a laptop but also when it comes to sustain dependency information, i'm trying square foot. i'd like to text it on d. w. travel, you can have it. what about you? and what's your opinion? feel free to write your thoughts in the comment? the 35 years since the fall of the berlin wall, we take a look at where you can still find parts of it today. 441 years of tradition. what's it like studying at the university of edinburgh? and 50 years of lies, we learn some facts about a tie and cuisine which may shock the pasta on of you. these stories and more coming up on your own mac. the . it's hard to imagine today the berlin was once divided by

a wall for round 28 years this i conic structure shape the faith of the city. to mars the 35th anniversary of the fall of the berlin wall, we explored the german capital and other places in the country and covering numerous traces of history. this year, march 35 years to the fall of the burden, what it wants to buy the burden in germany for decades, bringing misery to many people. so what's left of it today in the berlin wall fell in 1989. i wasn't born yet, but later i saw the videos of the many emotional people what seemed impossible has come to a peaceful revolution. so let's start exploring the wall in berlin and germany. the in

our 1st location is sick one, charlie on phoenix trust, which was one of the most famous border crossings ever. it's hard to imagine today that world war 3 almost broke out here. at the end of world war 2, the allies had divided not only germany, but also berlin into ford. occupations on the western zones were administered by the us, british, and french, and the eastern zone by the soviets, known as the gd. at 1st, the vocal still cost of water, but that ended when the duty i built the wall on august 13 1961. the wall was built and all the rest. berlin was seated us here at chick when charlie, american and soviet tanks drove up, armed with light immunization, and stood facing each other for more than 16 hours. berlin and the world held their breath. fortunately, the tasks went through the situation. calm down and the wall became a sad part of everyday life. there's not much left of the wall, a checkpoint, charlie today. it's merely a popular photo spot. but you can find out what the,

what actually look like in other places. are 2nd stop is the memorial and burn hours trust. it consists of a large opener, exhibition kind of documentation center. these will show where the wall one stood mainly through the middle of bernard shots. and when the wall was built over night on august, the 13th 1961 displayed, people jumped out of the windows under now were shots. their houses were in the east, but the street was in the west. over the years, the simple wall became a sophisticated border fortification system. the 140 people died either by being shot or from accident that occurred by trying to is

deep at the burden was the memorial. the knowledge dresser is very moving, since it's a stars, reminder of the one strategic history of the city. the, our 3rd spot is completely different. it's colorful, careful, and original. the east side gallery is 1.32 meters, long spaces that are just from all over the world after the fall of the war. it isn't inside one of the largest. so when they are galleries in the world, it's just want to walk along here and look at over a 100 paintings. we are now leaving berlin and driving to our 4th location, a place called point alpha. this us opposite ration post was on the border of former west germany, exactly between the present a states of syringe here and his voice was always

considered a major hot spot in the cold floor. and that's because the us troops were certain that the soul reduced where to invade the west bear would invade here. the terrain is relatively stopped. so during the surprise attack, soviet troops could have penetrated very quickly and deeply into west germany. that's why the american citizen observation forced right here as close as possible to the ddr border fortifications. the 1st and last stop on our journey lies on the border between 3 and you and the area. the small village of more lovely. the small stream has always been the natural border between spring yeah. and of area. and it was never no problem on 21945. when the allies divided germany between themselves suddenly westmore level. it was in the americans or what ceased more lavoy. it wasn't the soviet so the administrative border had suddenly become on

a national borders separating friends and families. people from the western part of the village could no longer go to the same school or far because favor now in the east. it was also forbidden for people on opposite sides to waive or even read each other. this eventually became impossible anyway. as the border fortifications were extended, pushing people farther apart, american soldiers, nickname the place, little burden. the people, it's more like words left part of the walls standing so that future generations could understand what it meant to live in a divided village in a divided country. this going to was our search for cases the 1st 335 years after the fall of the wall in berlin, germany. we continue with our series about studying in europe, which offer students a glimpse of what life could be like if they went abroad. we covered cambridge madrid, and the lawn, and today we're taking a closer look at what student life could be like as

