side, the dot com. the hiring is the most popular street food in the netherlands, especially in summer. we take a look from its perspective. touch far away in the caucasus mountains. we visit our school, the a community of remote villages in georgia. and our viking adventure is only for books and movies, not for france. we meet every year in iceland for a viking festival. all that's coming up on your own macs the . we start off with the most popular street food in the netherlands, young, freshly caught herring. this specialty has called status among the dutch. you can

simply grab them from a fishmonger and down them raw veggies. how most of my friends enjoyed me in one piece with all the fixings. i'm the herring, the new herring, a favorite street food of the dutch. they actually wait on you for me, but why? well, i'll tell you. it's early morning in downtown amsterdam. i've just come from the wholesalers. not much going on at the market yet, but you'll see soon enough. it will be buzzing. without him, i'd be nowhere. my fishmonger and partnering crying, he's always in a good mood of looks good. i am jack, and this is the push off which it was started by my father in law. i work here for around 45 years. jack likes to start his day with a hearing breakfast. i think i've you read the best or 1000 work breakfast on his grades, but everywhere i missed my air in the seas. mine day,

caring season begins in mid june the 5th season. it's when we 1st show up in the shops for actually cause it's party time in the fall and done the fish sandals see food restaurants the folks have been waiting for me for months now and no one done. i'm healthy and tasty. both hearing that dutch and tourists are in love with me. i'll wait for the new harry and get no report and the christmas it takes like a c. like a fresh air, like life. 3 deep, healthy. and so i think the best thing ever. i love it, my mom and i came here like 10 years ago for side and still we still go. it got like a soft state. i'm going to put it mail for you though. it's an angel on your son.

popped around court on cute in salt for a few days before being served. there's one more step. if you're a bit squeamish, you might want to look away. cleaning means lose the gaps, the dose opens the skin and the head, and the bones an annoyance when eating, and that's it. jack and his knife clean some 500 fish at day. what's it oh for the best thing to do to be to have it was fresh regard then that there was clean your arrows in the shop. you should have passed the show. yes. only take a ring when someone is glen minutes phone. so we can either right away, you know, modesty, i'm the great love and comfort of the judge. even if i've got some competition in straight food, mainly from these keep broiled chicken. oh, well,

kind of calls from free kindle. imagine that from vending machines. midday at the market is all about st. food. it has to be seen and tasted. have you tried, perf, which is little pancakes, end of the renounced truthful food, but there is no mincing words. none are in the same street as me. even now full mcqueen beatrix is booked on me, but nobody knows me as well as jack i mean there's this all the features different when you eat them already, you start to load the differences. you could say we're true individual lives to maximize your enjoyment. here are a couple of inside. i'd say it's redone, you to to use them to pressure them is really the nice touch sometimes when a new hearing came,

i come with friend steve. this i did and you eat 6 non stop. that is the 1st one we eat with no pickles, no audience because we want to taste it. but later in the year it went a little bit smelly. so they took the on the arizona and they go to negative days. more interesting if you haven't really nice evening or a lot of booth and the next morning you eat to having no problem with reality. and it's also it's, i don't know why, but it's a devil of your grade. faster. so you'll, you'll become smarter of fish has to drink well, like a fish. so i go best with a unit of a gym or a corn vine, aged in an open barrel. it's a dignified conclusion of my day of glory pros and how do i make everyone feel on a day like this?

happy faces. i can't think of anything better and you've got to keep in shape, any daring but tools for another herring told scenes till next year. efficient, punctual and rigid. these are stereotypical depictions of german work culture. but what is the german work ethic? i really liked our scottish reporter kind of home all takes a closer look at the reality, including paid time off types of stuff. i just have to finish a few things off. no, no, you can do it to our that's go home. did you ever stop to think that maybe the reason why germans are so famous for their work ethic and efficiency is because they actually respect their working hours and therefore their free time in my opinion and german working culture is actually pretty great to me explain why good salaries and flexible working hours are super important to germans. salaries in

