the columbus climate festival over a 1000 climbers from all over the world. clownish inventor of austria is in her element on the rugged armor. plate. collingwood's this little knows this special because the setting against a sea is so unique and there's just so many routes for every kind of climbing for every grade and different techniques and styles you can climb for years and still not cover everything here out of the puddles out of the cattle. currently the island has catalogued 3700 groups about 200 new ones are added every year the climbers take their starting positions in pairs whoever does the most routes where there are no checks this is about having fun and about trying out new things so.

i came to college knows because i really like doing news and the sea and also i wanted to enjoy my overhanging go days because i really like overhanging climbing and i wanted to try to do 1st. the climbers are drawn to the occipital shaped box kind of tough how do you say good to you and her friend came all the way from france to climb here. to many it's magnificent and very special to climb on the starlight tights these big rounded pillars we're not used to it normally we mainly use our fingertips but here we have to use our legs are absent arms our whole body and the view from the top is magnificent. to see is more than a scenic backdrop deepwater soloing means free climbing over deep water which sir. as the safety. climbers fall they just take a refreshing dip. risto manus then open those numbers among the best climbers in

greece he's created several routes for deep water soloing in his home country. but the. deep water soloing is the purest form of rock climbing it's the most minimalistic if you don't have a rope you don't have anything besides your shoes in the magnesium people this type of climbing is simply more authentic. the water shoaling takes very little preparation it's more spontaneous thing climbing in the mountains. explains what to do. with an apple 1st you have to make sure the water is deep enough and there are no hidden reefs if you fall it's better to keep your hands close to your body you should keep your mouth closed so you don't bite your tongue and just before you hit the water it's a good idea to open your arms and legs so you don't dive down too deeply. about. many international guests come to live and usually they come to the island more than once. a bit of

a farmer's paradise so i think it's my 2nd time here in terms of the things i like about it if you look at just behind us there is this like beautiful deep water so they can come to it's a short kayak or a boat ride away it's very easy to get all the crimes there just like a playground of climbing to be like all these different grades on the last evening the victors are awarded this time it can be at the school from germany they're the team that covered the most troops. we knew about the climbing festival so we came in registered and thought now we'll give it all we've got we had nothing to lose and the main thing was to have fun and just taking part is everything. the greek island of. climbers paradise between heaven and earth. here in germany the tilba fest in munich is long over the be adventurous the brass

bands have gone home and the be a parents bought their other october fest celebrations elsewhere we've been showing you some of the serious october 1st world whites and you can always go to our youtube channel if you've missed them this time you travel all the way to bloom and now in brazil the city was founded by german sedulous and 850 so let's take a look at their version of october fest. the october fest procession implement every october the descendants of the city's german founders celebrate their heritage with a festival of the room. who knows october fest numbers among brazil's most popular and most exotic and with some 600000 patrons it's the 2nd largest in brazil after the famous carnival in rio de janeiro.

i'm here with him here both from sao paolo and he invited me along this is my 1st time here and it's a great festival everything's marvelous. with the festivals wonderful and the people of my spittle 7 i love it and i want to come back. 29 year old sales clerk looked as german grandparents today should be representing the old country as an october 1st princess she has no shortage of enthusiasm for. and very grateful it's an honor because as a little girl i turned to being october 1st royalty and here i am it's in just. crabapple everybody loves that and lots of people join in for the parade we love that too so it's a very emotional thing because it's

a dream come true. but then everyone heads to the fairgrounds called the germantown the revelers all join in both ethnic germans and tourists anyone who care and shows up and later hosen or dirndl us. up at the table but it's a german festival so we dressed as tradition dictates besides it pays off the guests who show up in costume don't have to pay admission as it is in traditional dress we feel more a part of the festival and it's just nice. it's fun everyone dresses up like this. the queen and her 2 princesses make their daily rounds they keep a tight schedule for the 3 weeks of the festival. maybe during the day we're at events and evenings were at the festival so people can take pictures and get acquainted with us we represent the festival and people

simply love the attention they get that it was still. warm. every evening they stroll around the festival pavilions opening events like the traditional drinking contest. many brazilians falsely believe meter drinking is a typically german custom the idea is to chug the contents of a one metre long glass tube the fastest. was arranged in some german october fest standards are danced to brazilian moves for instance the song of the airmen song in both german and portuguese. everyone can dance along with it. instead of wooden benches where revelers lock arms and sway to and fro. here the brazilian october fest they have a huge dance for. me. in germany we noticed

