is this something that you want to share with someone you could copy all head out of the picture. so there's no way of people knowing you. in case of the incident, you are in the 77 percent. well, in 60 minutes on absolutely a thought they were great able to be able to have you ever day dreamed of living in the medieval castle. we sent out to discover what it was really like back that some of us could use a bit more color in our lives and interiors, even show nika has some ideas for that. and in spain we find out where to enjoy traditional topics with beer or wine and sometimes free of charge. all this and

more coming upon your own. ah ah, germany is famous for its majestic palaces and castles, but is it like a medieval fairy tale to live in them a modern day lord gave us a tour to show us just how wonderful it could be despite the challenges. ah imagine waking up here, gazing out of the window from one of your many towers and surveying the surrounding forests in the morning sunshine. today i might book ed's castle to find out what it is really like. miss castle has been inhabited by the same family for over 800 years hers. so they seem like the best people to ask me the l family have managed

to keep the castle in their hands over the last 8 centuries through careful diplomacy and smart marriages. workouts was built in the prime of medieval castle construction between the 11th and 13 centuries, deliberately near the missouri river. historically, one of the most important trade routes in germany nowadays, whilst it's obviously beautiful, i think, living here could come with its challenges. i count yak, called fun, and to ed took over the castle, ownership from his father in 2018. he has another home in the area regularly spends time here at book where he grew up to this castle, certainly has a certain atmosphere of course. is that something that you still experience, especially once people have left in the evenings and it gets quiet and you're in nature, it has a very, very special atmosphere and, and there's also kind of

a sense of belonging here that way. for some reason i just feel totally at home. so the bed is a lot larger than it looks. it's about one me to a t wide and to me to 10 long. okay. and the reason for that is because the whole family would sleep and this would be the both the parents as well as the church and what it was in order to preserve the heat. that's why you have the captain's. and that's also wise built up because he wanted to catch the rising heat. that's why back then people usually climb into bed and today we usually fall into the scene painted across the bedroom walls is a playful one. it's still a phallic and fertility symbols. mm. mm. mm mm. one of the most

visually attractive things either to tapestry said i hanging here. no tapestry is evolved in the 14th century or even earlier because you would put cloth up in order to make the room woman more comfortable in. so this is one of about forty's higher places in the car, so with about 80 rooms that means every 2nd room had a high place which was an extraordinary luxury time i can imagine. and they will hand i in a cost i in facts which heated up and once they were hot, you could pick them up with certain tongues and bring them to next room, which didn't have a fireplace. and that would give off the heat in the castle like this probably requires quite

a lot of upkeep on the right. i would certainly it does. we are constantly renovating repairing. there's always something that needs to be done all the time. it takes a lot of energy and also a lot of finances, which is why we're so grateful for august because without them, none of this would be possible. i 1st is one of my favorite pieces as well because it's a big wooden chopping block. and we measured it and the chopping block fits neither through the wind and not through the door. so it must have been here when they finish this room. wow. so this is probably one of the oldest pieces and then the absolutely cancel ah, well there you have it life in a medieval castle. it has a certain flare, right? maybe it's not the fairy tale lifestyle that you might expect. and sure it would be

cold in the winter, but wouldn't it all be worth it? just to have this whole place and the whole surrounding area all to yourself? ah, let a little color interior life. that's what textile designer, eva sure. nike has in mind with her west african inspired interior decor. she brightens up drab, european living rooms, and makes the space the more cheerful place. making life more colorful is what london designer eva show. nike has set out to do, and she takes an approach all her own efficacy really at my court. everything that i am, it's reflected in these designs, and it's such a great feeling that people respond positively to it. e fish annika launched her 1st collection in 2010 and scored an immediate hit. renounce stores carried her

luxurious home textiles and accessories. now, her designs are available. world wide recent achievements include collaborations with so how home the home furnishing line of the exclusive club. so how house hotel and luxury designer, bathroom maker c p heart, eva, show nike, study journalism and fell into design more or less by accident. i couldn't find the designs that i wanted. so i for like, why don't i design them myself? because in my head, i knew exactly what i wanted, but i couldn't find a textile so i started off designing myself. it was the best decision ever to start my own designs because that's how i can exactly express my kind of our creative story. eva, embarked on her creative journey in fryeburg, in southern germany, where she grew up, the daughter of nigerian parents. her father is an art historian, her mother, a pediatrician, travel,

and visits to museums developed her interest in art and design. that was really from an early age, interested in interior design and in textiles and patterns of his leave, west africa and the west african narrative arrest african way of life is for me at the core of my work. but it's also a structured, very organized, which is, i think of the german elements which come in to then i think the combination of these 2 elements and makes it a think so versatile, that people from different backgrounds and, you know, different parts of the world kind of resonate with it and, and like the style. one of her inspirations is nigerian boutique and textile artist, chief ne k davies, oakland die both our ethnic europa, a west african ethnic group with a highly rich culture. this includes the typical idea a fabrics made using indigo di techniques. these are also reflected in even designs . so i think traditionally there's a lot of meaning and storytelling, and african textiles and in the african narrative. and i try to do the same. i

