utch entrepreneur Bert van Son knows
all about the fashion industry – and the
devastating impact it has on the world.
“I worked in fashion for more than 30
years,” he says. “I saw it change from
something beautiful to a throwaway business. After
taking a sabbatical, I realised it was a rotten industry
that we had to change. So, I decided to use the
money, experience and network I had to create a new
company to do it better.”
The fashion veteran was onto something. According
to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe
(UNECE), the fast-fashion industry is responsible for
4% of global waste production, 20% of the world’s
water pollution, and 1.2 billion tons of greenhouse gases
annually. One of the worst offenders? Jeans. Not only
are they one of the most-produced fashion items, but
they're also one of the most polluting.
MUD Jeans was born in 2012 and quickly hit
international headlines with its innovative ‘jeans

of jeans for a small monthly fee and then return them

Living a long, healthy life in

Ingredients
250g plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
30ml olive oil
1/2 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
125ml lukewarm water
4 large courgettes
1 handful of parsley, mint and dill
250g crumbled feta
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Method
First the pastry. Place the flour and
salt in a bowl. Make a well in the

vinegar. Start mixing, adding water
until it resembles a soft dough.
Knead lightly on a floured surface
until it is smooth. Cover with a tea

Keep on moving
We all know exercise is crucial for long-
term health, but huffing and puffing in a
windowless air-conditioned gym? Not so
much. Moving intuitively, and regularly, is
the key. “[In Ikaria] they move naturally,
perhaps by walking to work or the local
café, or working in the garden,” says Meni.
Fishing, goat-herding and tending to the
land are all an essential way of life dating
back generations on this island.

Keep company with happy, caring
people and you’ll be happy and
caring too. It’s a no-brainer, right?
In Ikaria locals are surrounded by
family from the moment they gasp
their first breath, right up until they
take their last. And family here
doesn’t just mean your kin – the
sense of community is incredibly
strong and everyone looks out for
each other. “People driving along
the road stop if they see someone
they know, wind down the window
and ask how the family is,” says
Meni. “There is a genuine concern
for the welfare of others. People
put their family first: they invest in
their children with time and love,
and children care for their elders.”

Until recently, the guides here had all
sorts of tricks up their sleeves for evading
crowds of a very different nature. Luxor is

days you’d have to set a pre-dawn alarm,

smaller, less-popular ones. On others it
meant paying four-figure sums to visit a site

Now, all that seems ridiculous. It’s late
spring and I find myself all but alone at the

I
experienced my first supper club
in the UAE in 2014. A well-timed
recommendation on social media
led to a cancelled dinner reservation
and the eager pursuit of a rare dining
opportunity in the desert somewhere
between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The dinner
was hosted by Ursula, a German expat
who’d lived in the UAE for 17 years. Known
as ‘the camel whisperer’ she reared camels
for a living and on occasion cooked Arabian
feasts for strangers.
Finding her wasn’t easy. A small group
met at a petrol station on the edge of
Dubai. We’d been sent grid coordinates
via text message and after a two-hour
stop-start journey we reached a candle-lit
Bedouin tent surrounded by silky ochre-
coloured sand dunes.
Ursula greeted us with plates of spicy
camel meat burgers, and nearby a whole
lamb was slow-cooking in a traditional
underground oven. The heady aromas smelt
incredible, and instantly I knew I’d struck
gold with this special dinner.
Back then, supper clubs were still a
novelty in the UAE. But while Ursula cooked

A THM 375.000 Ft-ra és 12 hónap futamidőre került meghatározásra.
Jelen tájékoztatás nem teljes körű, és nem minősül ajánlattételnek. A 10 000 pontot a Bank a 2021.07.01. és 2021.12.31. között újonnan igényelt és jóváhagyott Wizz Air Hitelkártya
főkártya igénylések esetén biztosítja, abban az esetben, ha a főkártyabirtokos a Hitelkártya igénylőlapon mobil telefonszámot és e-mail címet ad meg, annak érdekében, hogy
az Erste Bank ezen megadott elérhetőségekre, termékeire és szolgáltatásaira vonatkozóan megkeresse telefonon, SMS-ben, e-mailen, internetbanki és mobilalkalmazási

belül. Ezen időszak alatt a vásárlási tranzakciónak könyvelésre kell kerülnie. A Wizz Air Hitelkártya főkártya elsőként küldött kártyakísérő levelének dátuma minősül a Wizz Air
Hitelkártya jóváhagyásának. Amennyiben az akció keretében igényelt Wizz Air Hitelkártyát a Főkártyabirtokos annak kibocsátásától számított 12 hónapon belül megszünteti,
a Bank jogosult a 10 000 pont megvonására akként, hogy 10 000 forinttal a Főkártyabirtokos hitelszámláját megterheli. Üdvözlő pontok jóváírása – az előzőekben szereplő
feltétel teljesítése esetén a vásárlási tranzakció könyvelését követő három héten belül kerül sor. Társkártya igénylése esetén a Bank nem biztosít Üdvözlő pontokat. Az Üdvözlő
pontokra vonatkozó kiegészítő rendelkezéseket – a hitelkártya számla megszüntetése esetére – a Wizz Air Kártyák Pontgyűjtő Feltételei tartalmazzák. A részletes kondíciókat