germany are typically higher than they are in the u. k or other european countries, especially when it comes to public sector jobs like teaching. although this, as of course, depends on the sector that you're working in. but talking about salary is still a difficult issue here, although there are hope so this will change with the pay transparency loss. german bureaucracy is notorious, and the amount of paper used is astronomical. the germans print everything is no wonder digitalization is just the limping along here. the average german 4, it's for almost 40 years, which is considerably higher than the european average. the typical working day is 9 to 6 or 8 to 5. the minimum amount of holiday is 20 days a year, but most people get even more than 30. you're fully expected to take all those days . so you don't need to feel guilty or stressed about taking holiday. the same goes for 6 days. it's you don't need to feel guilty about taking your day off work due

to sickness, and nobody's going to ask you any questions. you can normally have 3 days off before you need a doctors note on sick days are usually paid. one thing offers workers argue that most often is whether to open or close the window. the germans loves fresh air at work. okay, we need to talk about the gender pay, cash women, and on average power hour, almost $50.00 less than men compared to the rest of europe. germany has one of the highest gender pay got. this is for multiple reasons. women are often more likely to work and part time jobs work in lower pay jobs or negotiate less money. germany is actually one of the countries in europe where people work the least, probably because they actually stick to their working hours. but the desire for a better balance between gainful employment or the one hand um private less than the other is definitely growing in surveys show that more and more people are feeling over a while and with their workload to berlin. social science center is researching the

issue. and what is the younger generations attitude toward work is generally really that workshop i work, researcher and lena hit can tell us. i want to say they are lazy. i think they have somewhat different priorities. they don't put paid book employment above all else the and in the world. and i think this is all can also have really beneficial elements. you know, if you think about democracy, you know, people need to engage, you know, you also have to have time for raising kids for taking care of elderly people. so i think that's also positive aspects of this. and, you know, just because you don't want to look for too, i'll of class does not mean that you are lazy, put us, and how does work culture in germany actually developed over the last few years, twice as many people will come home nowadays as they did in the time before the pending and of course this changes, you know, how people intact at the workplace, how they organize meetings over all the labor market is doing pretty well. it's

easy for, i'm so used to find a new job employer looking for new personnel. they're really having sometimes a hard time finding at eclipse in employees and organizations try to feel as by and attracting women in particular motus, to join the labor force. they also seek to attract well costs from other countries to fill these open positions. right now you're all clued up on german working culture. here's some vocab. you need to know fiat and this directly translates to celebratory evening, but it actually just means the end of the working day. the headphones. this is your salary request, which is typically mandatory on job applications. are glad sites flexi time. this means you have a fixed number of hours, but you can choose more or less when you want to take them.

that's always good time for it's 6 pm, which means it's fiat and switch often comes hand in hand. but if i add the personally, it took me some time to simulate into working cultures here. but now i really appreciate that work. life balance. next steps in inside are tit for the adventurous traveler. we're off to a remote region of georgia to visit the mountain village of bush coolly at an altitude of 2200 meters or schooley is one of the highest settlements in europe. here in the foothills of georgia's highest peak mount scott, a time stands still. although it's one of your ups, most remote villages, more and more tourists are flocking here. we want to know why got onto bus. hi, i'm layla trying to lani and this is my son mama. okay. hello. a quote of the we lived here school, the whole to move, come along with us to have a look around. took hold of us forcefully lies in this fun nephew,

region nearly 400 kilometers north west of georgia's capital tbilisi. nearly 10 our car journey will get you here. the village is one of a number of settlements. it. skyline is dominated by these medieval towers. that date back to the 9th century. around 30 are still standing. some of them in other parts of the village earned unesco status in 1996. and like many families here, layla and monro, cuz families have their own tower to the bank who told us, well, the main purpose was defense. and when the enemy came, they would look the doors in the tower and climb up to the top floor. there is a special window on the top floor and they used to throw stones at the enemy from the access within this on the sand that are coming up for the saudi on skills these towers. connect us to a full fathers. if you thought about football, they connect us to a past history true and even the architecture for the system. we also have

