another fun filled edition of your own max here's a look at what else we've got coming up. the comic book asterix has been delighting fans worldwide for 60 years now there's a new volume. and out before easter a festival on the danish island of everything revolves around this delicacy. he's one of the most beloved comic figures in the world even at the age of 60 i am talking about the gaulish warrior asterix a french national hero well this year marks an important anniversary and there is certainly lots to celebrate since $959.00 asterix has been translated into more than $100.00 languages and has also made it to the silver screen no less than 14 times now fans all over the world are gearing up for a new set of adventures. asterix is celebrating his 60th birthday

with a brand new adventure the fans can hardly wait. to creators are once again. and contrast it's their 4th book they're the successors of the asterix originators. and. the whole asterix is not a typical hero he's no superman but more a caricature when you look at him you can't really take him seriously he's actually has to off. the little guy all uses his brains and bravery against the romans brawn he wins every time asterix is a modern version of david and goliath with humor his fame has spread far beyond france over 380000000 copies have been sold worldwide the last edition sold 5000000 in 2 years alone. for the debate to find 2 new authors who could

put up with each other and for us to really wasn't easy at 1st it. we were lucky all 3 editions have been a success. happen working together since 2030 but. daughter and i. still have the last word. first they send me a summary. and then the new chapters one by one if i get the feeling that the ideas are moving too far away from the original concept i let them know that on the other hand they have to have a certain freedom. either way original idea is very present you know. the current edition asterix and the chieftains daughter speaks to a new generation the stories built around the female character named in the lead we were forced to move the asterix comic already has many male characters so it's

a lot easier for us to develop female characters who suffer or. if we live in a time when women act differently and the perception of women has changed it i wouldn't say that we've gone feminist with asterix but that that just wouldn't work and that the. pastor rick sent his pal have to deal with a rebellious teenager it's a smart move considering how popular asterix is with young people even read in french classes this one is peppered with references everyone will get a blacksmith's son for instance is called self thinks. without these new characters it would hardly be possible to breathe fresh life into the existing concept of it's movie for. the reader should never feel were making a copy then all would be lost the concept has to recall the original but within this framework everything has to be new and different. france is going all out to

celebrate this 60th birthday with surprise events in the paris metro and a special edition of asterix stamps. people know asterix on like this character they automatically connect the comic books with something positive and familiar. with him by the. in a book i overheard a mother tell her son you're not getting anything he disappeared and came back with an asterisk on it his mother said oh well all right you can't say no to a national treasure but he was. there cracking writer illustrator team seem to have no shortage of ideas they've already worked out which way the next adventure is to go or we both feel we have to be more and more imaginative just to go in the next edition i want asterix to take an ironic look at himself. to be able to really

laugh at himself but to do that he's got to be the center of the story. but 1st they'll have to see how asterix fans receive the latest volume. next up we are headed to amsterdam now if you're looking for a hotel that is literally off the beaten path then how about a bridge keepers cabin now these are little houses that were once used to monitor traffic on the canals now since bad job is automated these days some of the cabins are now available for a unique overnight experience we traveled to amsterdam to test one out. bridge keepers cabins they're as much a part of amsterdam as road bikes and they come in every shape and size. the bridge keepers one site in raising and lowering the drawbridge is for ships then came centralised computer control and control stations were left empty. but now some

have been open to overnight guests an hour opens the door we call nieve your daughter ski and all of a chitin books through the suites hotel website 15 former bridge keepers cabins offer waterfront accommodation with an historical flat. it's done very cleverly on 3 floors with 12 square metres each a fabulous solution. and the view you can look down on the city from all sides it's fun and very comfy and. the 3 floors have space for a bed a bathroom and a dining alcove. the bridge keepers worked here until 2009 raising the new i am still book the occupation existed in amsterdam for over a century. the cabins were built in various styles. from the

amsterdam school. to structuralism now they're protected as historical sites the arm style salutes laos built in $1673.00 can only be reached by boat rather than raise and lower bridges it collected fees from passing ships. suzanna oxen are is a co-founder and creative director of suites hotel 28 of the cabins will have been converted by 2021. we call in to let's say buildings that were used for another profession we have to change them so we go in and we look at what is the pope potential. power of this house how can we add something to it how can we transform it into a place to stay. this cabin offers a kitchen and a bedroom with a panoramic view of the canal. the interior designers chosen to accentuate this

