hit empty beaches empty restaurants empty airports no planes are bringing in holiday visitors even world famous landmarks are now deserted hundreds of thousands of people have lost their jobs and there are no signs of things getting back to normal. the situation is a particularly grim for spain one in 10 people is employed in the country's tourism industry victor often known as one of them he runs a hospital in more than a lawn in northern spain and usually you will come a lot of hikers at this time of the year but right now everything has come to a standstill the global pandemic has destroyed hopes and dreams and has forests of many to face an uncertain future. it's really disquiet here in our streets and spain's atlantic coast to roost in

size not even in the way of some chance bustling thousands of pilgrims making their way to santiago. it's a tough blow for victor fernando who moved here from valencia 2 years ago ferrando an electrician wanted to make a dream of his country and so he bought this house and turned it into a hole still for pilgrims following the waves and james now all the pants are empty . and i think i will be civil but this will really set me back i'm losing a lot of income that i've already budgeted for. after all my cost still stay the same and. i still have to pay for electricity water and insurance even if my door stay closed. 36 year old fernando knows he's not the only one with these problems it's not just the pilgrims that are staying home to resume in general it's grinding to a halt. as

a bit we've already missed one of the most important months of the year in this summer will be the same. as a resume is so important for spending but this year tourism is dead to. spain cities should be bustling with life this time of year now they look more like ghost towns normally tourists from all over europe would be celebrating this spring holiday in spain sunny beaches and spanish cuisine and sangria and spring isn't even the peak season. one who is fernandez feel is the worst is yet to come if tourists from germany britain and france stay away this year they might not be any summer holiday business at all. national organization with one that will probably not only do we not know when we can reopen our restaurants again we also don't know how we would do so do we need to reduce the amount of tables to ensure enough distance between guests we've hardly got any room

to begin with. this is going to cost us more jobs than your body was going to put up or what if any are. 2 reason is pretty dry in focus for spain's economy this is what it looked like a year more than 18000000 tourists just one in 10 jobs a part of the hospitality industry after years of record breaking numbers of tourists florentino felger also economist at the university of all video now believes spain is facing a serious crisis. if it was because by next year the virus hit spain especially hard. that's damaged the country's image so tourists might be wary of coming to visit the governor's conference. prime and we can only hope to get it under control soon so that people will want to come visit spain again in the long run as my. best to resume has gone back significantly juta the compound pandemic even the way

of some chains which in past years was like a pew guzmán therof it is empty today not one of the thea for me association of friends of the camino to santiago sees an opportunity in the crisis he wants to renew the way of some jams and tended to root for sustainable tourism. in the moment when we can use this opportunity now about what kind of way of st james we want. you know we want to maintain the original pilgrimage route or let it become what some are taken to calling it an amusement park. for now most innkeepers are simply struggling to survive costello no victim relies on the pilgrims that come from over the world he actually wanted to expand his business and i just bought a 2nd house he was planning to turn into a hostile. i wanted to use my savings to renovate.

as i stated i'm using you just to make ends meet with another form. i recently took out a loan. now only to pay it back for the bills. i can forget about renovation works anytime soon what i'm the course says but i believe that the. answer for ground 0 has had to put his dreams back in the shit he's even considering leaving back to presence here to resume a tradition he doesn't see much teaching in tombs. while all the people in spain are hoping for a visit from abroad romanians are trying to keep them at bay some fear that their fellow citizens with seasonal jobs in other e.u. countries could import the new coronavirus some politicians are taking strict measures to prevent people from gathering in public spaces all in efforts to contain the spread of the virus but this move is making life for villagers and

farmers like all gulf war cash very heart like many others the romanian village of arcata has been on lockdown since mid march its residents are only allowed out of their houses with official permission small farmer olga for akash has received official permission but she still can't sell her produce. i have to think of this that it was my autumn harvest each eamonn spring i would make good money from that i thought that this us infesting a lawsuit all these heads of cabbage and it was so lovely think mark up with the whole thing for. 4 costs usually sells for cabbage in the little town of me or korea neeraj really where many residents belong to remain as hungry and minority but the farmer's market has been shuttered since mid march for fear of the coronavirus in spite of remaining government pleas to keep the markets open.