that people prefer to sit it's more dignified here we like to get loose we hop around and have a party. while the royal highnesses have to retire at midnight the party goes on to the wee hours of the morning unlike the original munich the gloom in october fest is not subject to a legal closing time. if you've had enough of partying and need some peace and quiet how about a walk in the woods to hound for mushrooms this activity is becoming more and more popular among city to us also here in berlin and spending time in the forest is the perfect balance to busy stressed for city life and mushroom picking is an added bonus as long as they have a typical. commercial photographer moritz schmidt enjoys the peace in a delicate nature of

a forest bursting with life in autumn he spends as much time as he can in the woods searching for mushrooms he feels it's the ideal way to relax. it's really great sometimes you'll just see a little cap sticking out and with 4 chinos if you're lucky you'll find an enormous mushroom hiding underneath down among the pine needles in mosques. the mushrooms go pretty deep down. so it's always a surprise what you discover. being in the forest can bring a lot of joy. decided to share his experience with others when he finds a mushroom he photographed and tries to capture its beauty his book into the woods is a visual journey through the forest into the realm of mushrooms. through cough as a photographer i'm not just interested in mushrooms for their taste but for their shape too but there are endless varieties you discover new kinds of every forest i

just can't get enough of the shapes and colors. schmidt has been working as the photographer and his bergman studios this 2009 but in fact he's rarely there most of his assignments taken abroad the high professional demands of international photo shoots create one thing in abundance stress you know there's been lots of time on the road i fly a lot and have a terrible c o 2 footprint i travel around the world and meet lots of people often large groups of people. playing everywhere all day i kind of have to play the clown for everyone i enjoy it all of course but as a counterbalance i need the nice and quiet of the forest. the ascetics of commercial photography also influenced the images in his book all the photos reflect his love for the forest and mushrooms it's a bit like moritz schmidt's personal guide to happiness. it's not only about mushrooms it's about an approach to life finding joy in the forest that's why the

book is called into the woods hunting mushrooms and finding happiness. often it's the young upwardly mobile urbanites who have discovered the advantages of mushroom foraging over partying whether a project director in marketing or a d.j. and label head many people are taking to the woods to hunt for mushrooms. my life as a d.j. means i spent. internationally always on the road this kind of tranquility is the exact opposite. it's a big adventure to roam through the woods learn about new mushrooms and then take them home to cook it's fun. in order to trade the urban jungle for the forest in mushroom hunting all that's needed is the pocket knife sturdy shoes and a basket and getting an early start is a good idea. if you go into the forest early you'll be rewarded with a great atmosphere it's often still foggy the birds are singing and of course being

the 1st one there is key to hunting mushrooms nothing's more frustrating than just finding mushroom cuttings or no mushrooms at all. a few rainy days in a little sunshine brings the mushrooms shooting out of the ground many are edible a few are highly poisonous maurits schmidt has a tip for beginners. as a general rule it's good to gather beliefs you can tell by looking underneath but they have little sponges poorest layer instead of gills gills would be little stripes almost none of the beliefs are poisonous mushrooms so it's hardly possible to mix them up these mushrooms are really full proof. a basket with delicious mushrooms just waiting to be prepared frying red pine princeps together will provide a wonderfully fresh and intensive taste experience that is satisfying way to. in the woods. you know.

and i next report a former stockbroker and successful businessman in the pharmaceutical industry gave it all up to take over his parents' winery in trance that was 30 years ago then. long ago lost interest in chemistry finances and. now he believes in the cosmic palace of. seeing the moon and the cosmos to make wine may sound like mumbo jumbo but the frenchman is now considered one of the pioneers of biodynamic wine. the war valley is called the garden of france it stretches across the center of the country and for centuries has been the site for the cultivation of some of france's best wines like the legendary white wines of the chateau de la caution one winery insiders call vinegar nikolaus only the wine pope his kool-aid is the hong counts

as one of the world's best white wines and nickel nationally as the father of biodynamic little culture. you pull a beauty. i see biodynamic agriculture as the solution it connects the location with the earth's natural cycle of life that's what's unique you might get smaller yields a higher cost but the result is an authentic flavor seem to share receive light. the grapes are harvested. as they have been for any time 189 autumn's now susteren monks planted the 1st grape vines here in 1130 only once the grapes have ripened perfectly and they have a slight yellow tinge are they harvested until then they're tended and given her for greater balance and harmony. for 5 weeks before the harvest i always give them a wash of honey from our beehives and rose hips for the wild roses quite extraordinary

