Honeymooners and luxury holidaymakers pay up to €1,000 a night - that's how much a waiter or porter makes per month. It is grueling work, carried out in the searing heat of the beautiful town of Oia. But hopes for a better future make the seasonal workers there ready to put up with a lot.

Originally intended to enable the transportation of supplies to Alaska in the event of a Japanese invasion, the highway takes in swamps and mountains along its 2,400-kilometer route. Today the highway is a popular route for tourists and truckers.

There appears to be no end in sight to this ruthless overexploitation. The quality of Madagascar’s sapphires is unparalleled, and only Brazil has comparable resources.

In many places, light pollution means that people can no longer see the stars at night. It’s a hindrance to scientific and astronomical research, and a profound cultural loss. Many people will never know what it means to gaze at a starry sky. In Europe, Spain is one of the best places for star-gazing. In parts of the country, the night sky has become a huge draw for astronomers and tourists alike.

According to one United Nation’s estimate, 1.5 million people have already fled Venezuela in hopes of escaping violence, poverty and hunger. Despite possessing some of world’s largest oil reserves, corruption and cronyism have plunged the country into economic ruin. Much of the blame lies with former socialist president Hugo Chavez and his successor Nicolás Maduro.

Following years in isolation, Iran has reentered the international stage - which for some is cause for alarm. Tehran is now engaging in dialogue and has agreed to curb its nuclear program. But it is also involved in wars in Syria and Yemen - running the risk of upsetting the sensibilities of old enemies such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and the US. Donald Trump has now ditched the Iran nuclear deal.
