Resuming work for Volume 2 — The Athens Issue. 🤍

Athens Issue for Volume 2:

Athens is a captivating city, that is both in equal parts fantastically ancient and modern, and a lot in between. Greece's capital boasts thousands of years of history, that is still an integral part of the city. However, Athens is more than the ever-present Acropolis, overlooking the city, or the Parthenon or all the ancient sites scattered throughout the city.

For Volume 2, I spent two weeks in Athens. These were feverish days in Athen's summer heat, as I was wandering its cobbled streets, exploring its corners and different neighbourhoods, some orange trees lined, others with graffiti or cats dozing off in the summer sun. For days, I was sampling Athens various foods, learned about its multi-cultural background and captured its unique atmosphere.

And above all: I met so many inspiring Athenians who so kindly shared their experiences with me.

I will be sharing more on VOLUME 2 - THE ATHENS ISSUE in the upcoming time on Instagram , so please join us there on this new journey as we get to know Athens through the eyes of Athenians.

Until very soon,
Katharina

VOLUME 1 — The Berlin Issue

26/10/2022

Hello, we are CONTU. Founded in late summer 2021 and born out of the wish to create a city publication, I have set up a small publishing company. CONTU shows and portrays a city through their people. We get to know inspiring locals, explore topics and questions that are raised. The first and inaugural issue of CONTU was hence published in August 2021, independently and locally. VOLUME 1 — The Berlin Issue looks at Berlin. We are CONTU, a city publication with an altering city focus, giving candid insights, sharing genuine recommendations and celebrating slow travel journalism. Thank you for being here! — Katharina/ The founder