. biodynamic compound to the. case that way down the grapes with far more flavor. and the time is for planting the dinner it's hectares and fertilizing and harvesting the grapes so influenced by the planets. only insists the phases of the moon have a decisive effect on the flow of juices in the plants as do the tidal ebb and flow of the lunar calendar is an essential factor in the biodynamic methods at the winery now run by nicolaus daughter. city. see. also the interaction of all the planets it's a ballet of the planets in relation to the constellations throughout the year. they

influence the growth of the vines the folks who. see themselves as nature's assistance they never use artificial fertilisers only the dung from their own livestock which are also part of the biodynamic concept they keep cattle especially for this purpose and strictly controls the. diet today they get apples from the wineries own the orchard. biodynamic growers regard the cow horns filled with dung as a kind of super premium fertilizer for the vines. that's not all sweet. but they're buried in left in the ground for 8 months. now is the right time for them we did them up again in spring said by then they count down in the horns is thoroughly composed and can be used as fertilizer for the soil felt it cut most really

strongly sort of. the great harvest is going into the final stretch twice a day nicolaus really personally serves the pickers a little picnic with coffee tea and home baked cakes. and once for fresh they take the hand pick grapes to the press. a good pressing takes about 3 hours. then the grape juice is poured into oaken barrels which go into the winery cellar for 6 months then the wine is ready to drink nothing is added. the annual production averages some 50000 bottles the unique pure white wine from the surely winery can even be enjoyed 20 years later. will soon be taking over completely from her father. justin says i was born here and you could say this wine flows in my veins. were part of

a whole i can't imagine ever doing anything else and only modest to a size this place has lots of history my brother and i want to continue this history so the lifestyle here can be preserved with the help of biodynamic bit of culture as far as possible. others may dismiss there's only one to raise matter or even scoff at them as. hokus pokus but they can't argue with success not only their showpiece one. but all their white wines get good reviews from consumers and consumers alike. family knows the truth is in the flavor. every year in arts and traditional cattle drives take place all over the alps when they kept a return from the pine pestis it's a huge event and people come from all over to take part in the celebration the cow

was even decorated for our series quickly cast as i decided to join one in south taro it's a province in italy but they speak german there and the coasts don't care the way. i have to kiss an ox and swing with full this a buncha. this is the largest of highest medal in the alps i'm here from castro called cells to roll out with a cattle drive. this day means the end of the summer for the cows and my challenge today is to bring them back to the. it's early morning high up in the meadow the 1st of nearly 40 belongs to the i couldn't ever bring them all down by myself the farmers have to help out. for the occasion. and before we have down to the valley everybody has to fuel up we'll be walking 23

kilometers today. and here we have a kind of beauty salon for the i have a couch they'll be decorated for the drive the farmer has a clear favorite. if he doesn't this is my sunshine she'll stay with us until she dies that's certain. no sunshine has taken part in 7 cattle drives running at some point enough is enough without an altitude of 2000 meters you can keep the cattle up here forever it's a wonder that they even stay up here that they don't start wandering down on their own right wandering down on their own. the winter cold sets an alley in the high mad i'm actually in trust with leading one bull i have to take care of louis the ox for the next few hours but he's stubborn as well as an ox. i turn on the chance to try to win over lewis everybody has its own personality but

in the end all of them can be handled. the herd gets on the way slowly singlemindedly and unstoppably lewis does whatever he was sick. well he's not far off we won't be stopping for any brakes till we reach the back that's a 5 hour march downhill at a brisk pace. farther down we pass a little hamlets like company which spectators lines of both locals and tourists the cattle drive is an important festival for the entire beach but those cold boats are pretty noisy. and then suddenly trouble one of the oxen has broken away and must be chased down the tourists must have spooked in one of the help a spot him high up the mountainside. one wrong move and he might fall to his death

but the farmer son knows how to calm him down even so the bull has to climb back down on his own he's quite eager to return to the herd. down among the traffic i'm worried that one of the cows might become. but they're fine they calmly navigate the roundabout no problem but a little property damage can hardly be avoided. here and the farmers and the herd greeted like celebrities hundreds lined the streets to witness at least part of the kettle drive and the father must get to where we walked. the last few metres to the farm. the cows know their home they'd be able to stay outside in the pasture next to the farmhouse for one more month meanwhile i check up on luis the ox work last time.

he's not lost. everything. even after a 5 hour down in the family to help us and. the family at least are still wound up . all of the work the farmers have throughout the whole year is really celebrated on this one day and the farmers can show how proud they are of their cows and that is a really nice thing. i may not be born to be a cowgirl but at least i held out to the end and the cows probably like the summer and the alps better but here they make it through the winter. and i can tell you i had some muscles 4 days after that cattle drive but it was a fall today check us out online for more exciting stories and this week's draw from me and the whole team here in berlin.
