she lives on the bigger house, but the real new div just reimbursing the watch now on the hello and welcome to focus on your of thank you for joining us today. my name is liz, sho, russia is intensifying. it's a tax on ukraine, which is the cause of tension in neighboring finland. the country shares a long border with russia and joined nato last year, and security among the finish population has been growing even in the capital city, helsinki. finland is prepared for the worst case scenario with bunker is like this

one here, available to offer safety. but in the meantime, the some of the shelters have been put to a quite surprising and creative use. they currently serve as an underground venue for a much more peaceful purpose. it takes just half a minute to reach another world, 13 meters beneath the streets of helsinki, the labrons of tunnels and bunkers under. he'll think he was designed to protect 900000 people from missile attacks, chemical weapons and radiation in the event war. but that's not all welcome to one of helsinki most popular playgrounds for both children and adults. it's a hockey field and digital cafeteria and parking lot to poland. want some people even celebrate their birthdays here. this is a daily life for us. we've grown up with having these bomb shelters, so it's not,

we don't really think about it. and the whole thing is like filled with, with under an own under ground world. this bunker in the can you, me, district is one of finland's largest 2 soccer stadiums which fits in science, a civil defense officer, toner, brass sites in the event of wars. if the facility can quickly be converted into a fully functioning care of each shelter, normal scenario is spent sheltering each time is required between some hours and some days on most of our shelters. we can make the sheltering periods quite much higher blocks sheltering period creates different problems. one of the biggest problem is to hate that one person creates when i create up approximately 100 watts of heat all the time. so here's a problem for 6000 people to live in

a bunker like this in an emergency. nelson helsinki. the federal beneath the city is solely granite and nice. the bunker was carved into the underground rock, but is not the only solid, but also cool. in the event of war, the large calls can be converted into smaller rooms if needed. so sizes of people can lift down here for longer periods, but just the above ground. they will be people dying, they will, they be both available by saying they will be 6 people that will be glad to people that will be sending people every function and as a normal and society happens within the shelters. finland chairs the board of russia over 1300 kilometers long for a long time to refuse to join me to the war. and ukraine changed that the majority of fins called for more protection and greater security. i would say the fetus

people have like, rather if this got this boy added to it to the situation. so we know we know that there are very states risk always it has to be in there like teams being, i'm going to independence. it's realized in the 2nd world war, but rush it right to into bad feeling. and it could really happen some day also. that's all we know about that, but it's not something we're like actively, you know, fear. it's not something that we think about in our everyday life. yes, memories, happy to be a weekend of what is known as the winter war when finland fought against the soviet union from 1939 to 1940 finland emerged from the conflict with its sovereignty and tax, but paid a high price in casualties and territory. the peace of court noon is the treaty of moscow marks in the dark chapter and relations between the 2 countries. this monument and central helsinki commemorates the sacrifices of the winter war.

during the conflict, finland passed its 1st civil defense lot even to the old public buildings and private buildings over a certain size must have a shelter as though some interest in total think he has more than 5000 a year. we'd shelters with winds for almost a 1000000 people the we do, i was hoping that the name will be deuced, would stay what we need to do it. so his story has been shown us that it is possible. and when something is possible, it might happen. and the people of helsinki want to be prepared. unprotected 13 meters. the in the bunkers didn't use their capital. the, the opposition in turkey is celebrating its big win against him. park is president our to one. he was not on the ballot in the recent local elections. but i,

let's see the election results as an indication the voters are increasingly rejecting. are the ones policies, especially the turkish economy, has suffered greatly with inflation currently at nearly 70 percent dense or goods is among those affected by the sharp prize in the costs of living. she's hoping for a better financial future for herself and for those paying to be entertained by her to the belly. dancing is goos. primary source of income every evening. the belly dancer performs and bars and restaurants and is done book. the art form has been entered training people on the prosperous for centuries. but cool has noticed it's becoming increasingly difficult for guests to kick back and enjoy the show. these days they really think about exactly how many meals and what drinks and how much

they'll order it was different before on the weekend. they'd really let loose but those days are over. traditionally, dances are paid solely by the guests putting money into their outfits this evening . most are giving 100 leering notes. the equivalent of about 3 years. each girl who prefers we use are stage name knows that many can't afford to give more. but there are other problems to do to television, the band belly didn't seen on television, which are the are, everything's getting more and more conservative. jessica, so that can by me, the landlords no longer want to read to me because i earn my money its ability to answer all the people that they say, why should i rent to someone like that? after dancing through the night and appearing and 5 bars can relax a bit when she gets home with a colleague, she looks back to

a time when turkey was more liberal and business was better, fairly dancing. she says, was it one time a respected profession? already on 10000 down just on the line and that was when i was little, the whole family spent new year's eve in front of the tv fascinated and watched the belly dancers walk over the child. teen mental. these attitudes have an impact on us all in the, in all of them. believe it's not just us dancers size. we're going to put all the women in turkey cousins on that issue. the country is becoming more conservative with each ear that passes in at the same time the economy is slumping, the turkish lyric continues to lose more of its value against the dollar and the euro. pardon the, anyone can afford to go out in the evening anymore. so there are more and more empty tables and the pubs bars and entertainment venue is somebody. we usually

