nineteen it's a holiday in the state of berlin so today i want to see what the german capital has on offer for women travelers. and do women really have different needs and wishes while on vacation than men. joining me on today's journey is my team all women of course. would be better at helping me get to know the women sandra travel options berlin has to offer or that the ladies who shape the city i'm eating an author a tour guide a travel agent and many more there's also this to look forward to. actress giuliana gandolfi schmidt. shows us around her hometown brasilia. check

in your data and newman shares impression of her trip to thailand. and we'll take a look at travel destinations that only open their doors to women. in the big city it's home to around four million people so naturally there's a lot to do if you're visiting for first timers it can be tough to figure the city out. is an author who knows berlin like the back of her hand i mean i know better right nice to meet you nice to meet you too this is the book. co-wrote the guide berlin for women only we're meeting at one of her favorite locations to obama's cafe on saidin a. bit about why did you want to meet here of all

places. is a co-working space which i often useful meetings work it has a pleasant atmosphere you can concentrate well but i think it's also kind of cozy. for this all but that was the idea behind berlin for women only. concept a single way to succeed the publisher nicole traveled a great deal as a journalist. and in some cities she didn't have any female friend is. this good was perhaps designed to be a friend at his side to provide tips for all the women for women or he had without excluding men when it gives you tips to discover your own version of. what criteria do a spot at a restaurant a store have to me to end up in your guide. if they're going to an external criteria they comply. personal tips in two thousand and. one interesting thing is

that we have well known protagonists from various areas like design indian fashion . and the cullen area. as well as newcomers and listen and women. and it's this mixture of personal tips that gives the book its authenticity tips to. the social side of alaska as an expert and what makes a good travel destination for women expect as it's happening. this is the diversity which perhaps encompasses femininity a wilder form of femininity from my place to is this was it as something on grass with uncontrollable contradictions. it makes some against us overwhelming desire peace and quiet but then they plunge back into the thick of it kid anything's possible. and has it all this b.s.

that has little women like i once were done with our coffee we should check out the area she lives. i'm going to her but i can't wait. to just top priority is feeling comfortable while traveling her first recommendation is just a few blocks away krupa store front for a small fashion label in. the concept of the store fashion designed for women by women everything is made in and around berlin and materials are imported exclusively from countries in europe. the studio is right behind the store the fashion made here is not unlike unconventional and cool but. it's not a place for bargain hunters. our next stop on the other hand is free not a place you'd expect to find in a travel guide like that special at. is fear

a key element in all her recommendations when where are we. that might sound a little strange at first but it's an unbelievably lovely place one that will miss the cockles of us so we have it's also incredibly beautiful in summer time. it's in the races of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle. i myself moved to berlin some nine years ago none the less i keep discovering new spots around town just like today thanks to chips but of course i too have a long list of recommendations for a visit to the german capital there's a couple of. whether you like culture shopping enjoying the outdoors or eating well berlin has something for everyone. my tip for culture vultures how will. this

contemporary art museum shows works from the second half of the twentieth century to the president over an area of some ten thousand square meters. when i want to shop i head for the streets around the find myself the subway station then it's like a huge open air mall big brands independent designers fashion interior design here you can find it all but where you can also burn through a lot of money here and record time. berlin boasts many parks but my favorite place to enjoy the outdoors is the former airfield at tempelhof airport it's one of the world's biggest inner city green spaces. temple of field is like a cross-section of berlin where everyone has room to do their own thing. last but not least. my restaurant to this she she means friday in hebrew but this

restaurant is full every day of the week tucked away in a nondescript courtyard in kreisberg that offers mediterranean cuisine tasty cocktails and friendly service. for little wouldn't be what it is without its remarkable women. retraces their footsteps in the city center and tell stories you likely won't find in a guidebook the first stop. will be. a statue here serves as a memorial to a protest movement during the nazi era and nine hundred forty three a group of non jewish women protested tirelessly here for the liberation of their jewish husbands they've been locked up in the building that stood where these

modern houses were later built the wives feared their husbands would be deported and stood up against the government a very dangerous thing to do. you know every day several hundred women walked up and down in silent protest some carried signs demanding their husbands release. it went on that way for a week with a thousand women in total after that week the men were released and returned to their wives. it's not entirely clear whether or not the protests cost the government to back down but the women's extraordinary bravery will always be remembered. on we go to museum island it's five museums are jointly recognized as a unesco world heritage site by far the most famous exhibit here is the bust of an ancient egyptian queen. she was

a proud beautiful woman back in the fourteenth century b.c. e. she was said to have had many admirers and some things just never change. then the whole reach for the orient hit the bus tours thick eyeliner and it looks great also in the twenty's lots of people here started applying to pick eyeliner to look like never to teach her the. thought it is not far away the home of another famous woman. so long to the right at the bright yellow building in the middle that's where uncle american lives. her official residence is in the chancellor but when elected medical decided to continue living in her old apartment i was like you know on what most people don't know about america is that she was a squatter twenty shows during her wild youth in the one nine hundred eighty. to go on that was in the g.d.r.

