1:30 am
happiness is for everyone schuman penis is a very different from primates we have many totally ridiculous romanticized view of nature and there. is climate change regular sex how do you notice improve books you get smarter for free books. least. i could hardly believe it after 2 months of travel restrictions i left berlin and drove up to the baltic sea coast. is such a joy to be back at the beach and taking in the fresh sea air.
1:31 am
i'm in the northern german state of. the city and the neighboring region are at the center of a tourism pilot project they're trying out ways to be cation safely even during the penned make that is under straight supervision of the authorities and medical experts a huge experiment and me and my negative cova test were part of it. and if you're going to take part in a tourism trial this is definitely the place to do it. we'll also revisit a few highlights from previous check in trip to germany's north. coast. and world check out the scene on the southern coast of italy and this week's v mail . i was
1:32 am
lucky to get a room here and a country since the pilot project kicked off a few weeks ago people have been pouring into the region overnight guests must abide by strict rules upon arrival each person has to show proof of a negative test result. then 48 hours and hotels are blind to enforce the rules. any hotel room so long since i've had the pleasure i almost forgot what it feels like. throw in some sun. happy tourists and an unbeatable view of the harbor what can i say. this hotel is run by oliver he's been looking forward to rolling out the red carpet for guests again. what does it mean for you to be part of this model project.
1:33 am
naturally we're glad to be part of it but it's also important for the hotel industry as a whole it will allow us to get a sense of what is possible in the preseason and high season and also give guests an idea of what to expect and find out what the rules are which is true for us as well so the project is important for the entire sector. but how did you adjust to the special circumstances that. we'd already developed a pretty good concept of last year which we put back in place we made use of every option available to us. why would people who fall employees are required to get tested twice a week and we're also required to keep one or 2 rooms available in the event that someone must go into quarantine. any guest wishing to dine indoors must have a negative test we've also set up a test center right on our premises to make things easier we also used to look at it and it works well so far so we're really doing everything we possibly can so it's out of market. and thought of people all over germany can't wait to go on
1:34 am
vacation you run a hotel in the only region where that's currently possible are reservations off the charts yes it's been busy. but that's not surprising since we're the only city in germany allowed to offer in and outdoor dining reservations have been coming in from all over we've never experienced anything like it and of course we're sorry that we can't accommodate everyone as much as we'd like to we simply don't have the capacity constraints. at 1st glance there's little to suggest there's a pandemic going on. loads of tourists strolling around as if they haven't got a care in the world but this is something truly out of the ordinary 2nd 3rd and the neighboring sly region are among a limited number of areas included in the model project and all of them are in germany's north along the north sea and the baltic coasts. stefan
1:35 am
bachmann is the managing director of eck unfettered tourism and marketing he hopes his project will serve as a model for safe travel in all of germany. you have desk when you wrote the concept for the project did you focus on any particular aspects while developing it their children we felt it was important to give the tourism sector a perspective in other words we wanted to show that hotels and other holiday accommodations regardless of size as well as restaurants have. had code compliant concepts in place since last year and that we're capable of conducting responsible tourism that of course includes a comprehensive testing strategy not only for guests but for locals too that's why it's in the project a center run for 4 weeks what happens after they are mine. well of course i'd like to see the tourism sector open up all across because time. i hope that our pilot regions will successfully demonstrate ways in which we can continue operating by
1:36 am
deploying a testing strategy and that our methods are effective. then they can also be applied in accommodations and restaurants throughout sleighs because. the droid does the flu around matters of the project work a little differently here than in the sly region what are the main differences and what unique challenges do they pose another house for yourself about the. each of the projects varies slightly which is why the testing scheme in the light is a little different than ours our guests are required to do a coded rapid test at home and then another test here on the 3rd day of their stay and that's it in the sly region visitors have to take a test every other day it's somewhat complicated and there are variations but it has to be that way because plays big and wants to find out which method works best then we can take all the elements that proved most effective and applied those
1:37 am
methods throughout place because time. testing in econd thought it can be done and over and doesn't centers free of charge. and since i am bound do for one myself i'm getting tested right next to the beach. hundreds of people are tested here every day around 50 an hour which is almost one minute the results come in after some 15 minutes of good. so many rules to follow how do you feel about them. isn't even simply part of the deal and we travel a lot usually abroad but since that's not possible at the moment we're happy to be here at the baltic sea just getting away for a few days is the main thing and i don't mind all the testing oh i know that's not pleasant but you don't have to take one every day was isn't this opportunity and the testing is part of it that's ok but i've got to know what. i think the rules
1:38 am