check out a few places 1st and then pick the cheapest event or used to go out once a week. these days it's once a month to continue a price increases for alcohol and $50.00 entertainment sector, particularly hard. the prices have low to more and more people making their own alcohol at home. to do so much on the go needs to start getting ready for the evening shows. she doesn't know how long she'll be able to continue earning a living, dancing. she gets fewer tips and has more expensive course to me up to use the up to them. my customs get more expensive every month. how much stronger come storage i the issue that i'm going to sit in and the cornerstones and the tailor tells me that the, the dollar stronger can wash the material in the sequence are more expensive. if i were able, i would buy ahead and just stuck up, but i can't so the only thing left for good to do is wait for better

times in the interest payment sector. for more recognition and above all, for better pay the the 4 people looking for a vacation off the beaten path. this is just the right spot. we tell the end village of quinetta offers that peaceful get away where one can relax and enjoy nature. it's very secluded and located high up in the italian outs and then i was middle im is one of very few people who live in quinetta says always loved the tiny village. even though getting there can be quite exhausting and takes a lot of determination. but to her, that's exactly what makes the place so special. high above lake como lies cordero, an isolated village up in the alps. only 9 people still live here. atlanta goose,

middle lee and her all study are the backbone of the small community. there are only 2 ways to get to the village atlantic, whose middle east preferred route is a 2 hour hike from the valley on the shores of lake como. up 2600 steps. lot of i can get a call. go glad to stress that builds up when i'm down in the valley. mountains away as i climb higher for the good of you just wonderful. when i get to cold air, i just feel so light. then there's the option to helicopter it, costs around $300.00 euros per flight, though that's why it is only used when food or other goods need to be transported to the village for herself and the others in just 2 minutes. it all lands and seen . it could, there are 824 meters above sea level. there

are no roads here. the inhabitants of the small village community are the last of their kind to live in the alps, the around and such isolation. davis peas, no. these goats are grazing somewhere up in the mountains. at 45. he's the youngest person here in cordero and is eager for change. i get 0. i went the road so that we can keep the village alive say so treating it like a magical landscape or a postcard 2nd time is not helpful. because living in such seclusion as anything but romantic, says peas, no. the only people who don't have to live here all the time, see it that way. utilities, people to come with you for a tour. it's. it's paradise as far as easily, but i see the village dying. you'd place him already. what is one supposed to do here? where it is once in 10, if there was a road, you could extract rocks to get how it would with the project, essentially what,

how would things get into the valley? boesky was on our shoulders. like now we meant that we put the electrical spell out over and yet there is plans to stay here with his goats because he loves the mountains. after the helicopter drops its load, atlanta must carry the food to her or steady yet no road. no other means of transportation, just her back and forth because i'll follow up on it is strenuous but it's worth it because it also gives you so many fulfilling moments as a matter of given take on. i go on to her or study, i'll be now in the center of the village and to our phones up in only the village elder has spent almost her entire life in cordero around 600 people once lived. here phones has watched the village slowly die out. she's grown old with it

. still planning on 15 grand things get here now. i'm almost 95. i've never smoked in mine. do the same thing at all, but i never eat food that's too greasy. all the people on the phone that she hopes to see people return a david vinnish like what stories of that it would be nice if they built the road hostile people fire. there's plenty of space up here by anybody could build more houses and then more people could live here. spivey, i'm ok let's hope the road is built soon. whatever happens out of funds that wants to stay in her home village here far above lake como goose mit only gets to work in the kitchen at post w. pina. thanks to the friends of cordero association for restaurant is open all year round and is very popular. she believes that there was remoteness is what

makes it attractive. why it's in data for us and it's not everyone takes the deep pass up here in the mountains. those who come have a connection to the mountains and that's what i want done. yeah, they like the fact that it's hard work to get up here. the phone, you have to earn what we need it. that's what i like about it. now what can we do? it 1st, if we're looking at got you instead of getting through to the villages decide they want a road built in west. i will respect that no boss, but it would no longer be the place for meetings that both so similar. that's what i left so far. there are no plans for a road so could narrow will likely remain the village at the end of the world for a long time to come. now to a landscape that is quite the opposite of ideal lake, mass of sink holes are swallowing up plots and even grace sides. the residence of the town of to been in southern poland are faced with what looks like the aftermath of an earthquake. but in fact, it was caused by mining sides that where the commission decades ago this very unsafe region is home to general verify,

collab check. she's among those who are forced to live with the effects of the disaster of the student. the sink holes were so big that entire buildings collapsed to show, but people are afraid for their lives. there are a lot of homes here. have a house like this collapses. if someone will die. yeah. like, you don't make, you know, a nose way. it's still safe should be near a small city in southern poland, sits above a massive cavity left behind by the coal mining industry. and it has gradually collapsing like the giant sink hole in this property, which has been hastily filled in yeah, no, you have sky looks

a few houses a week on john paul, the 2nd street. he lives with his wife and son for whom the move to the country side. he's very worried. he's trying to hold back into resistible force. yeah. supervisors. yeah, i have just built in the soil here. i am jo, everything was level here and now you can see that it has sunk again a 2nd. i'm definitely afraid. you know. yeah, i go to bed. well, don't know what the grounds will collapse under arrest. the next morning club is just brought to you and you're going to or if it will be a meet or deeper, could you tell me your budget, you're dropping it down or met that or to utilize? no. that should be in your coal. mine was close at the turn of the millennium, and since then, the underground shots are filled up with water and stuff in the ground, which is started giving. we disagree, the art was hit during the summer. dozens of grieves disappeared into the sink hole

