main capital madrid is. she useful and trendy. so how can you experience it without looking like a tourist reporter breton dennis got help from a local them took him under his wing. so how did the australian do is a spaniard out of a look at so what god's saying is the 2nd most visited country in all of europe in on here in madrid, to learn how to not be a tourist. it's one thing and of course was funny. it is nowhere to be seen. ross, the b b man. do you know? oh sorry. yeah. it was more yeah. a little bit. i'm sorry about that. that's very typical. so son is no and say so why?

we don't take it so seriously. i have heard this word, man. yeah, yeah. what does the it, what does this mean? but it's, you know, mean sort of, you can do it tomorrow way do today. okay. you can leave for tomorrow, especially today because it's like 40 degrees. all right, jesus. yeah. so what are we doing today? first thing getting out of here, this for tours. the unhappy that we're doing this in english because my spanish is practically nonexistent into that as a guide me than breakfast. who is the professional translator? he was showing me the spanish lifestyle in madrid. we had up to his peaceful or apartment to get us out of the scorching heat for a few hours. so rather, do you think it's a clay say that spaniards take a siesta the image of the system in spain, outside of spain. it is like lucia. yeah, because they all think all spaniards do that, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. it does exist, and a lot of people actually go see, have an up at if they come in some spanish towns when everything close between 2

and 5 pm. yes. that is sacred, but according to a survey from 2016 or the 18 percent of spaniards have a siesta on a regular basis and 60 percent never have a siesta to spot the late back stereotype spaniards and not lazy at all. according to an e. c d report span, you track up an average of 1644 hours of work each year, much smaller than the germans who work about 300 hours less so you know most yes the for us now, i'd like to learn a bit about how i can get along with people here. small talk is a very important part of that. so i'm heading only 3 people here. okay, you all the basic say say is more like, hey, you're like about a good time man. so if i call you this folder katasha folder, cuz i'm good and you get the last one and maybe i don't know of the dancing display

. that's the whole next level 123, you really minutes? actually how much i mean, what does that mean? i mean type foot high, pretty bullet, blah, blah. all hello, hello. pretty so i'm embarrassed. wow. what's that? yeah. the next stop to try. my luck. seems like kind symmetry to learn how to be a spaniard. i'll do one of the things that people he absolutely loved to buy lottery tickets. starting in august every year and under a spring he, people to in long lines to take part in the lottery. the actual drawing will only take place a christmas place where they say luxury in spain is very famous because like the main place and the very people from overs thing comes here. just divide because it's almost milwaukee one. 0 yeah, i can. okay. so i have my ticket now, my $20.00 ticket and i have to wait until christmas to find out if i have one is a thought

a summer afternoon and madrid many restaurants is still empty and i'm starting to worry a bit so rough. so when are we gonna start eating? oh, you're already hungry? yeah, that's $101111.00 night. that's what i put on my pajamas. now we're off to us. the 3rd cl sta and the oldest festival seats. popular celebrations, take place and oldest old around spain. you typically can find traditional spanish food here. finally, are you hungry? now it's something very typical for you. okay. answer see holes all deep fried land mercentary or the folds of membrane that has touched, but in 5th line to the lands at the top of the walls, they are normally sold at st festivals. uh okay. right. and i'm gonna try something really special. what is it done? it's done. so we wait until all my sent sleep. here i go.

as i say, not as bad as i thought it was gonna be just a nice price. sprintzel joining us time to try my new spanish all the mess it up on the okay. i feel like i've done a pretty good introducing myself to the philip only lady. anyway, i hope you've enjoyed yourselves so and so not only just to go into the sign in, so let's see what else we got to get up to october fence. the largest beer festival in the world is underway in unix, in southern germany, besides beer, pretzels are one of the most popular treats. but what goes into them and why are they so popular there? we got the inside scoop from a german baker. human kind is created so my conic shapes, the pyramid,

the will the cube, the french. so the front. so yes, the pretzel in germany. no other bait good stands for the bakers cropped like the front so you can tie yourself in knots, but you can't escape it every way and every variation. and even most so in southern germany where a day with that, pretzels is like and nights without the 11th. and i always liked them because without them tested, it's a piece of culture. once i'd say i'm a pretzel fan, who exactly invented the press so and gave them that unique shape. we'll get to that later. but 1st, how do you, vague pretzels, even on this there's no agreement variance in slavery and have their own variations, which one is better is a topic of debate. the 1st to present case is the bavarian pennsylvania. so best in brooklyn, maya is the 6th generation of his family to bake pretzels. i mean,

