Das Baskenland ist anders - anders als das übrige Spanien. Mit einer besonderen Kultur, mit einer eigenen Sprache und mit sehr stolzen und selbstbewussten Menschen. Die man übrigens sehr häufig schon an ihrer Kopfbedeckung erkennt, dem Basque-Beret - der Baskenmütze. Getragen wird sie überwiegend von etwas älteren Männern, die genetisch bedingt recht früh ihre Haare verlieren und so gut wie nie einen Regenschirm bei sich haben. Und es regnet nicht selten im Baskenland, was der Region zumindest immergrüne Berge, Hügel und Täler garantiert. Es gibt zerklüftete Küsten und zahlreiche Flussmündungen, die bis an den Atlantik reichen. Das Baskenland ist deutlich rauer als das Spanien am Mittelmeer. Es gibt aber auch einiges zu entdecken und zu erleben im Baskenland. Zum Beispiel im Geopark in Zumaia. Direkt an der Steilküste erkennt man deutlich die Gesteinsschichten, die sich seit Millionen von Jahren aufeinander geschoben haben, ein beeindruckendes geologisches Erbe. Und bei einer kleinen Bootstour erfährt man dann sogar noch, wie an dieser Küste nachgewiesen wurde, dass das Massensterben der Dinosaurier, vor circa 66 Millionen Jahren, durch einen Meteoriteneinschlag in Mexiko ausgelöst wurde. Oder aber man besucht den Omako Basoa im Biosphärenreservat Urdaibai. Dort gibt es „Kunst im Wald“, rund 800 Bäume bilden ein Gesamtkunstwerk. Zu sehen sind abstrakte Figuren, skurrile Tiere oder farbenfrohe Muster, die je nach Standort und Perspektive die Gedanken und Fantasien der Betrachter freien Lauf lassen. Und dann gibt es als besondere kulturelle Errungenschaft die sogenannten Social Clubs - die Männer-Kochclubs. Egal ob in Bilbao, in San Sebastian oder in irgendeinem anderen Ort an der Küste. In Bars und Tavernen feiern Freunde und Familien, die Männer am Kochtopf, die Frauen lassen sich bedienen. Touristen sind bei diesen Events allerdings eher selten zu sehen. Kulinarisch kommt man aber trotzdem im Baskenland mit kunstvoll gestalteten Pintxos - die im übrigen Spanien Tapas heißen - und Weinen aus der Region voll auf seine Kosten.

With its unique rocks, boulders and cliffs, the Waitaki Whitestone region is set to become New Zealand's first UNESCO global geopark. After four years of work by the Waitaki Whitestone Geopark Trust, a nomination for global geopark status was accepted by UNESCO last year and it's expected to be officially rubber stamped at the end of the month. Including features such as Elephant Rocks, Te Kaihinaki Moeraki Boulders and Omarama's Clay Cliffs, the region will be recognised as an area of international geological significance. It's hoped the move will boost tourism and help protect the special heritage sites and landscapes. Kathryn is joined by the Chair of the Waitaki Whitestone Geopark Trust Helen Jansen and Geopark manager Lisa Heinz to hear more about the road to UNESCO accreditation and what it will mean for the district.

He has extensive experience in the exploration, mapping, resource inventory,  conservation and management of caves and karst, including over 25 years of experience in Southeast Asia (Laos, Thailand and Vietnam) in many of the largest, longest and deepest caves in the region. Dr. Bolger has worked with government agencies, non-government organizations, the private sector and local villagers to manage cave and karst resources for conservation and for ecotourism development.

He has also given numerous presentations on this subject to a range of audiences, from community and school groups to government officials and international conferences. These experiences have provided him with a broad knowledge about the caves, the karst landscapes and their ecosystems, and the lifestyles and cultures of the people who live in these landscapes.
