“Brutal, Offensive, Pure, True”: Welcome To Vevčani Festival

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mardi 12 mai 2026 • Durée 17:47

I went to Vevčani festival in rural North Macedonia. It is perhaps the wildest village festival in the Balkans.

Every Orthodox Christian New Year period villagers get dressed up as pagan characters, monsters or political figures, drink large amounts of rakia, then perform rituals and parade around the village.

It’s supposed to be an expression of independent spirit and free speech, but some think that the more extreme costumes are beyond the pale.

Bagpipes In The Mountains: Gaida (And Guns) In Bulgaria

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

mardi 28 avril 2026 • Durée 14:50

Some bagpipes styles are intensely annoying, but Bulgaria’s kaba gaida style is low in tone, moody, spacey, almost gothic, and linked to rural life in the country for thousands of years.

Now new generations of Bulgarian bagpipers head deep into the Rhodope Mountains each year for a bagpipe festival and competition.

It’s part of a resurgence in folk arts in Bulgaria. Among the younger generations are bagpipes even… cool? I went to the Gela bagpipe festival.

A Sloth’s Journey: Building Bridges In Costa Rica

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

mardi 14 avril 2026 • Durée 17:52

Costa Rica has positioned itself as a successful eco-tourism destination, and tourists cascade into the country with ambitions to see sloths in the wild.

As more tourist infrastructure gets built, more of the famously lethargic-looking animals are getting injured and killed due to the development. Sloths are susceptible to species isolation caused by new roads and buildings cutting off treetop pathways.

A group of conservationists is taking action by shimmying up massive trees and putting up rope bridges for the sloths. I joined the team on a bridge-building mission.

The Bulls Of San José: Costa Rica’s Amateur Bullfighters

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

mardi 31 mars 2026 • Durée 17:09

Every year around Christmas, massive bulls and “Improvisers” descend on bullrings around San José, Costa Rica’s capital city. The Improvisers are members of the public who get drunk, put on fluorescent t-shirts, leap into the ring then chase and annoy the bulls.

Bullfighting was brought to Costa Rica by Spanish colonisers and is still hugely popular in the small Central American country. Bullfighters there don’t kill the bulls, but animal rights protesters still sometimes stage protests against the events.

I spent Christmas with the amateur bull-botherers of San José, and some of the people determined to end their booze-fuelled fun.

The Mayan Train: Mexico’s Controversial Tren Maya

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 17 mars 2026 • Durée 23:38

Mexico’s Tren Maya takes tourists around the Yucatán Peninsula, to cities, ancient Mayan ruins and jungle towns. It has displaced Indigenous locals, destroyed sacred sites and caused environmental carnage.

Mexican authorities have touted the Tren Maya as offering a Mayan adventure and providing jobs and transport for poor locals. I spent a month traveling around the railway route to see how the massive project has affected life near the tracks.

The Copper Canyon Train: Mexico’s Chepe Express

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 3 mars 2026 • Durée 24:23

Northwest Mexico’s Chepe train route is one of the wildest, most ruggedly-beautiful railway journeys in the world.

Starting in Chihuahua city and ending 418 miles later in Los Mochis, the train cuts through vast canyons, known collectively as the Copper Canyon, and stops at remote outposts.

Much of the region is home to the Indigenous Tarahumara people, many of whom are semi-nomadic and have an uneasy relationship with tourists and Hispanic locals following historic mistreatment by colonisers.

I spent 11 days on the Chepe train route, getting off at all the stops to explore the Copper Canyon.

The Tequila Express: Mexico’s Booziest Train

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

mardi 17 février 2026 • Durée 18:23

The Tequila Express train runs from Guadalajara city to the town of Tequila in Mexico’s Jalisco state, and is loaded with bars and booze. The train spent nine years off the tracks, but recently returned.

You might expect alcohol-fuelled carnage on the train, but the Tequila Express offers a rather civilised insight into the culture and legends behind Mexico’s famous fiery spirit.

I boarded the train for a teetotal trip.

Hell Becoming Paradise: Islas Marias, Mexico’s Prison Island

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mardi 3 février 2026 • Durée 17:45

In 2019 the last prison island in the Americas closed down. Islas Marías was home to some of Mexico’s most feared criminals, and political prisoners, but was shuttered following reports of terrible conditions.

In 2022 Mexico’s navy began allowing tourists to visit the archipelago, showing visitors cells, parrots, graveyards, beaches, and explaining the islands’ dark past.

I took a long ferry ride for a weekend on Islas Marías.

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mardi 20 janvier 2026 • Durée 14:16

Fuego Volcano in Guatemala is one of the most active volcanos in Central America, sometimes erupting multiple times an hour.

The eruptions have proved deadly for people living in the shadow of the volcano, but hiking Fuego has become popular with adventurous tourists. Locals have signed up serve them as volcano guides, risking their lives for better income.

I joined an overnight hike on Fuego, when the volcano was at its most active.

The Dance Of The Little Devils: Boruca’s Mask Rituals

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

mardi 6 janvier 2026 • Durée 17:44

Every new year in Boruca, a remote Costa Rican village, Indigenous villagers wear garish masks and bull costumes for rituals commemorating their ancestors’ battle against Spanish colonisers.

Today Indigenous Borucan culture is still under threat, and over time the rituals have come to represent Borucans’ modern independent spirit.

I travelled to Boruca to witness Danza de los Diablitos: the Dance of the Little Devils.
