Mediterráneo - Thijs Borsten, Erminia Fernández Córdoba and Arturo Ramón

Can life in the Mediterranean bring you happiness? And if so, what does that happiness look like? The song 'Mediterráneo' by Joan Manuel Serrat poetically describes the colourful life on the Mediterranean coast. Argentinian-Dutch singer Erminia Fernández Córdoba has warm feelings for this song because she grew up in Alicante, Spain.

Happiness in the Mediterranean

Thijs Borsten finds nowhere more peaceful than on the Greek coast. He has spent his summers there for 35 years with his Greek-Dutch wife. At the same time, people in need risk their lives by trying their luck on the other side of the Mediterranean.

Thijs and Erminia search for artists who live or have settled on the Mediterranean coast and share their stories and music about their lives there.
