On the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, we are sharing more useful resources, magazines and initiatives that uplift Palestinian voices below!
We are also happy to feature another amazing fellow zine: Wild Greens Magazine, a monthly online mixed-media magazine (founded in Philadelphia in 2020) that publishes art, handcrafts, poetry, essays, short fiction, music, and more.
Their editor-in-chief Rebecca gladly answered a few questions for us.

We realized in the past weeks the values we stand for would be empty if we remained silent, so we made clear we stand with the Palestinian people. We join calls not only for an immediate ceasefire, but an end to the occupation and apartheid system in place.
Always but especially in times like these, we need to educate ourselves and use our voices. So, we share some of the resources below, and invite you to find and add more. Finally, we wish for all of us to keep some glimmer of hope in our humanity by speaking up and coming together. Let this be a reminder to inform ourselves of the peoples’ struggles all over the world and stand in solidarity for freedom and dignity for all.

Below are a few questions to inspire you.
Read More »An immense thank you to every single artist who trusted us with their work in the first year of our existence, as well as every single reader and follower ❤
Yes, today marks exactly one year since we launched this project and what a ride it has been!
Read More »Is your vacation mode on yet? We are soon going to take some time off, so we only have simple questions for you this month, before getting more serious in autumn. We are no less curious, though. Send us all sorts of recommendations or anything that keeps inspiring you. (Invitation always open.) 🙂
Read More »Summer is here. With it, our daydreams about holidays and planning the next adventures came back flying, too. (Ok, there are always there somewhere, but now the guilt is gone.)
To keep us dreaming, we invite you to send us your travelogues in form of writing or visual art or basically anything, inspired by your greatest (or not) adventures! 🙂
Let’s keep exploring this amazing planet, responsibly!
Read More »Have you been at a loss of inspiration lately? Whatever our answer at some precise moment is, we are always looking for some more. So, we want to take our mission to keep wonder alive and kicking even further by starting a series of monthly recommendations.
To start it off, some more or less random finds which resonate like crazy with our own manifesto. So, if you are still not sure what we are doing and why, click on below.
Read More »We don’t have specific issues with specific themes… We had a hard time with challenges and their deadlines… But, we still wanted to give our (potential) contributors a better feeling of what we are most interested in!
So, we decided to start a series of occasional writing (and art) prompts.
These will be completely non-binding and are only here to help inspire you and to keep us more concentrated on our mission 🙂
Feel free to join any time by sending us your thoughts, words and art!
The first introductory prompt is simple. Or is it? 😉
Read More »Isn’t it like in that old cliché which supposedly says beauty (and perfection) is in the imperfections?
When we asked you on Instagram what is your one-word description of a good day, the words that came up were: serene, reading, adventure, creative, contentment, relaxing, nature, productive… So many different definitions that (we are sure) change daily for each of us.
So, we started thinking about another question that can help your inspiration: what is the one tiny or grand perfection you can find on a normal day, that one joyous kick or spur of motivation, a moment after a hard day that makes you accept the bitter-sweetness and makes you feel like life is alright after all, that might fill you up with sense and meaning or just peace?
Maybe, a perfect day is compiled of moments of being that ground us, reconnect us to ourselves and our humanity. Maybe, just one such moment is enough.
We would love to hear what it all means to you! Send us your submissions for our monthly challenge till next Friday 😉
(Yes, you only have a week left.)
P. S.: We might also accept ironic interpretations of the phrase perfect day. Try us. Those can be the greatest lessons.
