Would you dare to follow your dreams and move to the other side of the world to start a new life? On Sunday, you can watch the TV program Floortje naar het einde van de wereld (Floortje goes to the ends of the earth) on TV channel NPO 1.
In Floortje naar het einde van de wereld program maker Floortje Dessing travels to remote places across the globe. She visits people who’ve established new lives far away from it all. The program is watched by millions of people in the Netherlands, and it won a major TV prize in 2016: the Televizierring.
In 2016, Floortje traveled through war-torn Syria. One of the places she went to was the ancient city of Palmyra, or - at least – what remains of that city. What’s left of the Syria that she visited in 2008 for another TV program? We have subtitled Floortje terug naar Syrie (Floortje back to Syria) in Dutch, English and Arabic.
