a special affair for reasons you look at all child has been taking part for two decades. it's the same every time every year you arrive at the name knowing they'll be lots of people dressed in light through just and suddenly the person see. of white one all that's the goal was. to hours earlier on a boat on the river san. siro and his dinner companions are making the final preparations aside from the food they put the finishing touches on their outfits subdued or extravagant anything goes as long as it's white but there are plenty of other guidelines to follow. for the book with a full that there are lots of rules that bring a table to people chairs table cloth white dishes and classy glassware. but these very strict rules make people feel invested in the event and of course i'm

not go for a no for something it's like making a baby you hadn't really planned for you have to assume responsibility and hope you will be happy and develop well that's pretty much what happened. to the priestess a person. for ciro beloved. is still a dinner among friends it's just that his circle of friends has grown exponentially he's even learned to love the strict rules. don't often. rebel makes for bigger if i can put it that way sure it's rigorous but look at all the happy folks this is what we're spent three nights i was together a lot of time preparing it's great this is you've got a. baby that's the secret ingredient that's made that e-mail so successful it's about enjoying the moment but with style just the kindness of off eva the french are famous for and what better place to experience it than in paris. well now

the other. shock rocker alice cooper aerosmith sleep guitarist joe perry and american actor johnny depp performed together in berlin on monday. the three stars have formed a rock super group called hollywood vampires they're currently on a european tour which is scheduled to wind up in the room next month. and. daffodils are a delicate flower and have been the subject of writers for centuries william shakespeare for example wrote about it in a winter's tale but there's probably no other place on this earth where this flower is celebrated more than in austria every year a daffodil festival takes place with straws tourists from as far away as asia but

we were also on hand for the festivities. iraq. and now old. and the snowman in spring they're just some of twenty four figures decorated with daffodils floating on lake outers the in austria. it's one of the venues for the country's biggest flower festival the highlight of the year in this region. some twenty thousand visitors come to watch the annual spectacle. dispersed through in my life and i promise for longer than you know how large it is both of us to have in all candor the north of really our most in the world was supposed experience for my life if i did this i'm president made such an effort for us all and we're grateful everyone came together on that link of the. film with us that i thought the animals dressed in later

hosen and traditional costumes were very very funny and very enjoyable and this is a ruthless yards. in fact a great deal of effort and tens of thousands of daffodils each figure. often the sculptors work through the night to help the carnage knows this from experience. she's been taking part in the daffodil festival for some twenty years she says that the dales are an ideal material for this craft. male see can replace the hope it's because they have no leaves they have one long smooth down that's heavier than the blossom so they hang on nicely as of a mother flowers have to have really long stem so they'll stay hanging in the frame but it doesn't work as well with other flowers like that on them due to. every spring i'll sell and south come a good region is carpeted in the fragrant see a flower as the white poet's not as

a spoon is here from it made to make june the definition. as for the floats a pick by hand this does no damage to the flowers it actually helps them reproduce for the next year to keep the process fresh the participants have to handle them very carefully never an employee piece and i found it very important that they be picked up no more than three days ahead of time they have to be refrigerated and kept dry because if they get wet they'll turn brown. in three preparations are in full swing lots of volunteers help thread the flowers they take three to four taffeta blossoms tie them together and stick them through the next hole which gives them ideal support at least a bit so shark lives in the f.e.n.'s common just for the festival daffodils are one of her favorite flowers and this is a childhood dream come true. if you haven't done quietly or up on the mountainside early this morning gathering flowers it wasn't easy our shoes are all wet but

everybody was happy with what we've brought even if the blossoms aren't absolutely perfect now about you threading them is a great experience a feeling of working together. normally the floats must consist of at least seventy percent daffodils this year a pull harvest prompted organizers to relax the rules so other blossoms like days is a natural materials like moss could be used as well. the participants in the bald house a patch and i'm making the most of it this is where all the figures animal of fantasy are presented to the public when it comes to creativity the sky's the limit . what matters is winning over the public and the twenty member jury. who is prepared to be at them scott the bill there's an evaluation catalog comprising seven points including the deaf it will stick ness the overall impression and the size of the group those are the seven different points in the bowl so you can weigh up how well

a float will do everything we thought of on the block to. if you're. in the contest for the best it's a runoff between the rock who the owl and the clown. rounded shapes give contestants an edge with the judges because they're harder to cover over with blossoms but that's just part of it. by using sky stars i can tell it has to be funny something good natured the whole thing has to make a good impression of a compass gone so i could sleep. in the end the biggest winner is always that daffodil itself and this hope the bread making mountains and lakes of austria. i would have picked the raccoon as well our next up a painter who has been known to wow some of hollywood's biggest stars like sylvester stallone or will smith german artist a moloch cast and pains with a passion that sometimes overtakes other priorities in his life but he makes no

exceptions for his paintings who even go without sleep as we found out when we met the artist in his studio. to. paint eat sleep and paint again carsten biden boy. hardly does anything else it turns out more than three hundred paintings a year aside from a three day break for christmas he's holed up in his dusseldorf studio day and night probably from a perfume i might say i won't be able to make the barbecue at the neighbors by five o'clock i'm too involved here in the studio and she'll say don't worry about it it was yesterday at five o'clock. it doesn't matter what time it is. in that sense no. when i'm totally involved in a painting i can just say it's already five o'clock i have to stop now and.

