One of the features of Elsie Magazine is the random visit I made earlier this year to Miechow in Poland. However, that wasn't my first random trip. Three or four years ago, I made the same random choice of place to visit and ended up in a town called Belzig in the old East Germany. On the outskirts of the town was a commune called ZEGG. I spent a couple of days with the people there. Here are a few of them. I asked them to write a few words about what attracted them to to ZEGG and why they chose the lifestyle they live.
