Aegean Air buys into Lamda Development and Elliniko

Aegean Air is becoming a strategic partner in the Elliniko development with a 20-million-euro investment in Lamda Development’s share capital and an agreement to promote the project at the site of Athens’ former international airport.

Aegean will acquire Lamda shares amounting to 1.66 percent of its share capital in the upcoming increase. It has also agreed to provide its passengers with promotional material showing the features, new services, experiences and products they can enjoy as the project unfolds.

“Our objective is to share the project with Aegean passengers – the majority of whom come from cities abroad – as much as possible, and through that to support its successful evolution,” Greece’s leading carrier said in a statement. “Therefore Aegean is associating its name with the most emblematic development project in the country, the success of which constitutes a national target, especially for the growth of tourism,” it added.

Guerrilla gardeners fight hopelessness in Greece

Elliniko community garden on the outskirts of Athens is an oasis of calm just a stone's throw from the noisy urban sprawl. Neat lines of rutted earth have been prepared to grow potatoes and tomatoes. Pots of tender seedlings wait to be planted out. And there is already a luxuriant tangle of runner beans. This is just one of the "guerrilla gardens" that have been popping up all over Greece, as people struggle to feed themselves under difficult economic conditions. Desperate times Since the Greek debt crisis, and harsh austerity measures imposed on the country in response, youth unemployment has risen to around 50 percent, and homelessness is a major problem. Hunger and desperation have driven some Greeks to come up with creative ways to feed themselves and their communities. This is one urban agriculture project that has sprung up in response.

Heiss, kräftig und ‚metrios‘ - so muss er sein für mich … zubereitet im langstieligen, kupfernen Kännchen, dem Briki … langsam erhitzt und mit jenem Aroma, das mich sofort entführt, wenn ich den Elleniko hier genieße. Ich fühle den Süden und spüre das Meer. Entführe mich selbst hin zu den kleinen Tischchen, die mittendrin in den Cafés der Plaka oder entlang der Mole am Hafen stehen. Um einen Augenblick lang einzutauchen in diesen einen Moment. In dem nur der pure Genuss des Elliniko zählt. Und in dem ich gleichzeitig noch viel mehr wahrnehme. Die Wärme der Sonne auf der Haut, intensive Aromen, die das pulsierende Leben um mich herum widerspiegeln, ebenso wie das unbeschwerte Lachen der Gäste am Nebentisch … ☀️☕️☀️☕️☀️ Es sind außergewöhnliche Momente. Wunderschön und voller Energie. Sie sind die Inspiration für neue Geschichten. Und auch Schauplatz der Protagonisten im Roman „Das Hochzeitszimmer „ ☀️📕☀️ … Und Ihr so 😁? Wie trinkt Ihr Euren Kaffee ☕️ 😁? … . . . . #elleniko #genussmomente #griechenland🇬🇷❤️ #diefraudiegeschichtenschreibt #storypainting #lehmannundlehmannontour #autorenpaar #dashochzeitszimmer #schauplatzkorfu #korfu (hier: Rosenheim) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZCpDREtzm6/?utm_medium=tumblr