are sensible definitely even requiring people to get tested every 48 hours if they want to dine in restaurants i mean can you have a good day we're going to the beach and maybe we'll stroll along the pedestrian mall get some ice cream and have a look inside a shop or 2 we have a camper van and this was the 1st site we could find with a vacancy as it's wonderful a real holiday it's fantastic. stephon arch heads the city's covert response center . and that's what is the aim of this pilot project for those people in business and susie in all the main goal is to see whether tourism has a significant impact on infection rates in the district or region so. that's why we've been implemented these pilot projects. to test whether tourism is possible and safe under certain conditions. you know how risky is it. they have. these and i'm thinking well with antigen rapid tests we always have
1:39 am
a certain margin of error we can't completely rule out. just this concept but the testing concept has been conceived to compensate for this uncertainty by way of increased frequency. and the wolf we test result of that if the project proves successful how likely is it that other regions inside germany or elsewhere will implement some. miller ones. that some kind. of i'm absolutely convinced that this system could be set up in any other region of germany or europe and while we do enjoy certain advantages in terms of wind weather and climate i still think this concept would work well in other regions too. since my latest test was also negative i can stay
1:40 am
a while so i'm going to treat myself to some time at the beach. the coastal regions of the north sea and the baltic sea are some of germany's most popular tourist destinations my colleague locos and i have actually been here several times for you guys already so let's take a look back. at the north sea island of hell ego land lines about 50 kilometers off the german coast and it's home to some $1300.00 residents. when my colleague to go went for a visit here arrived on the island after a pleasant 3 hour ferry ride. many visitors come here to hike along the bright red sandstone clubs in the north of the island. most are on their way
1:41 am
to the long haul and a 47 metre high freestanding sandstone column these rocky cliffs serve as a breeding ground for thousands of birds. but there are plenty of day trippers who come to hell legal land to shop things to the islands tax exempt status many people make the journey to purchase things like tobacco and alcoholic beverages. another popular summer holiday destination is always adopt an island in the baltic sea part of it belongs to germany and part of it to poland. vacationers flock to the dom's beaches and it tends to be completely booked up months in advance during peak season. and those
1:42 am
seeking a bit more peace and quiet might want to venture into the island's interior and go on a horseback riding track. bonum india is a seaside resort town also on the baltic sea close to the port city of us stuck. in. the city's famous lighthouse was built over 120 years ago and it still works. some 5 kilometers long and spanning up to 100 meters and breath the beach here is the widest in the state of mechlin vote for obama. because. the wotton sea along the north sea
1:43 am
is a world heritage site visitors are encouraged to take a guided tour across the much less. i was fascinated by the rich diversity of marine life when i especially like the lug or sand worms. twice a day the month flats are completely submerged by the tide but over time the people here came up with a few inventive ways to get from place to place without getting wet. and whether you choose the baltic or north sea no trip to the coast is complete without a fish or shrimp sandwich. and then it's time for
1:44 am
a little action. on the beats. if you ask me the best thing about this experiment is that allows indoor dining that has been banned in germany since november of 2020 so here i am extra happy to show my test result. dannielle am on has been running this restaurant for the past 7 years and specialty fish of course . what should i have to do what's right suggest you try our salmon burger with the potato fritter smoked salmon and. it's very popular we made it once just for fun but now it's
1:45 am
a real hit from just to something. else bad no joke one is about to land on my plate i'll take it isn't it isn't like a trip back in time when you come in and see the place full of happy diners yes the 1st few days we didn't really notice how much things had picked up but now it's nonstop all day long it's always packed for the i think that's it how has this pilot affected your day to day business and your customers are they keen to come in or are they a little hesitant. did you notice that people are hungry to go out for their friendlier more patient. don't complain there's no moaning and groaning what's there really polite phone go on through. you know if i just had some cutlery. i meet the privacy with this guy so why don't you take a hike a real one among chill is will cain at least in this week's new local will catch up
1:46 am
with ruben pryor live even and then search for a guy but these days he doesn't have all that much to do because in the south american country and i mean has also badly damaged the tourism sector. well you know my name is ruben paella i'm an adventure tourism guide and i live in the beautiful city of behind me you can see a famous landmark the view of ok no the most active volcano in my city is considered the capital of adventure tourism in chile come on me i'll show you around. the. lake and great mountain landscapes on its surroundings have to offer there are a lot of things to do here you know that. if you've ever been visit you must go to
1:47 am

1:48 am
have been hit hard by the current corona situation and know how to drop in the tourism sector since march last year we had great hopes that the situation did improve this summer unfortunately has not and we now have to go into complete quarantine for the time being what is it about that. as a native of this region i recommend you climb the via reka volcano this is because there are a few volcanoes in the world where you can see a lake of lava and climbing view is quite easy so i invite you all to come here and climb the very. time to explore this life it's an inlet of the baltic sea that stretches 42 kilometers into the mainland this region is also included in the tourism project.
