Not like Korea, Germany has just one northern aspect bordering the ocean. They are saying there’s a mysterious island right here, like a mirage, typically showing as an island and typically as the ocean? Let’s go see the distinctive life on Halligen, an island that’s submerged at excessive tide!
Halligen is an island that’s submerged a dozen instances a yr resulting from its low and flat terrain. Langeneß, the biggest of the ten islands off the North Sea, has been dwelling to lower than 100 folks since sailors based the village within the seventeenth century. We get a glimpse into their every day lives, serving to one another when there’s a scarcity of staff.
The mudflats are wealthy in meals, so as much as 12 million birds fly right here to breed right here yearly. Particularly, it’s a ‘chook paradise’ the place black geese cease by each spring to replenish on vitamins earlier than leaving for his or her long-distance flight to Siberia! The variety of birds is as excessive as 1000’s, and the wealthy sound of birds, as if a loudspeaker was turned on, surrounds the whole island.
As I seemed across the island, I got here throughout a singular sight! All the homes rise on a hill? Like an island inside an island, that is a man-made hill known as Warf, a singular type of housing distinctive to Halligen the place homes are constructed on high of a hill to stop the home from being submerged in water. We meet the Honke household of 4 who stay on one of many solely 18 hills remaining on the island. The one household on the island that raises their very own cattle. Since there are not any supermarkets, they must order groceries from the mainland, in order that they even make and promote their very own cheese and butter. Whereas I used to be taking good care of the cows with my household and having fun with tea time whereas sitting on the hill, I heard the sound of a tractor coming from someplace! That is Grandpa Preak, the eldest member of the Honke household who is alleged to have been to the mainland.
After giving a heat greeting, he tells company that there’s a place that the grandfather all the time reveals them after they come. It’s the household museum, the treasure trove of Langenes’s grandfather, the house of Langenes! It is full of fantastic issues you’ll be able to’t see now, so it feels such as you’re strolling right into a fairy story. Amongst them, there may be one merchandise that significantly stands out: the trimming, which was generally utilized in Korea prior to now. Along with the historical past of Langenes preserved via varied antiques, there may be additionally a college with solely three college students and a hand-crafted railway truck that crosses the ocean, Lore! We have a look into the distinctive lives of the Langenes Islanders, who take pleasure in dwelling regardless of the cruel pure surroundings.