transcribed often, not to get the funds. and now the old towers and the landscape are attracting flocks of tourists from horseback riding to exploring the natural landscape. tourism has opened up. this one's isolated community. in the past, inhabitants lived off agriculture. now almost every family and or school, the offers guest rooms to tourists. layla's family runs a small guest house with views of the mountains and we were the 1st to do tourism in ocean cooley. what is she off? let's see. loved. we always try to warmly welcome get through before sunday we love getting back to both fellow georgians as well as foreign tourists. somebody's visitors, travel long distances to see attractions like dilemma re a church built in the 10th century. you get

a feel for the local spirit once it's come to excuse me for ages, just to feel like the incredible mountains, what kind of spin se coulter. we also offer foods which is delicious. i'm here for a 2nd time and i really love this place. it has picked up a spectacular views. we are hike us from to the public and it's all 1st time in georgetown. and it's amazing. that's like quite the same thing ma'am. and so like i just want to have uh, the 1st one. so at this game for that, a typical day for a local leg layla starts by milking the cows and then preparing traditional spin any dishes. like cook diary, a meat filled bread. temperatures dropped to minus 15 in the winter months. so hardy meals are especially important for locals, and the harsh mountain is climate. 10, very tasty. 30 years ago,

left front layla to or shortly from the neighboring town of missed you. she had a rough start. ok all back then we didn't have electricity or water. do you have those? how? so in the beginning, it was very difficult if it will got to this or offload with dogs just to do, but now are falling in love with this place. and i can even stay in message for 2 days was back over in our school. so you'll find one school to shops for churches, some cafe, and a special museum run by another local family. here visitors can hear stories about how people lived in this medieval towns centuries ago. let's see, one of the most police oldest residents is a local store retailer up on pseudo, in ancient times, babies were put into this kind of cradle pits. the god i, i'd say that the women needed next to it and put the baby to sleep by rocking the cradle in single lola. by now need on. i now not getting

a wireless dieting again. that's why and if you're lucky for to you will play this one nation lute the generation. she is one of only 2 people in the village who can do so the who she goes to when you live in. usually you fall in love with this place and it's hard to leave for the journey to or school the may be long. but the breath taking use the historical charm and friendly locals definitely make it worth while. iceland is also a must see destination. even the vikings knew that already the 1st viking explorers came to the island from scandinavia in the 9th century. now fans gather each year near the capital reykjavik to celebrate this ancient culture. i'm time today, and this is the biggest viking market in iceland woke up in many

parts of the world like here in iceland, vikings when known for writing and pillaging. but what does biking culture mean to iceland is like country today? and what misunderstandings exist about these culture? i'm thinking of as a, as a positive. um, i like to say it is a little bit more dominant than my regular life. positive and passion is learning how to handle the historical weapons vikings. we noticed fees and skilled laurie is i've been training a lot for this battle since 2010. i'm ready for this and we'll see what happens. and like in the viking age today in the 26th edition of the viking festival in huffman a few of the 13 columbus is south of ricky of the battle is one of the highlights mostly men. but also women take part in the fights tundra. he has been coming to the festival for moving a decade. so the bible is demonstrate the how,

of how powerful these problems were. and in some cases how short they were the largest bottom in iceland, for example, was 700 people and it took all a 45 seconds. blanking is came from scandinavia, between the 8th and 11th century, and settled in many remote parts of the world. the world viking is often misunderstood as an ethnic affiliation. vikings were actually people of various ethnic groups in scandinavia who took to the safe trading settlement and conquering many of the people at the festival. today a members of the local viking club, which has $200.00 members, are club, is about celebrating and culture that's behind the profession of being of i think it's about the food. it's about the song since about the funding that's about the community that was behind all of these very, very angry men that went the raping and pillaging. i was assigned days,

icelanders will be celebrating viking live this year at the 5 day festival, together with some $22000.00 visitors from several european countries and the us 33 year old. so you can still to is one of the women who train at the club. she joined in 2013. 1 of the things she likes the most from viking culture is the near equal status of women. and women in the writing community are uh, they're equal. it's always has been already from the viking age. women had in the last look more rights than they have had before or since and many other places you can do whatever you want. you can, you can do due to crafting due to shooting of the bows. the throat x is due to fighting and was influenced as biking, culture have on every day in modern life. you always know immediately when you visit the home of a liking, because there wouldn't be like bows on the walls or weapons signing in the coats.