a centuries old university in scotland. what's it like to study? and his start at embrace scotlands with world class universities, a huge and national population. and a golf at old town that said to inspire, how are you supposed to you probably want to know how you can study we're meeting some international students. he'll tell you about their lives here. indigo is from the us and is just graduated with a degree in international relations. first of these question, why edinburgh to edinburgh was always really my top choice. i came in and visited here before i even knew that there was a big university here. um and i just, i absolutely follow up with the city and i think what surprised me was how warm the people are in the city. you know, everyone says that the weather so bad, which i swear it's not. we get a lot more sun than people give us credit for that, but yet everyone is so nice that there's

a lot of emphasis on community and safety. so my friends in the states, we're definitely a lot more stressed that the university crews, they weren't receiving the same kind of support their class schedules were a lot heavier than mine at denver, it's home to 4 different university. international students make up 44 percent. the student body at the university of edinburgh, that's over $24000.00 students. and besides the london edinburgh is the most popular student destination in the the. well, you may think of it as a rainy city, a buyer in the rain full in edinburgh is less than the scottish average. and it rains less annually than in room in unit and in new york. so i guess i'm just, i'm lucky. edinburgh is less expensive than london or paris intensive, living costs more expensive and still criminal. lisbon,

nice and international relations student from india is showing us how he budgets for centrals. so did you know that the university of edinburgh recommends between $920.19 pounds per month as a bunch? it sounds about right. i, there's a big gap and that's a good because there's and weight. he's a lot in the city in cost of living is really effective that as well. so we have oranges, you know, we have some minutes. we have some chicken eggs, some bread and displeasure item because the bottle of gen to try and keep it. but under $500.00 pounds every month, which essentially includes most music going out and except for it. and unless you're using taxi's or something, transport costs pretty much negligible in the city like that. and the way you can walk around and use the bus for free. that's what our bus boss looks like. it's a young scott carton,

so it gives us free access to the bus or we need to stop it and the bus number is loading for lively night life and culture institutions. so how the students flow of things, i mean it was done in english and lots of the students from the us to the inside ski read 170 different societies. we have a wine teeth, a society of irritating society and socrates in society, a whiskey chasing a suit. really, any insurance you could simply problem. we represent, we have a little community for it and we have 2 quizzes a week to the university a well. but throughout the city you can find at least 5 places a night anywhere your and um yeah, i think most of it really closer for as i bonded with also if i was here, i left some stuff in each wouldn't have this old character. each one has its own regular use of each of them has its own flavor,

even though it's sort of in its own taste to it. and i love the, so how the studying at, in for a sound to you or you spell bound, but it's go think bt well a little bit off by the rain. so the violent conflict in the middle east has been dominating international news for months. the divide between cultures seems insurmountable, and signs of hope are needed. now, more than ever, we met up with a couple from germany who were committed to reducing prejudice and hatred. both professionally it and privately, the southern new cima, muslin, and mary mendo, whose jewish have been happily married since 2020. they visit the berlin zoo like any other family, and their living proof that peaceful coexistence is possible, in spite of different nationalities and religions,

and 50 meg is active because people are always asking, how can you live together as a muslim in to do? are you compatible? don't to religions clash on and off and on the, in our daily lives that doesn't really play any part on it. we celebrate jewish holidays. we celebrate muslim holidays. us and we speak hebrew men or do at home, and somehow it's a good thing, at least for us to force me into service. and uh, i think with his references, i married was born in israel and came to germany as a student. now he's director of the anne frank educational center in frankfort and a consultant to george evello on anti semitism sub a new a team. i grew up in frankfort as the daughter of pakistani refugees. now she's a political scientist doing research for the german interior ministry on issues of his long, my phobia in germany. their union is one of life. obviously, statements, often people see us as a symbol of hope for the middle east conflict, but we're sorry to disappoint them. our marriage is not a peace project,

it's really just a normal marriage. she's an incense, no model you no matter how open and liberal the 2 communities may claim to be. for many on both sides. marriage between jews and muslims goes too far. the couple of parents also struggled to accept it. that's what this app is kind of fine. of course, they weren't jumping for joy. neither of our families are free of the stereotypes and prejudices that are so prevalent that all not about the middle east conflict. either the tires in times in a mirror and family are directly affected by the conflict and each side has preconceived notions about the other. so at 1st it was hard work, but what really made a difference was simply a 1st actual meeting, the bus as of a falling and not taught this. i've been to the beginning on the couple travel to jerusalem and visited both jewish and muslim holy sites. so i've got to know

