“Wonne” is a great yet rarely used word in German. It translates to “bliss“” and goes well with the month of May – we call it “Wonnemonat Mai”. “Wonne” is also the title of the current issue of “Balkon & Garten“, a tiny nature magazine made in Berlin by Anke Wulffen. I like this small scale mag because it is very modest in a good way (only 150 copies printed!). Its content is user-generated and the order of its pages are randomly selected. Flip through the zine and you’ll find photos, stories, poems and drawings; varying between childish and funny to arty but are all rooted to experiences with nature. I came across this little mag at the Voo Store. The next issue will be themed around “Schauer” (shower); deadline for contributions is June 1st!
