Hi all,
So my second TV series is about to air soon on Arte in
France and Germany. It's called Wanderlust in German, or Un kilomètre à Pied in
French and it's a ten-part series looking at different regions of Europe
through their long-distance hiking trails. In the course of the hikes I meet
Cornish fishermen, Mallorcan beekeepers, French cheesemakers, Greek park
rangers and German ceramics designers, and go hiking with local guidebook
writers, environmentalists and even a German princess. I learn how to use a
traditional slingshot in Mallorca, eat wild edible plants in Cornwall and help
deliver a baby calf in Saar-Hunsruck. Now that's entertainment.
The films are broadcast on Arte from August 4th at 7.30pm.
