Due to the currently drastically deteriorating pandemic situation, this time we landed a big throw and shipped three pallets at once! But read for yourself, what our member and CFP („Chief of the food pallets“) Sandra A. wrote to this in the forums, in which we are represented: „And today there are once again pleasing […]
October 12th, 2020 Still, the pandemic is a great issue. But we still planned to look after „our Andros cats“ in autumn, to prepare them for the next winter. This time, Jörg is traveling, again as a „one-man-show“, as he did also last October. Still exciting to the end…travel preparations…changed schedule of the ferries…negative corona […]
August 16th, 2020 Not long ago, Jörg visited Andros and now Lavinia and companion are already on their way to the island. Also a consequence of the pandemic, because the date in August was planned already and traveling before July wasn’t possible. And there is always something to do! At the intermediate stop in Athens, […]
PROLOG The journey in July was influenced by the Corona pandemic, which was not foreseeable during the planning process. As the organization started already in January, a long time it even was not sure, if it could go ahead as planned. Before starting with the travel report, let’s see how the big world affairs affected […]

How long it will take before the shipping company delivers it on the island is uncertain. But […]
Author: Dr Marianne Taatz-Jacobi Today it is the first anniversary of Marie’s death. We feel sad and reflective. We remember exactly how we have been racked by the news the next day. It felt unreal. Why would a young woman such as Marie was die so suddenly from one minute to another? There is still […]
February 14 & 15, 2020 It’s mid-February and it’s time to check if everything´s alright on Andros. This time Lavinia sets off again with her companions.

On February 12 the twelfth food pallet reached Andros today. The pallet had already started on January 23 and reached Athens pretty quickly.