they wanted to ensure the availability of affordable produce as well as an income for small farmers but mer chandeleur tot have the market closed down anyway with migrant workers returning from western europe unable to find work in the crisis may or top was worried they could bring back the virus and spread it. everyone's the people from our region we got through this farmer's market because this virus spreads easily through crowds so we closed it immediately without any specific directive from the government that they should look to goes up it will be awful to be on the talking if we hadn't i'm sure the people returning from abroad would have thrown around their money and partied with their friends there but we wanted to shut them down which i just look at only. about one 5th of the $1000.00 knowing romanians including many roma work in other e.u. countries so far about $1000000.00 of them have returned home with no work

subjecting an already weak economy to additional strain. several 100 migrant workers have returned to me or korea neeraj. the mayor wants to show that he's taking action and demonstrate that he's got everything under control. get in there we already ordered a ventilator in the 16th of march so dots in an emergency nobody would have to go to the city they could receive treatment right here in town. and we bought a disinfection gates which the nursing home and health care employees at the local hospital have to pass through the book. the coronavirus has completely derailed before crushes life she's only allowed to sell or produce in a complex of tenement blocks but business is slow to say the least i met him many of them better. catalunya people had a lot out of their houses and you know i'm just wasting my time here and it's tough for everyone at the moment and he

a few people in the surrounding apartment block spy things anyone even further away doesn't even know why i'm here and to get what you like diprivan is but this little square plot to sum up products but the real market is closed. only thinking he's a larger quantities. and they have a much more i don't know what to do. so. why do you think we've got no money will starve even so we need to keep working at work where most of the factories are closed on the fields there the wind blows the virus away. so far the region has lost 40 inhabitants to the coronavirus but the hospital in me a korean year roger lee has not seen one corona patient so far dr cardio shanteau supports the mayor's measures. be on its own and he made the right decision. a mass gathering like the weekly market would have spread the virus very quickly.

this way the possibility of infection has been minimized i think people have understood and accepted that to get off with me. after weathering 2 months of the run a lockdown measures in our hometown olga is reaching the end of her rope today's earnings are barely enough for a few bottles of water and she's not alone most people in the region are farmers they all face the same problems now. up until now all grown her family were able to get by with their vegetables and chickens. the family has no other source of income. although hope she might be able to sell her freshly planted a plants at the market the summer tour with

ash that the men completely open reacted while the market's allowed to open everywhere else but not here i need to be able to send levitch to. groceries are essential people need to eat when all the only ones with people are turning home from a friend of them check. compared to other european states romania has reported quite a few corona related deaths. but many here are struggling with the economic backlash of the pandemic 75 years ago the 2nd world war came to an end and this marked the end of years of tera and persecution for millions of jews somewhere only able to escape death at a concentration camp because none jewish neighbors or friends sheltered them. survived the holocaust by hiding at the home of one family in berlin after the war

she turned her back on germany and moved to paris but to this day her family and that of her rescuers remain friends. honeybees for life a practicing jew she was a trooper then or part. she passed away in 2019 age 95 it was close to a miracle the honey survived the nazi period as a young girl she had underground in the german capital berlin she was supported by a network of non jewish friends today her son rene recalls her tales after surviving the war she raised them in paris. got on a boat one day the cars stop will not at our door itself my mother didn't open through us she ran for her life. you know she went through the neighbors flat and even bumped into one of the gestapo men sent to arrest her as she fled downstairs.

outside some non jewish friends came to her aid this is the north reef. years later honey levy published in october i are honoring the unsung heroes who protected her. in one chapter she recounts the day she fled her home. just 1000 years old with nothing but the clothes on her back. in my now no desperate mind i turned to one of my new acquaintances. i had met her at a small cinema where she worked and had visited her several times before. of course mrs calderwood shocked when i told her about my situation she told her husband and was quick to promise she would protect me i felt sure she would never turn me in father. honey spent the next 18 months of her life hiding here in this

courtyard and burning shona back. she had a fake id and dyed her hair blond to appear arion. the cultures were hardly levy's main lifeline but they weren't the only ones to help. them there or see it had been several other families also took her in. some found hiding places for her others brought her groceries. on. a memorial plaque outside the culture home burn the national bird now honors the couple for their deeds and he was happy to return the berlin when it was unveiled several years ago. yes i'm struggling to find the right words. above all i want to thank this incredible household community down. there weren't many of these silent helpers among the mass of nazi followers but

