My Storytelling Journey
Antje Mahintorabi
"Stories are my life. They let me grow and experience, they teach and change me, they let me forget, they let me remember, and finally, they give me hope.
I saw the light of day in the shadows of the Berlin Wall. I spent my childhood wondering what was behind that massive pile of concrete separating my little East German hometown from the glorious West. And then it happened - only one year after I had turned 18 the wall tumbled to the ground.

Elinor Benjamin: New Scotland welcomes Old Scotland –
Jess Smith and Séoras Macpherson visit
Was it really May 30, 2018 when I replied to a request from the Toronto Storytelling Festival to support their grant application to bring Scottish storytellers Jess Smith and Séoras Macpherson to Canada, by guaranteeing storytelling venues beyond Toronto? Going with my gut, I replied with a rash promise of serious funding from my own pocket for honoraria and the letter of support they needed immediately.