positionally for me personally. it's the shape that represents the bavarian bakers craddick. the dough is made of white flour, water east, and a blend of salt molds and moderate 1st. the doe is pushed out, then rolls and loops into the truck and not with touch ups by hand. in many bakeries, machines do most of the work, not least because work is increasingly hard to come by, john vic and when the very a, a baker definitely has to know how to loop a pretzel. it's part of our certification exam. so how does it work? it's easy for a mazda bank account to sending this, and i can teach it to you in 5 minutes. it's not that hard. so if you think this is, i'm a little, it goes like this, that and this because and totally easy business diagnosis. what really fascinated people the most is the looping sling and wow,

foster the prince's right it's, they're getting coated with a diluted soda life solution, which is why this sometimes called live pretzels. but isn't so to live. it's dangerous. logan's, i use it's in the fly is actually caustic. yeah. but in the oven, the high temperatures initiate a chemical process that converts the original lie and to a non toxic salt. and that's why when you touch the surface of a live product with the tip of your tongue, it tastes a bit salt, like even before you sprinkle salt on it and the uniform shape, the chest, not brown. and of course, the splits in across from the baking that'll adds up to the typical bavarian pretzel. and what about this way be and variation where of the district got where our dressler is a 4th generation mazda baker?

well, certainly just personally, i prefer a lie roll pretzels, no problem, but this is about pretzels, it's way beyond as everywhere. they start with the diet, but with more moderate and then the bavarian ones, the most obvious differences, the shape especially noticeable in what's called the belly and beyond the reach. because i guess maybe the most important thing about the sway being pretzel is the thin arms that later turn crispy while the belly is nice and fluffy. and then turns out soft. we've done all the advice is the final and decisive step comes off to the prince. who has been coated with life? it's sweet. now you make a cut. and that leaves the belly white because no light comes in contact with it with that kind of logging couples. and that's what defines this way be, and pretzel means this isn't. and when you eat one, it's country one cox. the pretzel shape is taught to be over a 1000 years old,

having evolved over time from a roman ring to the present day version. today's pretzels range from savory to sweets. kind of, there's no time of day when you don't even grad schools and so you can meet them any time and all the time. the variance, for instance, might them with a traditional view associates for breakfast or 2 in october, the 5th radians enjoy them, but upfront, so for instance, at any time of day they're also popular. be owns us, especially in the united states. german immigrants introduced them to the country over 300 years ago. but the debate continues about which is the pretzels, top and bottom. we're now often leo in northern france, where every year on the 1st weekend and september, the city is transformed into a huge flea markets collector shoppers and for us from all over the world head

there. and we were there to these people aren't just that an ordinary shopping event. there in europe, the largest fully market and leave in northern france. the annual market is a paradise for bargain hunters and vintage leonards. but what makes the gone for the lead and so special. what does this roost are doing here? we answer the most frequently asked questions. hi, i'm valentina, and today i am your guide at the europe's largest flea market today will come out of the go. valentino boys is a digital content creator. she's passionate about all things. second hand, she hasn't missed a single behind the east and she moved to lead from italy 5 years ago to study. what exactly is the lead?

that's what i'm going to do. this is a historic market and they think back to the 12th century to do today. there are some 8000 vendors here. yeah, we're expecting more than 2000000 visitors or not. you can literally get lost here itself. play for $250.00 from the the but nothing seems to determine the numerous visitors, many come from abroad to leave for the 2 day event. the come out, i'm, are you happy with the blogs you boss, you? are, you are a bomb? went to the gigantic flea market, takes place in the shadow of leels, 17th century flemish architecture. what can you buy there? no new. we're in the house of different how does e, this is where people from views sell their own stuff because of my apps really love

the vintage and secondhand clothes. i'm always dressed and 2nd time to myself says the smoke just because you can buy, you can find all kinds of things that the bodily books, experts of objects, games, even sometimes things that are quite bizarre events. this particular visit the what's the craziest thing that you can find there about the, the, the, you can find so many bizarre things on, for example, this stuff through stone measure the miles, the seller bounce it and he said he didn't end up being slow certified. so that's good to leave the house about 45 years to cut on some capital paper, some new the funds of hunting. like to have this kind of thing to decorate the country homes. i wouldn't buy it. it's not really my style.