then even in their normal lives, when we go back to every day jobs, then you always have that little bit of of liking around at tundras tents where he and his wife, sales and hand crowds. we made part of his family. this year he came together with his wife, christina, and this son, they method of biking festival in denmark. a few years ago, we are trying to make people more knowledgeable about the fact that this has such a varied culture behind it. whether that be craft sooner. um, a living history. there's a lot of misunderstandings going around because people watch vikings on tv, people watch the norsemen. and even though it's gotten a lot better, i feel is very important to still be able to do this and show people how it would have been like out of markets or what they would actually be doing. the big battle commences to take pause. you need at least 48 hours of training. these

people here train twice a week. men and women from the viking club fight shoulder to shoulder tundra was not so lucky this time. i have a i'm tired, i'm sorry. but it's always worth it there. a survivor was really good to his. it was really part of outside of is my brother why does fantastic is this the best thing and much progressive set lives and feel us worry is even up to thousands of years. the vikings and big complex cultures still fascinate us. is it possible to create art from the labyrinth of our big cities? brit anthony white. think so. use this is 5 single and a navigation system to cycles pictures into maps. we see how he does it in manchester. anthony fort from england makes you st. are with the streets in 2016, aided by this java gps,

as you started peddling out faces and figures on britain's road systems and maps. the app was originally designed to help athletes keep track of their activity. anthony hoyt uses his bicycle to draw here. his canvas is the streets of manchester in northern england. has an idea of it's been around for awhile or of people all over the world doing them to, to varying so standards. and i've seen a few of these. i did my 1st 15 years ago, i suppose. and so i kind of go and see what i can find. and i found adults in children which is where i live. i'm looking back right now to be rubbish ready, but um, i sort of figured out what to do, what to look for on a just sort of thing doing and have a sense. anthony, for each generally covers 80 to 120 kilometers to make one image. in manchester, he's trying for a more complex motif that usually takes him between 4 to 6 hours to write the distance. but it can take up to 3 months to plan a $50.00 plan to draw

a picture of ducks across my chest, driven by the st. patton. really i, i tend to look at maps and see what jumps out on the slides looking at clouds, seeing what, cuz i see a picture in them. and it happens to be ducks by so the big duck festival. but i'd like to sort of try and do something a bit complex. you traces out a wide variety of subjects, elephants in birmingham faces in sheffield, children, ham and carter, yorkshire terrier and leaves, in a flock of birds and bristol. companies creativity can best be seen on the app. it was his christmas sketches that 1st drew international attention. the. it certainly seems to become a tradition. um, the 1st one i did was the same man. i'm not was just going to go rid of this all day because this one but it went down so well. i had so much major retention and people messaging me some all over the world. it was really so gratifying. so i

thought we would actually try and do something else and then yes, is the conversations. now the pressures on and i think something for this, anthony has acquired the epithet peddling picasso by profession. he works as an appraiser of historic buildings. but he originally studied product design, the detailed planning and implementation of his drawings provides a creative balance to his daily routine. there's, there's always obstacles and i look at the map and i find what i want to find. but then i have to, to go and just google straight to the right into particular junctions. i find that the, the nice clear line that i've gotten an, an aerial view, i'm assuming, and actually it's around a wireless right around the same as know twice. so how does a move on to, to junctions work out how i'm going across busy bit, whether i feel safe riding on that particular. but the road is latest piece. requires them to peddle 76 kilometers around manchester for about 5 and

a half hours you can use the really of gps tracking out to follow his ducks as they hatched in the form of a video. i'm very pleased with that is coming up. as i planned is coming up the right side. yeah. it's good. it's really nice coming back and seeing how much as the size has changed, and there's some pretty new architecture around and some pretty good cycling infrastructure to write some cycle. boston some places anthony white plans to also cycle outside of britain and paris, france for example, where he's got a drawing in mind the hand for a challenge. he'd like to go to the united states and figure out ways to make drawings in the grid pattern, city streets over there. and that wraps up another edition of your own max. you can find more fun stories from europe on our social media channels. so be sure to check them out. thanks for tuning in and join us again next week.