. a great shock for general visa collette checked her family grief with spirits, but she can no longer visit her husband's too. right. it's hard. my husband died just recently. the all she has left is the food to on her food. and the hope that the graveyard will be restored soon to be a city hall is in a state of emergency. some are already talking about it. back to ration mariano. swipe a culture is under pressure to take action because it gives you a seller's cio. what's on the, when the, we're paying for the mistakes of the past? you know, all of our mistakes made during the underground coal mining phase. we put on the shops were in operation, the consequences were forgotten or ignored of the put salvage center. then when i look at all the documents today is the i believe all of this could have been

for seen to tops of each a number of properties and the time have been cordoned off. people are not allowed to enter of the stay tuned. company specializes in cleaning up damage caused by the mines. holes are being bored, 70 meters into the ground. the geologists are certain that their method will prevent future singles just goes to submit that. so we're going to fill these cavities with a mixture of dusty cement and sand to eliminate the possibility of the land thinking in the future, them into a gas. cool, thanks a beautiful so, but we will continue doing this until we are confident that the area is safe for everyone to stay with a movie from valve by just doesn't, is with that is our goal, and that is what we're going to achieve. the provide you types like these ones that being some kinda current everywhere and should be new and thousands of cubic meters of cement that being poured to fill the cavities. the mere hopes that will help he

feels it's the duty of the publish date is let me have them on government, show me off the sure mean, and i have no intention of using the cities resources to solve the problem is up and over, which we had no influence on the consequences of which we are unfortunately suffering. now didn't we see me but enough for you bought a few days later. the grand caves and again, here's bread from an apartment building the residence of should be near. continue to live in fear on average, women live longer than men, but these british ladies did not want to grow old alone. and so they took matters into their own hands and came up with a special housing project in north london residence must meet 2 requirements. they should be women, and over 50, over the years, the place has become a home for

a true community and the friendships we set out to meet the senior citizens who are saying no to isolation and yes to living life to the fullest, are enjoying day to day life together, heavy argument and charlotte valesh, i'd love to meet up and there, shared garden we will share this desire to be part of the community. and you know, especially when you get to my age, i didn't go walking up much anymore just don't for everybody, but i think it's wonderful. it's been wonderful for me. there are 26 women over 50, living in new ground, co housing in north london beach has her own apartment. but there's always someone around in the communal lounge to chat with at $94.00 heavy arch into the oldest. she joined 12 years ago after her partner passed away. and i didn't want certain that to move in to any sort of residential facility. and at the same time,

i realized that my daughters with going to worry about me all the time being on my own. and then i began to worry about my daughters worrying and i thought it was time to look around for some tentative way of living. there must be something it took 18 years for this vision of a small housing, a state to finally become a reality. the founders have to fight against a lot of bureaucracy and against the misconception that so many older people in one place could overburden the social and care services by avoiding isolation and supporting each other. i think we've probably, well, definitely been less of a button on social services. then we would have been if we'd each lift going out of heavy arch and can easily pop over to visit her neighbor or hillary vernon smith,

an artist. oh men is looking to just yes for both women, it's reassuring to know that someone is always around in case they need any help to judge. and i think as i age i, if i'm going to help out other people, i think it slightly easier to help women than it is to help my male friends. and. and women are in much more need of housing as i get older than men. certainly my generation, it was the women who usually lived longer than the men, so were left on their own. men are certainly welcome, but only as visitors we have lots of miles visitors. we have brothers, we have grandchildren. and you know, we have gotten into a mile where you,

so we have a lot of men around but they cannot live here. living only with women is appealing so many. surely. guardianship is in the mid sixties and recently applied for rim. but there was a long waiting list. she doesn't see the no men rule as a problem. if one gets involved with someone on the serious level, then as in any way should you have that conversation, where should we live? she doesn't, she doesn't work. the women are proud of the community they have built, they're completely some organized. all decisions are made collectively without hierarchies. when there's 26 of you know, it's sometimes it's hard to get everybody's opinion. it's hard to get consensus. you can end up talking about very small things actually very well. it seemed like kind of tea things like it might be finding community at times. even if it is

occasionally difficult. the women seat themselves as pioneers and hope that others will follow in their footsteps. community instead of boredom, i mean support instead of isolation, they, each one of us is very different from everybody else, and that's great. but we will share this desire to be part of the community to look out for each other without looking off to reach on. that, as this is precisely how friends heavy, urgent, and charlotte polish want to live self determined and independent into old age is beautiful. and that brings us to the end of focus on europe for today. as always, we have more stories from across the continent. so be sure to follow us on social media. thank you very much for joining us today. my name is live,