marin's family in israel, the we met up with a couple in a berlin hotel since 2021. they've been writing a column entitled, jewish muslim dinner for a major german newspaper. they also talk about their children and it says, i think it is a 5 actually when it comes to the children, the question of judaism or islam is a far more important one field advantage of stuff. a lot of many people warned us that it wouldn't work and they'll end up deciding on neither of them or they'll take one over the other in our daily lives, we have no problem saying everyone follows their own religion and then we experience other things together. and it's even nicer for us. it reaches our lives since the homeless terrorist attacks on israel of october 7th, 2023, and the subsequent military escalation in the middle east. the couple have been more focused on peace than ever and is to get, i think, in the aftermath of the gods of war, even if it looks as if jews and muslims can only be enemies. that's just not true.

if can, of course, every community is made up of very different people and it's these nuances that we try to find and pull, and that's a scene then. now the couple has turned their column into a book. at readings around germany, they discovered how curious many people are about their lives together and about their perspective on the middle east conflict. the ones stacked else that's also encouraging is that working together just feels very good for us and it's well received to both of these aspects, motivate us over and over, along with our private circumstances and our families. so many new things have taken shape data and the sofa noise and stuff stop under cima and marin mental intend to carry on devoting their efforts towards greater dialogue and understanding between jews and muslims, but professionally and privately. italian cuisine is popular all over the world. but one man is challenging. it's providence saying that

many a time recipes aren't that old, or aren't even a tying writer and historian, alberto grandy is making bold claims that are ruffling feathers at home and abroad . this man is turning every thing we thought we knew about italian cuisine on this head. you seem to the video this within the major italian tourist cities like florence or roman venice. it seems to me, some, damming, the tourists has become a national for the board and police to feed them any old garbage and claim. it's fine italian cuisine. you know, there's no reason to say italians cook any better than the french germans or austrian, steve and t, z o. and you'll see you see how they're told brandy as an associate professor of economic history at the university of parma. in his books, he claims that pizza has been a thing in italy only since the 1950s through parmesan cheese comes from wisconsin and that italian grandma's camp cook. what truth is there to his claims to help

make sense of it? we turn to modeling a facade, the editor in chief of black regina talia, and she's advocating for a tally and present to be included on unit goes list of intangible cultural heritage. of course, we also talked to ordinary italians theory number one. neapolitan pizza isn't from italy. that'd be a 2nd to go to the pizza we today, and the apollo some pizza is more american than it is a tally. you want me to kind of case that again. excuse me. pizza is the quintessential italian dish. everyone knows it and loves it. in fact, pizza was founded as far back as the 18th century in naples. sure, it looked a bit different back then. pizza was an inexpensive meal for naples, poor lower class bred topped with whatever was left over at home. the pizza, because he didn't have a need for the great emigration of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and over

the pizza, eden to naples was a very basic product anymore. so they would have disappeared from our quizzing. okay, anita paul attends themselves, despise that stuff. on the quote, i mean like all the rest of these pizza has certainly evolved and changed. of course, that doesn't mean it doesn't have an or janelle can. it's the birthplace of keep them in naples, not theory. number 2, until the 1980s olive oil was only used as liam fuel. today, italians consume per capita up to 13 leaders of olive oil a year. but is that a new thing? that's almost like get the olive oil was never part of the famous mediterranean diet for cooking. they used pork fat instead come again, even in the 19th century travelers raved about the taste of italian oils. let me take a quick while there were certainly people producing high quality olive oil and the kinds that the vast majority of italians knew was a very poor quality. okay,

was scarce and there wasn't much of it, it was expensive and it was used for everything. but cooking theory number 4, the only true parmesan cheese comes from wisconsin if at any time or john orig, yano is in essence of tying and cheese that originated in the middle ages period. that's true, but it's changed significantly over the centuries. the original parmesan was softer, its texture firmer. not until after world war 2 did tell you and parmesan, evolved into the crumbling hard cheese. we know today in wisconsin though it still made like it was 100 years ago, the splendid so was able to taste on the parmesan. our grandparents knew we have to go to milwaukee, not karma, a 1000 year old cheese is just awful though. theory number 5, italian grandmothers can't cook nicholas, so not only do the grandmothers of this country know how to cook their,