17th century architecture. we try to tell the story of this house by by using the callers from their right periods by opening up the attic to show what it actually was like but also to put in song things like this can that was used to drink beer and wine in the 17th century to show our guests like we're actually you know what was this period like how were people eating how were they drinking builtin 956 in the new objectivity style the lodgings of the horton spoke our a bit more modern clear lines and colors continue inside. among the furnishings is an original chair by the powerhouse pioneer at. the beach keeper's cabins are just one example of how all kinds of buildings in

amsterdam have been converted to hotels another is there for all the crane hotel in the north of the city guests can book one of 3 suites in a former harbor crane from 35 to 25 meters up in the air at the top guests can soak in a jacuzzi while enjoying the view of bastard am. and groups of up to 12 guests can board for all your honner overnight in good weather the crew on fell over sails and put out to sea. to dam offers any number of ways to live on or near the water. for nicole mv i don't ski and all of a crighton. it was a novelty to spend the night in the tiny bridge keeper's cabin. toilet. it's a great idea but you have to be prepared to play live tetris here and there because the space is very limited but for

a couple of days and nights it's lovely. maybe small but the bridge keepers cabins offer a unique way to experience amsterdam. with $360.00 degree fuz. point adorable accommodation all right staying on the water the oyster has a reputation of being an expensive delicacy usually enjoyed with a glass of champagne but along denmark's north sea coast when the tides are low there is a nice to be had for free on the beach the season is short so or is for lovers have to act quickly and they did so with a 3 day festival on the danish island over. it's oyster season all across northern europe including denmark chefs for maize and

oyster fans from the world over gather for rumor island oyster festival. it's a celebration of the mollusc delicacy. not a fresh new had. the song 3 the ironic it's really him all the minerals just explodes in your mouth and off the oyster i mean it was like if i had one meal before i die i would be you know it doesn't you know european flash wasters i think it's it's like a kiss from say they are so close to nature it's so which and in a way. the rumor lies in the wind and sea and area of mud flats in the north sea laid bare at ebb tide revealing plenty of oysters for everyone to pick while the

delicacy fetches high prices all over the world on oyster safaris they're free for the gathering. i think it's a fascination of being in the middle of nature and eating something that is. so fresh i mean fresher than anything else and you eat them from the beach but this is lovely i love it it's my 1st time. frances saltwater and then i think it's like. oily fish they're fresh you have. of course the chefs at the oyster festival collect their own from the mud flats as well like francisco of france so here. we have a source that's coming from the run just place. just put the knife. between the 2. and just play with a knife to cut it. so it's free to

it. it's a very good idea to chew the stars because. so you get all the test out of it. the food retailer victor describes fresh oysters as the ultimate taste experience depending on where they come from oysters differ not only in appearance but in taste ranging from salty to subtle sweet and miles. you have committed. you have with with one day one of the one marks the oysters are getting. fed from the wall. in the sea so that's where they get the food that's where they. were going to find later. the taste.

met up with him to find out why this little toy is his material of choice. hello my name is on the grid my portrait of the news of russia and the youth of the city. giovani can tardies puts over 700 cubes and as much as 2 hours into each of his portraits why he doesn't put in them his clue either the frame holds the cubes in place or the image. falls to pieces as soon as it's completed he's got nearly 350000 followers on instagram he generally makes portraits of famous figures some of the star share the images on social media when him even more followers. share his fascination with the cubes. when people look at your solving a cube in 10 seconds they think of you as an alien someone from another planet. with the artwork but it's something more fascinating. giovani can target you

started out by setting records he set an impressive 60 italian records 9 european ones and 3 world records the rubik's cube in less than 10 seconds even under water . we asked him to create a picture for your own max he chose a woman whose face everyone knows mona lisa by leonardo da vinci. the challenge here is not to solve the rubik's cube as fast as he can but to resolve the image into pixels on the computer. how he does it is his secret. he only reveals enough to give you an idea. one of the. things that i do is actually work with the picture when he's still in black and white the reason is that i know. from white to black.

