in pictures than out in nature and we finally managed to get the kind of shots we were waiting for. now we can treat the whole family to photos that will make them a bit envious to the one that put those. different hotels it takes six days to get from kirkuk as in the far north to bergen in southern norway where the trip. the call. was set out again in the evening and head back north with new adventure seeking passengers on board. from the wilds of the norwegian coast to the desolate spaces that once the round of the berlin wall it's been almost twenty nine years since the wall opened up and the divided city was once again reunited now there are little traces from where the wall once stood and the empty spaces that once labelled deathtraps are now bustling with activity but thanks to one photographer hans mendo we can be reminded of the
2:43 am
way things used to look. berlin's potsdamer platz was once a wasteland traces of which are now hard to find even for hans to be amanda who spent years photographing it. possible to locate the exact position today really very difficult. the kiosks were over there. that was back then in the shadow of the wall or across the street didn't exist this is box from a straw. released must be the spot approximately. he's talking about the vantage point for one of his photos the image doesn't show what one would expect the death strip barriers border guards men to wasn't interested in the berlin wall itself his focus was on the barren spaces along the border the finger hung on these areas of waste land had a very graphic quality. oh there were wide open spaces empty

buildings the wall was like a ribbon and as it cut through the city it created urban landscapes that were unique in the world. i was fascinated by this incredibly hard division documentary that was very important to me. after he finished school mendel left his home in rural lower saxony to study photography in west berlin the city's residents had been surrounded by the wall since one thousand nine hundred sixty one and had learned to live with it or rather to ignore it as best they could it to make pastoral islands developed at its ends. is a newcomer mendel had no experience of the wall then a girlfriend took him to the frontier of the island city of west berlin. he was entranced by the no man's land he found there in the fall of one nine hundred seventy eight mended began his photographic exploration of the walls periphery for
2:45 am
months he meandered alongside the one. hundred sixty kilometer long barrier through the city it was a lonely journey when you see it in the pictures there are hardly any people in them and that's not because i asked people to move out of view there simply wasn't anyone but. another scene of desolation was the former railway station on the top down who today it seems like the wall sucked the life out of vibrant squares and spaces that once lay in the city center. the image document the scars of the divided city places forever lost all the pictures exude calm mendus journey along the wall was nothing of the kind. where you knew all your go off on to the viewing platform or look over and see the border fortifications the broad strip in between the east german border guards with
2:46 am
adults and you would know this was the death street where people had lost their lives trying to flee linda's photos are included in a new book on the wastelands along the berlin wall a window on the past that offers insight into the present. the former restaurant fine house hoot for example was the only building on potsdamer platz that survived the war and the war it's disappeared nevertheless in the mid all the new buildings it's here in the former heart of the city that the photos show how deeply the wall cut into the city's fabric. despite its redevelopment puts them up plants is still not a very inviting place haunted perhaps by the wasteland it once was. but still berlin has certainly come a long way since then art well time now for my favorite part of the show when we get a sneak peek into someone's house will abode in today we are heading to the mediterranean
2:47 am
island of malta this is where one british family chose to settle after being constantly on the move now they enlisted an architect to build their dream home and anyone who visits will quickly notice that wood is their material of choice. this house is a typical example of modern multis architecture which features clearly defined structures to smooth bright exterior. the edwards live here northeast of the letter with their daughter isabel who lent her name to the family home. welcome to my health. from the front door you can see all the way through to the garden and the swimming pool this visual access makes the outside area appear as part of the living space the edwards moved into the house in twenty sixteen. russell an internet expert from britain and his wife lorraine have travelled
2:48 am
extensively and moved house thirteen times already here they finally feel at home for the first time. i may not tread lightly i like. it just flows really nicely so i always feel. at home there's something lovely about waking up here every day and pretty much the sun is going to be shining and that's really nice. because the sun makes you happy. in order to bring the natural born clean sign the owners relied completely on board as a design element. the entrance area is almost completely paneled with oak and looks like a huge sculpture with indirect lighting. i was worried that they would take a lot of my space because they were talking as well behind these units you can storage things so we have the furniture actually here so i thought that either will
2:49 am
take the space of the entrance but like i said you aren't witnesses these looks fantastic. the white nishan of wooden wall in the foyer is mirrored by a similar shaped shell. and the kitchen. the west trying to put the house all together because white is very clean very i don't know i mean money speak but for me to have a need to be that warm so they're all here was a fantastic idea and i think that is different to any other kitchen is the sign for me i like like that. the architect wanted the sonic dining table to form in design with the kitchen. but that proved to be impractical to walk around this thing so i think. that's a long way so what we tend to do is return to pull this down
2:50 am
a little bit and then we can we can quickly skip through that but that which makes it a lot easier when you're putting your feet on the table every day and stuff like that so your architects a great idea is that sometimes you change little things here on. the staircase of the multi-story building with four hundred square metres of living space is decorated with a motif that features the plaques in space perspective. the master bedroom on the first floor is decorated in quiet patient earth tones in harmony with the wooden structures on the ground floor. tiles is the color scheme in the living room. and built in wardrobe is hidden behind the dark blue wooden wall the living room is the focal point of the house. normally we'd sort of turn the lights down and just relax is one of the if i don't

so while sober sensation of events are really suited to these times of the things haunting without drinking coming loss of a. feeling it was the revellers nonsense of some top notch because ponting on an empty stomach is never much fun. but if this is moroccan beetroot salad. served with pantethine chips. and demented that's. that is followed by the main cost the going fish and chips which is jackfruit as a fish subsidies perfect full health conscious policy make has to not only shun booze but it also animal products. that are just about as i thought it was fish it for us it's for the consistent sounds like meat it was delicious far far look up there was a pretty good for me for a male i was surprised because i'm not keen on vegetables at all it's a new kind of experience is that it was. the vague in food is light enough and the
