THE MOOD WAS UPBEAT
as our small group headed towards the Ton Pirival
pass, the beginning of our ride on the Nomad
Trail. In the lead: veteran eagle hunter Sogam
Bai, with the magnifi cent bird Karabala perched
proudly on his arm. Behind him: our Italian
horsemaster Dom Mocchi and nine mounted
ladies, eight of them British. Our mission: high
adventure in the Tien Shan ‘Celestial’ Mountains
in northern Kyrgyzstan.
Our fi rst dinner, a lavish feast prepared by
Sogam Bai’s womenfolk in the family home, laid
down a marker for the rest of the trip. “Every
time you drink, you must make a toast,” our host
insisted, the only English phrase he knew. With
vodka costing less than mineral water, there were
many toasts before we reached our billet in a
circular herdsman’s yurt. Burrowing deep in our
sleeping bags, we huddled as far away from the
white felt walls as possible, the better to preserve
body heat in the intense cold.
Shortly after daybreak we urged our horses up
the 4,040-metre pass, the gateway to an open
landscape virtually unchanged since early Silk
Route traders passed this way 2,000 years ago.

Currying favourSausage as a culinary icon? Head to Berlin to taste the best of the wurst
If you’ve never tasted one of these before, you’ll probably think a more satisfactory meal could be gotten out of biting into your own tongue. However, this über-sausage (wurst), which is usually cut into several bite-sized ringlets
and smothered in a tomato-based curry sauce, is so scrumptious that it’s become a German icon.
Although the currywurst is eagerly wolfed down on moonlit street corners and in imbiss (snack bars) all over the country, Berlin is regarded as its spiritual birthplace. Legend has it that Herta Heuwer invented its seasoned topping at her Charlottenburg sausage stall out of sheer boredom. She was experimenting with different ingredients while she was waiting for customers on a rainy day, in 1949. Ten years of satisfied clients later, she finally patented her delicious mix under the name “Chillup” (Chilli + Ketchup).
Brühwurst, Bockwurst, Dampfwurst and Bratwurst are just some of the types of sausages that are used in the archetypal currywurst, though the latter of these is not generally favoured in Berlin. The actual portion of meat is usually about 20cm long and can be ordered with skin on it (“Currywurst mit Darm”) or without skin (“Currywurst ohne Darm”). To fully appreciate it, you’ll normally also have to sink your jowls into one of its two culinary bedfellows, either a bread roll or French fries. Traditionally, the whole dish is served on a plastic plate with a plastic fork; simple and tasty.
Originally, due to their cheap price (they are still a bargain at just €1.5-2.5) and perceived lack of sophistication, currywursts were only bought by the impoverished classes. However, their delectable taste and range of varieties succeeded in having this hotdog doppelgänger win through to all of the German people’s hearts and stomachs. Today, anyone from Chancellor Angela Merkel to Franz Beckenbauer can be seen gobbling them up, though it will probably be in a swanky restaurant rather than a quaint greasy spoon.
Being the country’s best-loved fast food has given the currywurst such kudos that famous German crooner Herbert Grönemeyer immortalised it in song.
The mighty wiener even did a spicy star turn in the amusing documentary Best of the Wurst (2004), and is set to be the subject of its own Berlin museum www.currywurstmuseum.de.

SO WHO IS HUGO BOSS?The real Hugo Boss established a clothing company in Metzingen, a small town south of Stuttgart, in 1923. After going bankrupt he joined the Nazi party and business flourished when he became a supplier of uniforms to the SA and SS. Boss died in 1948 but the company survived and in 1953 began to make the suits for which it would eventually become famous.