would look like one of the colors of the q i like to work on the design when it's did on these 4. because i can keep it a little bit more close to the original into the. hardly anyone notices that one particular color is always missing. i actually don't use the green because it doesn't look good to get it without a coat it's only 5 colors to create an image and so the hardest part for me is create that design which can take. 10 days depending on how difficult it is giovani can target lives in the town where he was born adriatic. he's able to live from his art he's even under contract with the new york city gallery that sells his works to collectors around the world for 5 figure sums. but he sees no need to leave. he's done

a portrait of the town's most famous son opera composer. good publicity for the opera himself and the town. is very important for me. outside of here for 4 years. during that experience i love. how i like my road. friends. my family of course. and anywhere from here. back to the mona lisa once again he uses over 700 rubik's cubes you construct the portrait line by line taking short breaks now and then that's important because it's easy to make a mistake but extremely difficult to fix it later on. close to the portrait it doesn't allow you to see everything that is going. i need

to make sure there are no mistakes because it's impossible to change. from the very 1st cue it took chobani can tarty only about 90 minutes to complete our mona lisa. of course the very last book is always satisfying. i love it i think it's great for. the 500 year old painting as a 5 color mosaic and the riddle of the rubik's cube portrait is concealed with a mysterious smile. extreme athletes are all about pushing their limits and german mountain climber. does just that she discovered her passion for mountaineering on a trip to south america just a few years ago and after that the sky was the limit since then she's completed 12 expeditions in just 4 years and she was the youngest german woman to climb mount

everest we hear from her now about what it takes to go to such extremes. to top the moment you're totally focused on the moment you live in the here and now you're in venice and eating landscapes. when on your trains in zurich she attracts attention the tires are meant to simulate heavy sleds in snow it's the optimum training for hiring stream sport and when with an oath i'm not a total sporting ace but i do have a solid basic fitness said that's what's important for expeditions being able to keep up a certain performance over a long time she didn't start mountaineering tell him she was 25 but in 3 he is had scaled the 7 summits the highest peaks on every continent and she's the youngest german woman to climb mount everest but she also got to know the sports

dangers they said on. but i live my personally saw somebody die on everest and it makes you wonder what do i live for and how much risk am i willing to take from to me it's worth the risk that i might die that's a stab. in the summer of $29.00 team she ascended the world's 2nd highest peak k 2 without an officer in moscow. good luck and i would i like to discover and experience something new and go a little further than i did the last time to see what else i can experience now on your block is getting ready for her next experience 60 days in the frozen antarctic wasteland on her own. it's bad to find that quest i'm going to cross from the coast of antarctica 1400 kilometers to the south pole the starting point is berkner island and the route leads across the ice on the continental plate through mountain

ranges and then across the polar plateau or till finally i arrive at the geographic south pole since. there are no supply dept i was there along the way so 29 year old i'm here palca will have to carry everything she needs. she's meticulously selected have provisions. that look around texas i think you know all together this weighs 66 kilos and i loaded onto the sled in daily rations lots of freeze dried fair lots of nuts i don't think i've got so many calories per 100 grams and a high fat content lots of sweets powdered better just to add more fat to everything and i have a lot of protein powder along as fats talks i'll be exerting myself every day and my muscles will have practically no time to recuperate if i thought that no woman has ever yet gone so far across antarctica on fort around. contact to the outside

world will be via 2 satellite telephones powered by solar panels she did a trial run earlier in the year in greenland. there are many things i'm into effect just bad that i fall into a crevasse for example that would be a fatal scenario. and i'm afraid some critical piece of equipment my prey could become unusable or one that i might have overestimated myself. with. one last practice session before she takes off to the antarctic. she feels well prepared for what is likely the most daring challenge. amazing and with that it is time to say goodbye dover to check out our website for this week's draw and chance at winning an exclusive euro max watch as always thanks
