  • Na ceste po Addu
With Jiri Bartoska and Miroslav Donutil to the Maldivian atoll, where each palm tree has its owner and to whose shores mantas sail for purification. Addu is the southernmost Maldives atoll, the only one lying along the equator. This is where the Islamization of the islands began, and the later strong British presence provided the locals with a quality education. As a result, they now occupy important places throughout the island nation. As in the whole of the Maldives, Addu emphasizes ecology and a gentle approach to the ocean. They must not be built from sea corals and tuna are caught only with rods; networks are taboo. Tough rules also apply to the operation of tourist resorts. The obligation is our own treatment plant, water production and complete recycling of all waste, including exports for processing to India. There is a shortage of trees in the Maldives and palm trees have a special status. Each has its owner and identification number. They used to be used to build ships, but today timber from Malaysia is imported for construction. Or, for example, laminate is used. Today, tourism is also reviving traditional professions, such as the production of palm-leaf roofs. Palm trees strengthen the mainland, which is a must in the case of atolls. But even that does not solve the future of the Maldives. The country's highest point is just two meters above sea level, so any climate change could have a fatal impact on the island's future.

Na ceste po Gobi
With Jiri Bartoska and Miroslav Donutil for Olga Chorchoj, desert man Almaz, kumiza tasting and dinosaur eggs. The Gobi Desert is mostly a dry semi-grassy steppe. The desert lies at the foot of the Altai Mountains at an altitude of 1500 meters above sea level. In 1975, the Great Gobi Reserve was declared here, which became the fourth largest nature reserve in the world. It is the northernmost place in the world where you can meet camels, but also white leopards, gazelles and sheep. In the middle of the desert is the town of Dalandzadgad, but you can find nomads with their yurts practically all over the Gobi. They drown with dried dung, make sheep's cheese, drink fermented mare's milk kumis in the evenings, and tell the story of the mythical Olga Chorchoj or the desert man Almaz.

In addition to the wild landscape, the Scottish archipelago attracts with its megalithic past. The view of the ring of more than five meters of stones is as breathtaking as the ancient settlement of Skara Brae, which was discovered only by chance after a large storm tore down part of the coast. The islands have a pleasant atmosphere, created mainly by romantic fishing villages and flocks of sheep grazing on the green hills. However, there is also a special breed that feeds only on seaweed. Orkney have one worldwide primacy. There is the shortest scheduled air connection between the islands in the world. The pilot doesn't even have time to take off properly and in two minutes he is landing .

Na ceste po Nairobi
With Jiri Bartoska and Miroslav Donutil on a safari with the backdrop of the big city, in slums and beautiful colonial villas and on the Maasai market, where shoes are made from used tires. Originally a railway station in the middle of nowhere and a tent camp, which in one century has become one of the most important African capitals. The foundations of the Kenyan capital date back to the end of the 19th century, when a railway depot was established next to a nearby stream. The Maasai creek was called Uaso Nairobi (cold water), hence the name today. Today, the museum is famous for its famous railway times, where the train that Meryl Streep arrived in Nairobi in the feature film Memories of Africa is on display. The current appearance of the city includes gigantic slums, a dump controlled by drug gangs and beautiful colonial villas. The Bata company opened a factory here in the 1930s, but the cheapest shoes are made from used tires and bought on the markets. Nairobi is a city of countless social problems such as overpopulation, crime and a bad environment, yet there are many indications that it may one day become the modern center of the African continent.

Na ceste po severním Laosu
The country, as if trapped between Vietnam and Thailand, has endured all regional horrors throughout history, including those that did not concern it at all. Did you know that Laos was the most bombed country on the planet? Perhaps that is why only here you can visit the market, which offers items made from American air bombs and bombs. In the north of the country, however, there is also one of the greatest mysteries of Southeast Asia - a plain dotted with dozens of gigantic pitchers. Archaeologists from all over the world just shrug their shoulders helplessly. Nothing is still known about their creators and meaning. On the other hand, it is known that the most popular brand of local beer was founded by a Czech brewer.

The land of millions of elephants - so many travelers call "the last peaceful land on our planet".

Accompanied by the lazily flowing Mekong, we head to the ancient Pakse Mall. Next we will go to the moss-covered boulders of the mysterious Wat Phu Champasak temple and arrive at the enchanting islands of Si Phan Don. We will enjoy excellent coffee and tea on the mystical plateau Bolaven. We will visit a village wedding, play football with a rattan ball and spend the night in jungle houses. The travels of travel will then be redeemed by a view of one of the most breathtaking waterfalls in the world.
