffic with a roundabout and installing eco bathroom facilities. Along with a recycled fence along the cliff line, to protect it from the erosion of visitors feet. Community involvement has been a vital ingredient in the success of the conservation project, and some local businesses are adopting a low impact philosophy. This hotel overlooks the Punta De Lobos beach and was built with the aim of causing as little impact as possible on the surrounding area. Unlike earlier hotel plans, its designed to be camouflaged into the hillside and its built with local and recycled materials. Its all in the architecture. We dont want it to be like a big hotel, five storeys tall. We have 12 rooms, we could have had 40, 50, but we wanted to offer something different, something special. This is a very sensitive and special place and spot for us, so we wanted to protect it. Many involved in the efforts here see Punta De Lobos as a landmark conservation case for chile, one that could have a much broader impact than just protecting one favoured surfing spot. We are very eager that Punta De Lobos is successful, because its the example in order to scale this project throughout chile. Theres a need for conservation in chile, we are a developing country, were just getting started, and we can learn from so many mistakes. Punta de lobos could set the example for future developments along the coast. From South America to europe next, and the village of arreau, set high in the french pyrenees. Theyre big on tradition when it comes to cooking here, and theyve got a novel approach to making cakes that dates back over 200 years. Still to come on this weeks travel show.

Coming up shortly, ideas for a great 0ctober escape, and managing money for mexico. But first, Peak Tourist Season in europe is underway and so ive asked britains biggest airports for the days this summer when they expect to be busiest. Here at gatwick, its sunday 13th august, with travellers passing through at a rate of two per second. At manchester, Friday 18th August is the key day, and at Heathrow Airport the busiest in europe the peak will be on sunday 6th august, with over 250,000 passengers arriving and departing. Jane wants to know. At that time of year its hard to go wrong with a trip along either the east or the west coast of the usa, from washington, dc, south to florida, or on the californian coast, from San Francisco to the mexican border. The climate is benign, apart from the odd storm on the east coast, and if you like to swim in the ocean, its about as warm as it gets. 0n the east coast, spend a few days in the us capital and then fly to florida, pick up a rental car and call in at Cape Canaveral for the space coast and miami beach. 0r, on the west coast, explore San Francisco then hire a car for the trip south along california state route 1, with some of the best coastal scenery in the world; Spectacular Cliffs and marine life, which may include sea lions. Highlights include hearst castle, the Hilltop Mansion of a newspaper magnate, the hollywood hills, offering genuine urban wilderness, and at the deep south of california, san diego the ideal city in which to end an adventure. Next, pauline and rob stannard followed my advice to visit nicaragua and simply want to know, where next . Well, if you enjoyed the landscapes and elements of Hard Core Travel in central americas largest country, let me recommend a couple of other alluring Latin American destinations. Cuba and ecuador. Both of them are a little frayed around the edges, with unpredictable but entertaining transport, and have plenty of beautiful towns. In the capitals, havana and quito, youll find echoes of the colonial atmosphere you appreciated in granada and leon in nicaragua. Finally, fran wants to know. Take dollars. In my experience, The Very Best rates for mexican pesos are to be found inside the country. So take in cash and change it at one of the many casas de cambio. If youre heading for cancun and the riviera maya area, then euros or Pound Sterling are recognised and accepted at all the resorts. For the rest of mexico, though, us dollars are the only universally recognised currency. Other foreign funds may be regarded with suspicion. Whether youre travelling on a shoestring or a gold plated credit card, im here to help, so e mail your question to thetravelshow co. Uk and ill do my very best to find you an answer. From me, simon calder, the global guru, bye for now and see you next time. And to finish this weeks programme, were off to canada and the Magdalen Islands in the gulf of saint lawrence. The waters can be treacherous and many ships have run aground on the rocks here, meaning that lots of people who live in the area now are descendants of shipwrecked sailors, who were washed ashore when their ships went down, giving them a unique respect for the sea. My names nancy clark. I was born and raised on this island. As an islander, when we say home, its something very strong and something very rooted, because our ancestry is like all in one island, so our sense of belonging is very strong. Most island families have. It affects them in some way or another. My uncle, her brother, drowned and my fathers brother also drowned, so ive two uncles that have drowned. My fathers brother actually drowned just over there, right across the road. This is where robert best, he would be my grandmothers grandfather, and he shipwrecked from the Channel Islands on a ship called the perry around 1875. He married a local woman. We have very strong ties to the sea, because its generational. So my family, its like six generations of fishermen and also my brothers fifth generation boat builder, so these things are handed down through the families. We have very strong ties to the sea, because its generational. So my family, its like six generations of fishermen and also my brothers fifth generation boat builder, so these things are handed down through the families. I feel so comfortable here and ive never felt that feeling anywhere else. Like knowing every little nook and cranny, and the beach and the cape and just feeling completely at ease. Well, unfortunately thats all weve got time for on this weeks travel show. Coming up next week. Continuing the shipwrecked theme, ades in bermuda, where hell be meeting the team who are digitally mapping the hundreds of underwater lost ships there, for everyone to be able to see online around the world. That was quite literally breathtaking so dojoin us then, if you can, and in the meantime, dont forget you can keep up with us while were out on the road in real time, by signing up to our social media feeds. Details are on the screen now. But for now, from me christa larwood, and the rest of The Travel Show team here in chile, its goodbye. Hello.