and east berlin she probably had maybe begun to imagine that she would one day be the chancellor of a reunified germany. our last stop is the berlin cathedral the german capital's most famous place of worship has a female master builder. as the first woman to hold the job and only one of many women shaping the city's past and present. and that's the direction we're all about recommendations for women by women not only here and berlin so we are not going dollface smith says a brazilian actress of german descent and wants to show you around the most beautiful spots in her hometown brasilia. hatsumi hello and welcome to brasilia the capital of brazil my name is julie and i'm going to if you miss about an actress and my family comes from germany but i

was born here and today i'm going to show you my city. here's in view of it we're in the government district the center of power three power. this is most important buildings are located here these are down to the palace to the to the seat of government. the supreme coolish and to national congress. the my friend good boy most of the buildings which is. an icon of modern times that in architecture thanks to him brasilia is on the world's cultural heritage list. i know a lot of friends that it is a planned city it's central avenue it's called the monumental access a show monumental in portuguese years because the most important monuments and

ministries found. the other end of the monumental axis is prison is landmark the t.v. tower. that's two hundred twenty four meters it's the city's tallest structure. and that has only been the capital of brazil since nine hundred sixty before that it was rio de janeiro. he would do this if he was built from scratch in the virtually unpopulated center of the country. although how does the fact of the t.v. tell him ok just hold on weekends with food and music. if you can find a snack that's really popular in brazil. and how did you come to. that that's sugarcane juice and try and pastry but appetite.

was really. bad. i was. he speaking egypt i play the music brazil's famous for some. i. can't think being this is like i don't know you can stroll along all right into. this and want me. i know but i know it's an artificial lake it was created to supply the city with i would say that's. the reason it was built there was little water in the area.

so yeah here i bid you farewell i hope you enjoyed the two and what's coming up is that some time but until then the right. time for my next date i mean back she works for women fair travel an agency that organizes trips only for women she told me to come to princess cheesecake a cafe that at least judging by the name is a great fit for today's show here you'll find sweet cakes made from top notch natural ingredients and delicious fair trade coffee. that kind of awareness is also reflected in offers at the women's travel agency. what's the concept behind your agency by women as women for travel that focuses on

women not only the female travelers but also the women in the destination country. for every trip we book a female travel guide who can really let you explore the land and you're always meeting people there's also the sustainability aspect. not just you know high interest credit what you like of travel means to women have that are different than those of men because what you're describing definitely sounds appealing to travelers of all genders. but once gone is that it because we don't really consider men's needs because we've never had to deal with what we look at what our women customers will. and ninety percent of them are women travelling on their own who are to go in a group to have contact with others and share their experience for us. in germany women only travel rose out of the feminist movement so around one nine hundred eighty before i was even born. in one function

feminists and lesbians wanted to have spaces for themselves also women's hotels and women's museums sprung up though it was a model that scattered. all into the state but today demand continues to grow and we now have one thousand three hundred women clients per year. not one to make it one of them is security an issue at all. as a da is it's not that fundamental to be honest we might get a few inquiries if something's happened in a destination country then a client might call but with one thousand three hundred clients that happens maybe twice a year. not so it's not a matter of somebody being scared to travel on their own it's more a question of wanting to travel with other women absolutely not it's about getting to know other women along the way. and thanks a lot for the talk my pleasure. looks like the demand for travel arrangements

focusing on women is on the rise now men are the reason why women want to be among themselves while travelling they're starting to find that more and more options are out there. the spanish islands of is the perfect place to party some bodies. and swim. and starting in april it will have yet another attraction because first we mean only hotel. men and children aren't allowed. reactions to the concept difficult. like really like it's pure relaxation without being ogled by men and having a break from the kid. it's great. but it's nice for women who want a holiday on my your get peace without being pestered by a man on the other hand if you're here looking for a partner good stuff not only not the right route have to be when you fall and when women around their own things get competitive in the evenings they'll be saying

that's what she wears earrings and jewelry has she got it about shoes it's always a competition. even if not everyone is thrilled by the idea of a spanish chain plans to open its women only hotel in porto cristo eastern coast by this spring it expects to have thirty nine rooms ready to accommodate female guests . has nothing to do feminism. to all women. friends relatives. all women inclusive hotel. hotel just for women may be the latest thing in my yorker but it's nothing new. in finland women even have an entire island all to themselves. and hildegarde bening opened her women only hotel by the baltic sea over

a decade ago she welcomes mothers and daughters lesbian couples friends and more. noisy groups a rapidly growing one is widowed women travelling on their own for the first time after the death of their heart so. not everyone is asking vince does management here but the concept behind the women only hotel will prove to be a hit. to attract many women looking for a holiday we're taking away from it all including bad husbands and children. next i'm going to visit the show up league in crowds it's europe's biggest cultural center for women and has a long feminist tradition and berlin created by squatters decades ago the center

has reinvented itself over the years on various levels you'll find plenty of offers aimed at women from counseling to sports to carpentry workshops here women can build their own furniture without a guy mansplaining from the sidelines because they aren't allowed in here. one of the centers highlights is the hamam a turkish bath and berlin you'll find a wide variety of spots many of them offering days or time slots reserved specifically just for women in the show cool focally that's every day besides the mom you can treat yourself to a massage. work up a sweat in the sauna. or just relax in one of the lounges. vacation is the best time lax and unwind hour we were down to newman is living proof she and the girlfriend travel to the island of co chang in thailand and brought back a video make you want to run now on to your nearest travel agent for it yourselves for some serious beauty.

it's getting late time to bring the day to a close and of berlin i can even do that surrounded only by women. that don't get. me to thinking it is berlin's only bar that's only for women it's big in the lesbian community but every woman is welcome to take part in the workshops and recitals or come to concerts or parties tonight it's also night. and the friends you'll find the bar and plenty of good company. were line is one of the world's most interesting places for members of the community it's a historically open minded city home to a vibrant clear scene the city's bars and clubs are legendary and known far and wide but there's also lots of colorful celebrations of pride all over town that.