mean, i'm not designing traditional african textiles, but i'm trying to tell a story with my textile, i think then my journalistic background comes in as well. the designer tell stories from her life and her creations. she draws inspiration from experience as she's had along the way. she doesn't tell these stories in words, but through colors and shapes. starting with the colors. when i'm in nigeria, i often take pictures of everything that inspires me think that i see maybe a embroidery on a dress. so anything. and i think that's all kind of captured in somewhere in my brain and that a sketch. and i just let it go and flow and sketching of the long process from the original sketch to the finished design and can take several weeks. you know, we have to make a lot of tweaks and everything

a sketch and black and white 1st. once i'm happy with the design, then v introduce the colors that actually before into that design, eva has no doubt that she's found her true calling that everything she's done and has experienced over the years. her childhood, her background, her experiences as a t, the producer and fashion journalist, has led her right to where she is. now. this is more than a business. this is like an extension of myself. and i think of self love and to self um, expression and sharing this obviously with other people's not just that i do it for myself. i could sit at home and, you know, like do it all day, but sharing this with the world and i'm seeing the appreciation and the love that i'm getting really keeps me going, gets me out of bed every day. my story telling is as old as human kind, but how we tell stories varies eva show nike tells them through her african

inspire designs a great way to get to know what country is to fall in love with a native. but how easy is it to find that special, someone in germany? what should you consider on a date? we've got a couple of tips for those looking for love. this episode of meet the germans is the one about passion, relationships, and love in germany. let's be very german about it and saw some numbers to that. the germans believe in love with the site. the average age getting married is 33 gay marriage, the needles in 2017. most people in germany still meet their partner through mutual acquaintances, but mandating and up the not fall behind. somewhat unromantic lee. the german word for a dating site is singable, the singles market. there are various specialist markets when offer to like ones for the egan golf way. begins but what about when they're actually on the day?

so i've only updated one job and i thought i'd bring in some dw colleagues of mine to get a more rounded picture. i am only if i come from syria and the reason i'm from the u. s. my name is dana and i'm originally from israel. my name is fred. i come from rhonda, i'm leah and i'm from australia. i think that in germany it generally takes longer to get to know somebody. i don't know if you can call it a try your friends or something. once you're there. i think it really integrated completely in their live. people take actually time to even tell you the time when they say it, they really mean it and they don't say it nearly as often. they're not in your phase or like very aggressive which makes me feel far more relaxed and comfortable to go out. and that was a germans all with like you have to find appointment and then you expect like it's going to be this week and or the weekend off time maybe. and then his giving you appointment for next month on wednesday at 3 p. m. and i'm like, i don't know what i'm going to eat from oil. are the dating rules different in germany being punctual? it's like number one,

i think that tips done. rush take it for. i wouldn't exactly say that chivalry is dead in germany, but i do often have the feeling it's gone missing. sometimes nobody uses their real name or like facebook or they don't have what's out because it's too open. you have to expect that you have to click your bills and those are the ways it will come up to you and they'll ask you some or a good friend. and then we'll come from the german guy like present on a like. ok. had he known for germany, that sounds like competing of a joke. i think always through the eyes. if they give you a special look, maybe germans are not the greatest at communicating the fact that they are into, they don't tend to or maybe the excitement that not effect flirting. it's not clear . have you been on any unusual dates in germany? i think like a fellow, so i'm standing there. it is really weird kind of activity. so on a date we have to get naked in germany. awkward. so i know germans are quite fit

and they're interested in all kind of like outdoor activities, which is nice. but maybe i'm not into like bouldering on the 1st time we meet. sometimes people just pay, you know, let's take a walk or let's meet the pack for i've. it's not romantic to be in the fall or somewhere. on 2008 couples have been coming to this bridge in cologne, to leave a padlock as a lasting symbol of their love for one another. there are well over a 100000 padlocks on the bridge, adding an estimated 50 tons of weight. other cities around the world begun removing locks from their love bridges, exciting health and safety concerns, but at least for now, love has won the day in cologne. things were in cologne. we should probably talk about the rhine lands my bomb or may treat tradition in the night leading to the 1st of may and number. john gibbons, traditionally, guys of course go in search of a birch tree. transported by whatever means necessary. decorated with punted streamers and a love heart and tie it to

