A summer filled with sea, sun, solidarity – and much more – in the 5th issue of the English-language edition of Shedia, now on the streets of the city.
For the fifth consecutive year, Shedia speaks the language of Charles Dickens, William Shakespeare and Virginia Woolf. The summer edition of Greece’s only street magazine has made its seasonal debut in the streets of Athens and Thessaloniki, offering a wealth of refreshing stories and content for the country’s visitors – and of course, for Greek readers as well.
Naturally, the English edition of Shedia includes its signature Responsible Tourism Guide – a comprehensive and one-of-a-kind guide to solidarity structures, social enterprises and inclusive services in the Greek capital. It offers valuable insight and practical tools to help visitors enjoy their stay responsibly – having a wonderful time while increasing their social and reducing their environmental footprint.
With Shedia in hand, everyone becomes part of a different kind of experience. One that touches the heart of the city, meets its people, and supports those who fight for a life with dignity.
English Shedia: A bridge between languages and generations
The stories woven through this special summer edition remind us that Shedia is not just a magazine. It’s a tool for connection, education and awareness. A gift that many grandparents buy for their grandchildren — not only to help them improve their English ahead of the proficiency exams, but also to introduce them to the values of social solidarity and human dignity.
This summer, Shedia once again becomes a bridge – between languages, between generations, between different worlds. You can find the 5th issue of the English edition from Shedia vendors in Athens and Thessaloniki, or visit Shedia Home (56 Kolokotroni & Nikiou St., Athens).
So let us make our motto the words of Nikos Kazantzakis, which open this issue and welcome our readers aboard:
“Love responsibility. Say: It is I who will save the world. If it is lost, it is I who am to blame.”