London has long been a breeding ground for great art, literature, theatre and music. The London Design Festival, now in its sixth year, is helping the city become synonymous with cutting-edge design, too. Established and emerging designers from all over the world will
descend on the capital from 13–23 September to showcase their work and catch up with the competition.
With events scattered across town, London’s neighbourhoods each bring their own distinctive style to the festival. The upmarket Brompton Design District (www.bromptondesigndistrict.com) caters to the area’s affl uent residents with blow-the-budget one-offs and pop-up shops. Meanwhile, 100% Design (www.100percentdesign.co.uk) brings contemporary chic to the drab surroundings of Earl’s Court. In the edgy East End, the festival’s main hub is Tent London (www.tentlondon.co.uk) at the Truman Brewery.
Runway caught up with a handful of Europe’s most talented designers to fi nd out what makes them tick.
London gilt seit langem als kreativer Nährboden für Kunst, Literatur, Theater und Musik. Auch das jetzt zum sechsten Mal stattfi ndende London Design Festival hilft der Stadt, zum Synonym für modernes Design zu werden. Etablierte und kommende Designer aus aller Welt werden vom 13. bis 23. September in der britischen Hauptstadt zu Gast sein, um ihre Arbeiten zu zeigen und ein Auge auf die Konkurrenz zu werfen.
Mit stadtweit verstreuten Veranstaltungen wird jeder Londoner Bezirk seine ganz eigenen Besonderheiten in das Festival einbringen. Der edle Brompton Design District (www.bromptondesigndistrict.com) wird die wohlhabende Nachbarschaft mit Design-Ständen und Unikaten zu astronomischen Preisen versorgen. 100% Design (www.100percentdesign.co.uk) soll modernen Chic in das eintönige Stadtbild von Earl’s Court bringen. Und im Londoner East End wird das Festival seinen Dreh- und Angelpunkt mit dem Tent London (www.tentlondon.co.uk) in der Old Truman Brewery haben.

IF YOU ARE HOPING FOR PEACE AND SERENITY WHILE ADMIRING ART, ‘La Serenissima’ may actually not be the best place for you. Every two years, the art world descends on the already crowded tourist hotspot: the palazzos are packed with artists, the gondolas lled with gallerists and the alleys crammed with art lovers. As if Venice itself didn’t offer enough to gape at, for six months the Biennale adds the world’s hottest contemporary art. Each country has its own pavilion in the Giardini area of the city, and vies to show the superiority of their creative talent. The whole thing is quite overwhelming.

THE CRANBERRIESWAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE(MCA 2001) “To fulfi l our philosophy of doing it for real, this is precisely what we did. We purchased 200 bright red gym balls, each three feet in diameter, constructed a tower with a sloping pen at the top, put all the balls in the pen and, when the cameras were ready, pulled back the barrier and the balls tumbled to the ground and bounced several times in wild profusion towards and past the guy in bed. It looked fantastic!—for the 10 seconds it lasted before the balls disappeared down the beach. It took half an hour to recover the balls before putting them back in the pen at the top of the tower and doing it all again… and again… until the wonderful Hothouse crew were too shagged out to do it any more.”

Ooooh, just the thought of it makes you shiver. Huddled next to the ice-cream van while a good North Easterly wind chills your cockles may not be the first image a naturist would want. But, the cooler climes of the country haven’t extinguished the fires of the naked horde, and there are plenty of beaches, resorts and centres to visit.

Ask a Dane about Tivoli, and you’ll receive a fond smile and
tales of hours spent basking in Danish folklore. Opened
in 1843, as Tivoli & Vauxhall with a horse-drawn carousel,
a roller coaster and nightly fireworks, Tivoli has inspired
parks around the world, including California’s Disneyland.
The park’s immaculate gardens and tradition of renewing
and adding attractions is a source of Danish pride.
Besides the 23 amusement rides, Tivoli is a Danish
cultural institution filled with exclusive restaurants,
including the Chinese Pagoda that serves Cantonese.
A new ballet, Thumbelina, premieres at the Pantomime

If you’ve never read Asterix comic books, here’s a brief synopsis. It’s an historical fact that the Romans conquered all of France. All apart from a small village whose resident druid was a dab-hand at mixing up invincibility potion. And in homage to Goscinny and Uderzo’s indomitable Gauls, an entire park has sprung up in honour of Asterix, their erstwhile leader.In true comic-book style, you can ride one of Obelix’s menhirs, or even climb aboard the big man himself on one of the carousel rides. Somewhere along the line, the park owners seemed to have confused their history though—half the rides are themed on Greek myths.
Anachronisms aside, however, there is plenty to do; there are acres of scenic grounds to stroll around, a recreation Gallic village (complete with characters from the comics) and even the chance to eat wild boar.