the heart of a time cruising, nothing like that. yeah, italian grandmothers didn't even know how to cook or rather they could maybe cook 3 dishes like everyone else in the world coming to the holiday dishes. tortellini was on it as that sort of thing like that. the rest was just making do with what little they have to run jazz equal football. okay. taylor and does it tell you in culinary tradition truly about protection and i'm changing recipes. taking the most you like the whole world knows italian cuisine. i don't think it's just 100 years old or 50, or 10 years old and the yeah, these dishes have been handed down from great grandfather to grandfather, to the children. and so on these down through the generation equals engine at a see only because the corner of my work is really to show that traditions are invented and above all that they can change. so that's essentially what it's all about. it. i mean though, from that i thought that i know, of course, that we dress differently a 1000 years ago and lived differently and had different ingredients. that doesn't

mean we should deny that we were who were. yeah, that could be when they got a kid, obama know. yeah, i think a lot of love goes into preparing food in italy to meet the for them. and whether it's $400.00 or 40 years old. italian cuisine is ultimately more than just the sum of its ingredients. even it's harshest. critics can't resist it. any fashion designer knows that if your collection makes it onto the runways of paris, you've made it to the top. and that's been the case for german designer marie christina stats. we caught up with her in paris to see which designs launched her career with a low key, minimalistic look. fashion designer, mazda you. christina stats hasn't only conquered the streets of paris over the past decade. her elegant collections have also found a growing international fanbase. most people might be unaware that the creator behind the french label is actually german, but the name gives away another part of her identity. go share is french for left

handed. spending centers in i'm left handed and it's not the nickname was actually given to me by a teacher of the powers fashion school order. because i worked with my left hand hand um i just have a one for me, but to me it has the deep meaning of going against the grain and doing your own thing. that is definitely not have a sense. it's something personal. the gap has ruined it. is for cynthia mcconick change certain things about how we came into the world. well, how we look and see things. and that's why i chose the name for my brand, for the new markets. and that's my view. christina founded her label in paris in 2013. at that point she had already worked for luxury brands like diane, fun furstenberg. nowadays, she exhibits her collections twice a year at the parents present portez shows. this is gabby, what you have may have. i think that took some coverage, that's when i look back,

i sometimes think i was a bit naive, but i didn't start out with a huge collection to begin with. i only had a few homes. so in pieces. then i got my 1st fashion week show and bought my shape, bought some pieces. so i thought i'll just keep going. i took at her studio and central paris. she employs between 12 and 15 people. she has a lot of responsibility as both a fashion designer and ceo. this is miss remove. there's some point. it's not just about session anymore, but also a business, a company that you are running. and then you start asking yourself very different questions and things which one are collect sealants and then you don't just think about one collection but also about your team, about sales. and about digitalization. did you tell the vehicle? christina was only 20 when she left germany. but the designer now in her early forties still feels a connection to her roots and even think some german components can be seen in her

collection. i think it's a certain straightness, a kind of structure. many of my piece is a very clean and minimal even with that isn't fair. as many my per discrete luxury garments without big flashy logo is, are now sold all over europe, north america and asia. but from of the christina there is no stereotypical go share customer data in the adam wise. i think they do have something in common in that they are looking for a certain tailoring that may be looking for things that they can weigh both day and evening and of the app. and i also work with mens with fabrics creating different shapes in volume room and it's unique fashion made with fine fabrics like this top for example set and it has an open box. and this pot can either hang down like this if you switch to that and for hanging order or kind of

you can sort of fold it up and sling ahead of your shoulders the whole class and wonder about in short on time. notice so, so then it becomes a kind of double top and drop it in the show. the model only was over one shoulder, allowing it to full of it when worn. it looks minimalist and sophisticated at the same time, something that appeals to a lot of her customers. same. so i liked it to brenda, so timeless. i honestly loved the look from own who collections, secret, exploring theater trip to see what all of that for me. these are close for a woman who is cool and elegant. at the same time. a woman who's a bit artsy, yet refined to, i think it's up to a 100 in the office. matthew cutting the shots has gained a firm place in the international fashion seen with her under stated luxury, close the net stylish note. we come to the end of the show. be sure to subscribe or follow us on social media. as always,