the need may be a dream for bargain hunters, but not everything here is exactly cheap. the most expensive thing is they're all. so i'm taking this here who so rental objects to collection company . for example, jewelry, luxury, clothing, statues, paintings, and of course there's a much more expensive then you tell me a bit about the history of this lovely objectivity. it's a lamp in the art deco style. it was created in the 1930. i'm selling it for 550 euro from 550. yours is quite a high price. so the next was piece of the vast

array of brick. a brack is mind boggling. valentino meanwhile has bound to vintage pieces for her wardrobe. it's a bit of a size i i think it represents my style really well. let's see that the symbols really go to nice deal at the part of the see you next year. next step were off the south eastern europe to albania. this small country has just under 3000000 inhabitants, and that makes it an inside are tit for travelers. in europe, the bulk and republic has lost on offer, majestic mountains and areas which of, of largely been untouched by mass tourism. this is not the lot if this is in scotland or norway and no business in switzerland either. this is the bane. yes. a country that has all of that and much more. one of your best kept secrets

for a long time i being i wasn't expecting to say positive outside of it was seen this poor. i'm not even familiar, but over the past 2 years, the tourist arriving. so what's changed and what somebody liked the template and i take you. 3 the road trip through the country and show you how to get her on, on my schedule for the next few days, the just and across the mountains. for now though, i'm off to the capital to run business with naso bane. yeah, i mean, the south side of pena, tradition needs maternity nature meets night life here on as to how to. and it's kind of a square, it's right, edit center. if you want to get out of here on and discover the rest of the brain. yeah. you can adhere to the bus station things minneapolis can take you to almost every calling off of the schedule is always the easiest to understand. and

so, and they don't necessarily stick to any specific times. so it's best to ask those of us themselves. we always happy to help if you are confident drive us and willing to take risk. you can also get around with a rental car like i did. let's go the most important driving rules. don't be shy with a horse. i've any has never been particularly prosperous. and in the 19 ninety's, the country slipped into an economic crisis, causing many, yet to lose all of the savings. today, the prospect of a cheap location attracts many tourists to have been new hotels. so springing up everywhere and the beach is being prepared for hots of tourist over the years, it has become increasingly easier to get here and enjoy the sea and sun without breaking the bank. but the rise of tourism has also changed the country rates or conservation versus economic development. it is for this tourism. this

debate experience is being weighed on across ibm software. for example, an apple is currently being built in the midst of a texas landscape. i'm looking for nature and adventure and now i'm on my way north to select the from the ruin. so for us of our castle, i watched the sunset, the number of choices here and the cash was sent off and off on our bane. yeah. it's manageable entrance to the cost of cost 3 years 50. and the view is priceless based mountains back. that would be our next step. and to resend, i have to leave for it to you, honey in the morning, because the ferry across the kamani to pots from here on you once a day, the crossing to the other shore, fiesta takes 2 and a half hours. it's a bit windy but easily what it cost to do is just funding for

the rest that was stretched as for 34 kilometers from fiesta. i continue to the very, in the middle of yes, get a new move to the so called cross mountains. they're called crust mountains because for a long time this region was so cut off that people lift you according to a set field loss. but don't very, i've been yes just to say for travel as, as other destinations in europe. because although that cliche is widespread, that daniel split of crime, it is just the case a that's a woman's happening alone. not only you, but also very well most i've been is iceland have been extremely hospitable. the i don't have any is surrounded by snow. it peaks, some of them reaching almost 2700 new tests. so i do what would be at the top of every visit us to do list, go for like a lot,

the best. and wilks in the area and transport every level of difficulty. however, you should be experienced or bring someone with you. who is the trails. i'm not always can you mocked. i've been yeah, really has it on on what nature and life is cities, mountain speeches, sun, snow and all of that spring codes with a sense of adventure traveling for i've been yeah. might not always be the most straightforward thing, but it's well worth, it's bring flexibility and a payoff, decent hiking boots and put up and yeah, on your bucket list. climate change is arguably one of the greatest challenges facing human kind dot. you hardest ties, beers tech are mixed environmental protection, tangible through his work, through interactive and immersive art installation set, send a strong signal know how much one single cigarette butts