then i picture would say hey look dude keep on painting. this artist doesn't feel so much captivated by painting as driven. he does have a partner a child but he's married to his canvases and acrylics. if he ever dropped off to sleep while painting. if i thought about yes but don't tell anybody and the monument i really have of her and the few times of my head leaning on the painting and since i generally use acrylics i have to get into the shower with the paintings like this and wash my hair. but it doesn't really hurt the paintings. a lot of. the impetus for his images may come from a commission or simply inspiration his patrons can usually request a subject and have a say in how it's done the prices are negotiable to remodel or through from your

life or if someone at an exhibition were to stand in front of a picture for three hours. just dying to have it but didn't have the cash. and then if somebody else came along with keys to a portion said all right you could load this one into the car it's mine now a lot more than again i might say maybe next time and give the painting to the guy who's in love with it. and a pack of cigarettes on top. on occasion mulcaster departs from his usual format and paints buildings like this one into so dark it was a commission from the city. his colors also look good on clothes as celebrities he's gotten to know in los angeles can personally attest. sylvester stallone wears an original mark austan blazer his agent met the artist at an event and share personally sent a blouse to do the door for carson to illustrate to the tune of more than two

thousand euro's. and i had some effect on the if there's a spot in it then final but somehow work it into the piece so it is what it is when the house was music. scene here is motorhead to late frontman lemmy kilmister with his own porch and by carsten the artist has just returned from con where he was busy networking with stars. groups move on from inject will smith and german jackson have noticed my works like i'm the world's only penta one but it was cool flying down for the weekend. michael costin from dusseldorf gathering fans from all walks of life. it's almost summer time so there's good reason to celebrate but as always it's the

location location location that is the deciding factor when it comes to a really fun party for the latest episode in our high five series we found some party venues that are so unusual that even the most seasoned of party goers might be surprised so here are. five ordinary locations that make for a great party venues. this could well be the world's smallest nightclub number five on our list is a good old telephone booth get it out with strobe lights a fog machine and your favorite tunes there are six tele discos worldwide two of them here in berlin concert your calling and a party starts you even get a photo as proof. if you're lucky you might stumble upon

a party almost by chance for example on the underground. subway parties are a popular trend in several european cities and they're in fourth place on our list although they may look spontaneous they're usually organized flash mobs but even in techno crazy berlin rocking out on the subway is still a fairly rare event. this party is a real roller coaster ride well not exactly it's a cable car ride complete with a d.j. . turn disco clocks and third on our list these days it's how the alpine resort. in austria celebrates the start of the winter season. instead of a commute how about a celebration there are no traffic jams here just jamming out it's number two on

our list of unexpected places to throw a party out obama. admitted early and isn't usually this chill but in summer two thousand and ten the city of s. and decided to turn over the a forty to party goers for six hours maybe this could be another way to cut those diesel emissions. grocery shopping there's no getting around it a chore that's usually something of a yawn. but then suddenly a party breaks out strobe lights a disco beats right between the fresh veggies and the freezer section it tops our list of memorable party locations in the netherlands and here in berlin the supermarket owner didn't mind they might be rocking the house down most things on the shelves came through unscathed.

now there are many places in the world where it seems like. time has stood still but the remote village of gaza who are in the feral islands is certainly one of them denmark maintains control of the our chapelle ago and the only eighteen residents actually call guzzled on the our home because suction of a tunnel in recent years has connected it to the rest of the island that has been drawing interest to the hamlet so we went there to take a closer look. goes the duluth is one of the most remote and one of the most photogenic villages on the ferro i think.

its population numbers less than twenty. one of those residents is geese legally and fifth he lives in the old mail station where the postman used to work he had to walk over the mountain there. is six o'clock in the grass all the way all work and down to the other side and then to shower walk to bring the post. so yeah it's longer work but a lot of. a tunnel was blasted through the mountains in two thousand and four and now the postman drives to the village tourists also come through attracted by the villages renowned beauty. in fifth likes to welcome visitors to be home he invites them in for a postman's coffee as it's known it's an old tradition. but it's moved

past many years to. take people with him when he was walking ok because when i watch a cure to get it right. here kitchen dry their socks getting heat and drinking coffee talking so my wife likes to keep that tradition of his wife and damn next time is the last postman's granddaughter she worked in mainland denmark for several years is a textile design and she's now back to reintroduce the pharaohs each to their own traditional wool. this is so beautiful and i really want to work with it and then we all used for in the old it's this is all of first close i mean we didn't have this kind of cloth the old days we had this one here and this is really good to have here for a while and to move and. so i think if you spend more and i want to teach people to people again but for us and what you could use it for the

family moved to the new in late twenty sixteen and nearly doubled the population little miles was the first baby to be born in the in forty three years so. it's a life in touch with nature gisli in filth has a project obvious on. the origin of. icelandic. chickens. whatever you like to call them a. very very old type of chicken they are small. i think oh well the chicken has to make a chicken because the federal people have lost their original chickens and they are probably the same type of response because this is the type of wiking spoke with them from europe to high strength. of course also here.

they have died out or put in the mix that way something like that so i'm just bringing them back. that's the goal. if you project works out the sleek linfield is also planning to breed back geese and mention greens. it would appear place for residents to go back to their roots. and with that we come to the end of another show don't forget to keep up with the program on our facebook page or for me and the rest of us here euro max as always thanks for watching i'll see again tomorrow. next time under your own max a multi-sensory meal. on the spanish island of its billing as the world's most expensive restaurant projections flight installations and virtual reality transport

we must fully treat the plane. going to the germans every week on t.w. . you can tell a lot about a society by its garbage. the first six months was for the rich. but for many poor people it offers their only chance of survival. and i could be lunch for today just like that. our reporters travel to nairobi and work and meet people who know the true value of garbage. it has created a thriving parallel economy. what does all this mean for economic inequality around the world you guys are starting place want to get the response to that statement should be yes we are starting plants won't be here
