What is this project all about?

Who says that being 30 means being a grown-up? Let’s be honest, nobody really knows what that actually means - “grown-up”. Let’s just stop with all those generalising speculations about our generation (a generation without perspective, incapable of relationships). Instead, we are determined to create transparency with our magazine Almost 30 and embrace the diversity of our generation.

Contributors from around the world ask themselves the questions, which coMehr anzeigen

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

The collected money is used to finance the printing costs for the first issue of the magazine (the one devoted to friendship). However, we also want to lay ground for a real growing community. The Almost 30 community connects everyone who has the big 30 on their mind, no matter if the reason being is their biological age or their mindset of never really growing up. For those of you starting a family, studying for the third time, or for those, who are justMehr anzeigen

Why would you support this project?

The world really doesn’t need another lifestyle magazine. And we really don’t need another unpaid project next to our full time jobs. But Almost 30 is more than that. Its first issue is the foundation of our project, coming from the heart: a community for all those who feel almost 30 and want to go their own way together. Support us and become part of the collective!

We’re interested in your opinion, exchanging ideas and experiences. It’s not about having aMehr anzeigen

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

Once we reach our funding goal, the magazine is going to print in August 2018.
The first issue of Almost 30 will be an edition of 1000 copies. This will be the base of our growing community, reflecting the value of this project.

Why print? We believe that the very personal and timeless pieces by our authors, illustrators and photographers deserve to be printed on high quality paper in a nice layout.

Almost 30 Magazine will be published in September 2018. ItMehr anzeigen

Who are the people behind the project?

Behind Almost 30 is an international collective of friends. Some of them are the authors, photographers and designers featured in the magazine. And then there’s Hannah, Marie, Hannah Rosi, Thais, Karina and Katharina – they’re the editorial team of Almost 30. They bring in their ideas, engagement and endless willpower so that every article and every image finds the perfect place within the magazine.

We also want to thank two special contributors at this poMehr anzeigen