1:49 am
it's famous for its nature and sustainable tourism. with its 25000 inhabitants is the largest city in the region and the early middle ages it was an important trading hub for the vikings. one place you should be sure to visit is the small fishing village of hope. the tourism sector is excited to be a part of the model projects on the lot how's it going so far in mice with most of the businesses appreciate the initiative we've taken with this pilot project and are happy to get on board and there's tremendous demand among the guests as well the region. can accommodate about 19000 visitors at once and were almost completely booked up in may and also while he did in the feedback what kind of feedback have
1:50 am
you gotten from guests hotels or holiday apartment owners for instance. you know by all from the feedback from tourists and those renting out holiday units has been very positive from the hotels were somewhat reluctant and initially and clearly would have liked to open up more for dining and that continues to be an issue for hotels and restaurants youngness about we're keeping that in mind and it's the next logical step so if we manage to stabilize the incidence rate and 2nd fetta and restaurants don't pose a risk that'll be the next step will be about feeling sorry such that. if you ever make it around this part of the world make sure to check out the smaller towns as well this one for example are in s. with its only $250.00 inhabitants is the smallest city in germany.
1:51 am
was. in the meantime i've made my way to capital to go for a cruise around the shrine after months tied to the docks boats are finally back in action. but what conditions are you required to fulfill in order to be part of this tourism project these are signs of. the 1st 2 everyone must wear. mask and passengers have to present proof of a negative test taken within the past 24 hours before they are permitted to board while moving about on the boat they have to keep their masks on but they can take
1:52 am
them off while seated. what's your take on the project in general is from the so i think it's great that we've been given this opportunity you've got to start somewhere and i think we're the only one germany that's permitted to do this it's great really wonderful. times where our v mail a look at the world through our viewers' eyes this time the killer takes us to the southern coast of italy. good morning out there.
1:53 am
let's talk to some campers and find out what it's like for them to be part of such a large scale experiment. the entire german coastline including the law is popular with campers but during the pandemic even those traveling with their own mobile home had no where to go where you would all worried about coming here no not at all as i'm not a bit you know because when you're camping you're out in the fresh air a lot and tend not to spend much time around other people so there's no reason for concern. this campsite is fully books but fewer spots are available at the moment due to covert 19 restrictions. is everyone sticking to the rules you're in charge
1:54 am
of enforcing them but are the campers doing their part. so far we've had nothing but positive experiences. i'm pleasantly surprised by how smooth things are going. people are very respectful of others everyone stays within their own area even in the washrooms they're careful only 5 people are allowed to be in the building at one time masks are being worn tests are being taken after 3 days as required by i see that people register immediately after returning to the premises. it's all going great we couldn't be happier now about. the tourism project has raised hopes for having what used to be a typical summer season a shortage of guests will definitely not be a problem. when i check into my hotel and i have a quick chat with the owner. due to the pandemic this past year was
1:55 am
a tough one for the hotel industry how do you envision the upcoming season and the future in general do you have any concerns. and when i look beyond the immediate future i imagine the urge to travel further afield will be great and i don't know what that will lead us here in the region which in the meantime we have an opportunity to show you. that makes this area so charming. i really enjoyed my time here even with all the testing and the restriction still in place it did feel like a bit of normality and i really hope the pilot is successful and that other regions consumers start welcoming visitors as well so fingers crossed see you next time.
