how 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 closes between 2 and 5 pm. so yes, that is sacred. but according to a survey from 2016 or the 18 percent of spaniards have a siesta on a regular basis at 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 how do you know? mmm inquiry people here. okay, well the basic phase say is more like, hey, you're like about a good man. so if i call you this folder, katasha folder, cuz i'm good and you yeah. the last one, it may be, i don't know if i should be answering this great with this whole not go up 123. you really minutes? actually, how much i mean, what does that mean though? i mean type of hyper on a drop off audit. hello. hello, pretty so i'm embarrassed. wow. what's that? yeah, to the next stop. i'll 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 law. very. the actual drawing will only

take place of christmas displays other se luxury in spain is very famous because like the main place in the very people from overs thing comes here. just divide because it's almost milwaukee one. 0 yeah. okay. 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 in madrid. many restaurants is still empty and i'm starting to worry a bit. so right. 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 and finally you hungry. now i'm going to do something very difficult for you. okay. answer. see holes all deep fried land,

a century for the fault of membrane that has touched the consent, signed to the lands at the top of the walls. they are normally sold at st festivals . okay, right now you're going to 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 going to be. just paste right. friends are joining us time to try my new spanish. all the mess it up. all of the okay. i feel like i've done a pretty good introducing myself to the phyllis, only lady. anyway, i hope you've enjoyed yourselves so and so not only just to going to the sign in solo,

see what else we got to get off the october sense. 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 and the french so the front. so yes, the print so in germany, no other bait good stands for the bakers cropped like the press. 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 bit 11th. and i always liked the country without them thought it. 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 and slaves have their own variations, which one is better is a topic of debate. the 1st present case is the bavarian pennsylvania. so best in brooklyn, maya is the 6th generation of his family to bake pretzels for me presently. 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 malls. and marjory. first, the dobies portion, doubt vend 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 baker when the area

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 while foster the prisoners, right, it's they 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 is i use, it's in the fly, is actually caustic yes. 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 full generation mazda vacant? personally, i prefer a lie roll into a pretzel is 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 often vices. the final and decisive step comes off to the

prince, who has been coated with lies. it's whiskey sweet. now you make a cut, and that leaves the belly white because no light comes in contact with it, with that kind of loving combs. 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. let's give 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 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 tourists 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 is this rooster doing here? we answer the most frequently asked questions. hi, i'm valentina, and today i am your guide,

the europe's launches on the market today would all 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 different identity delete. 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. so quite from 250 from the, the but nothing seems to determine the numerous visitors, many come from abroad to leave for the 2 day event. the come items, 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 were in the house of different. how does he see this is where people from views sell their own stuff because i absolutely love the vintage and secondhand clothes. i'm always dressed in 2nd time to myself says i love it as a let it 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. and then this particular visa, the, what's the craziest thing that you can find there, 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. so to place them that's good to leave the house about 45 years to cut on some capital paper, some of 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 hand who so rattle object. so collections composite, 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 years. 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 found to vintage pieces for her wardrobe. it's a bit of a size i. i think it represents my style really well. these are the symbols though. i go to nice deal at the part of the. see you next year. next step, we're off to south eastern europe to albania. there's small country has just under $3000000.00 inhabitants, and that makes it an insider tip for travelers. in europe,

the balkan republic has lost on offer, majestic mountains and areas which have largely been on, touched 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 and arriving. so what's changed and what somebody liked the template and i take you. 3 a road trip through the country and show you how to get their own on my schedule for the next 2 days, the just and across the mountains. for now though, i'm off to the capital to run business with naso bane. yeah. me south side of van. yeah. tradition needs maternity nature meets night life here on as to how to kind

of x square is 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 a best schedule is always the easiest on a center and they don't necessarily stick to any specific time. so it's best to ask those items themselves. we're 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 chief occasion

a trip. so many tours still have been new hotels. so springing up everywhere and the beach is being prepared for hearts of tourists 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 are conservation versus economic development. it is for this tourism. this, the base experience is being weighed on across ibm se, 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 a bain. 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 pretty early in the morning because the ferry across they come on a few 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 that what distressed is for 34 kilometers from fiesta. i continue to divide bona very in the middle of yes. get any move to the so called crust 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 of fail loss. but don't very, i've been yes just to say for travelers as of a destination. so in europe, because although the cliche is widespread that daniel split of crime, it is just the case a, as a woman standing alone. not only is it facing of fun also very well. most have been