they proved that resistance was in fact possible more than 6000 jews had underground in berlin. only one in 4 survived. berlin's german resistance memorial center has dedicated an entire exhibition floor to those who were prosecuted and those who helped them. it shines a light on ordinary people not the well known resistance fighters individuals who risk their lives to save their friends and neighbors historians have documented hundreds of stories like that of honey levy. and the most important message for me. which we can give to young people in future is to show that people have a trice that they can decide on which side they want to act and they have this joy is also under dictatorship. they

headed also under nazi rule but the truth they had to decide what they want to do and what they want to be people have a choice after the war even moved to paris her son rene tells us that although the nazis murdered several of his family members if you has no hatred towards germans that he says is the next to his mother she and the culture family remain close through the years. my math course you are supposed cause when i was just 6 months old my mother took me to berlin to introduce me to the cultures who all the plays are. in a way through this culture was like a mother to her needs met them kids over the course she even called her beauty or move and the play that you know. my mom would deep call for you when you son when they got married to 1975 all the cults or family members who were still alive who

came to a wedding some of the new in the money or. nay says the actions of the cults or family make clear that amid the unspeakable nazi horror and bloodshed at the time some in germany managed to keep their compassion and humanity. many of us have collective stuff in our base mans and our addicts that we know we will no longer use of but don't want to throw away just yet a company in sweden had a great idea of how to give such items a 2nd life they opened of the world's 1st recycling shopping center and a vast not all across wheaton people can visit special auctions to buy or sell stuff these auctions have a long tradition and a short to make a comeback after the corona crisis is over. in the community hall of the village of tuna northeast of groups of one of sweden's most cherished traditions comes to life

old news knick knacks are sold at an auction about the village in sweden nobody likes wasting anything but is still in perfectly good shape. of it and at the level auctioneer christiane has plenty of odd wares on offer and all of them are useful somehow he sees to that himself. whenever a household is dissolved christiane buys up the items that would otherwise have gone into the trash and fixes them up to sell the field so here you can buy things fairly cheaply the good things that last but also the living room suite back there for instance. it cost about $80.00 euros and. that with the people who need to swedes objects with a story to tell are like treasures there's hardly anything that someone else would like to give a new home. what anybody would want with an old delight a surveyor's instrument only the buyer knows it's as much in demand as a box full of toys. is one of the betters today is her lucky day it.

sold a box full of old dolls for about 20 or. 20. if you're reading. i simply had to have it so i just kept on bidding. the auction is a fun way to hunt for useful trinkets for small prices have a little bit can go a long way the guiding principle reduce reuse recycle more and more people in sweden are coming round to the bitters way of thinking sustainability is becoming a way of life and a smashing new business model. a few years ago one of the world's 1st recycling malls opened in as close to enough to forge jam packed with furniture clothes books and most anything else imaginable and it's all 2nd hand donated by its previous owner. i'm john. is in charge of electronics.

everyone who comes here they have no objective they come here to save the environment and help others to make some money like the rich want to hear to throw detail it won't work with all this would all be just on the old like responsibility . these old t.v. sets computers and telephones are headed not for the junkie but the repair shop and they come out almost as good as new it's a win win operation with the environment as the biggest winner. the recycling department store pays off financially as well all the participating retailers together say they had over 1000000 euros in revenues and 29000. and customer figures are on the rise too. there's something for almost everyone. both of us for the sound money i love to. look at this is an old record player a book called whiskey. and after the shops closing the recycling department store

events in courses began. workshops teach how to refurbish old things and make paper are objects from old books or jewelry from bottle caps. we're definitely a part in challenging the. concept of what is. also challenging the concept of that even if we do our part even if we're apart in a consumer culture or. what we consume also makes a huge difference and what impact it has on the environment. in the meantime the auction in tuna is winding down. puts one of the final lots on the block. with food. and service like this is almost certain to find a buyer. who. while the buyers rush home with their treasures the auctioneer tallies up the sales of the day. the

auction today turned a handsome profit who is not going to sweden we'd like secondhand things to say to us there's something very special to be in this value of all european countries but i'm sure here is where this movement a strong just. but maybe the sweet spot for 2nd hand to spread to the rest of europe as well after all just because something is old doesn't mean it's not still handy and sustainable shopping is becoming an ever stronger imperative not just in the far north. the kobe had 19 outbreak has a forest many people into isolation while some are fighting boredom at home others like to cut that in the group nyad. are discovering their creative side she and thousands of other russians have taken to facebook to show off their self created versions of popular works of art and to create some will be artists use the toilet paper food and even pets. fly