a lumpy outside of its home. for the more modern romeo, there were even may 3 to mid reservices. now in the sweet stuff, it's time for the sol. how open the gym and when it comes to sex must endure shot. i think most people in germany are still very reserved in shy. sorry. my name is latina tuan and i ran an erotic shop for women in cologne for 25 years. at 1st it was really tough. no one wanted to sit next to me at choir practice. once they found out what my job was but bottom down, what were your best sellers? wouldn't it? county? so we essentially lived off vibrator sales, penis shape one that weren't all that popular and kind of this is more secretive. it's all you need. it can be really small. and how old were your customers up from about 50 to 60 years old. one time a significantly older lady came in and said, my husband has been stroking his way right past the spot for 20 years. i've had enough. i'm buying a vibrator. it's coach me. poto,

it's time for me to love you and leave you. but before i go, here's a little love related wisdom from gemini, navigate to us in mocking. the way to a person's heart is through the stomach. that's hats out that someone to bargain in gemini, you don't want your heart on your sleeve, but on your tongue. oh and i had to leave both stiffness. old love doesn't rust. here in spain, they often come with beer and wine without even being ordered. topics are a welcome accompaniment to drink and they come in a great variety. we had a few recipes shown to us in madrid. ah, spain without toppers simply inconceivable. these little appetizers are found in seemingly endless varieties across spain. but what do you need to know about

spanish toppers? here's a look. oh, last hi, i'm berlin cortez. i'll show you my 3 favorite top us and how we spaniard, like to eat a minute. first up, gum bizarre helio or shrimp and garlic oil. this consists of shrimp, garlic, oliver oil, salt, cayenne pepper, and corey under. briefly stir, fry the shrimp with the garlic. when i one alone by sal domain thing for good shrimp and garlic oil is to leave the shrimp half ra, and let them finish cooking in the pots own heat for them, let them simmer in and they'll be spectacular again. if it that way. and where in spain do people eat top? us know that what is a places where we eat up as our very loud? they're usually informal places where people go to chat someplace they can get to on foot. that's typical for madrid. tap as far as the mighty this tradition is in most of madrid,

the l. c. i know ray de la venus tavern dates back to 19 o 9. it offers more than 50 kinds of top us tapia and spanish means go to each top us. it has a long history in spain. when i let her come to let that, but there are many versions of top as origins, pianos, but as a at the ag. but they say that when people went for a glass of wine abbe, they put lid for a top as on them, so they wouldn't fill up with flies while yet. and they could chat and drink and peace if they might been elaborating that next up. regulate, owed to rito for this you need little chunks of oxtail. bell pepper, boil red wine, an onion bay leaves dough salt. we'd stock cranberry sauce, sesame seeds and flour because the chunks of oxtail and flour and fry them. and don't forget the currents. add them to the meat

stock with the union, unread wind. no lacking, but vent has got the most important is to cook the meat for 4 hours over low heat it, then it stews in its own juices and ends up very tender. man, no you by yet you say you get a one of them. of course, the cranberry sauce is mixed in with the meat drippings to make the sauce cut the meat thin slices and wrap it in sheets of follow, or flicky pastry dough. done your deep fry boats and garnish it with a slice of bell pepper. and if it is, dish represents the bull fight it. i the meat wrapped in puff. pastry represents the bull dog loaded off. i islam with the paper is the bo fighters, red cloth. but i think when i got back, he lies that and these are his fears. that are in my bag the vast selection of top as available in spain raises the question about what drink goes best with the last

that was i can find them pretty bad at our place. the top as are mainly served with a canal, a small beer. and i guess that's pretty up. that has to be very cold in austin or else people drink vermouth on top from the barrel in the la tampa, nor white red or rosy one bardeen thought or saddle. all those go very well with top, i'm liam. bye. ah, we wind up with a classic wave, a serrato's or broken eggs for this one, you need ham potatoes, eggs, fried pepper's, oil and salt. escalate the lot of this secret up waybill as it ought to us by the potatoes and then the potato has to be boiled. why? so that when you break the egg over at the eggs, oaks into the potato and makes it super juicy. a 4th way was wrought. those are one of the most popular top as in spain, eggs and potatoes of the bases. but other ingredients,

like fried peppers can offer variety blanket as is bar serves, its top is with serrano hm. in . we've bought that very important. are the fried pud ronnie peppers it's typically spanish one off big summer spicy while others are not depending on where in spain you are, the top is may be served free of charge or not in the drill. do you generally get a simple toppa with a drink, but you can select it yourself. you have to pay for whatever top as you order that may take a bit more preparation. not quality a my, i can't imagine my life without top us or top as bars without going from one place to another. if y'all that in some remove is customary in others, it's beer or wine that's simply ideal.

around 6000000 tourists visit the greek capital athens every year, most head straight to the acropolis, the ancient citadel, towering above the city. with its renowned temples. athens has more to offer than pillars and statues. also competing for some of that attention, are the cities leap guards? oh, the famous acropolis is one of the most photographed landmarks in athens, if not all of greece. another popular subject for photos are the guardsmen in front of the greek parliament building every hour, 365 days a year in scorching heat or freezing cold the f. so ness performed the changing of the guard. this event demonstrates the pride of
