The power of reading led me to writing and drove me through a fascinating journey to where I am today.

My love for books started at a very young age, from my first visit to the neighbourhood library. The library was a quiet space. Later in my teens, I worked at the main library, the first to be computerized in Canada.

The library was inspiring to see everything I could learn. It was extremely humbling. It helped me see how little I knew, and it helped me see that even if I spent my whole life just reading, I would still only know a fraction of knowledge out there.

I am a bibliophile. I love books. If you love to read as much as I do, walking into a bookstore feels exactly like walking into a candy store as a kid. The shelves are lined with the wisdom of humanity, insights that each author has spent years refining. It’s all right there at your fingertips, condensed into a format that you can curl up with. A book can change your life. So many authors have changed my life.

I am from Vancouver, Canada and have spent the last 15 years in Europe, mostly in Italy. I have lived on the shores of a lake, in the forest on a mountain, in a countryside full of corn fields and of course, within cities. It was in Europe where my facade fell apart and I was forced to connect with the truth of my own self. I spent time reading, writing and discovering new ideas and raising my vibration substantially. I became aware of the truth within this existence both spiritual and physical. I will share many of my stories of my travels, as it was during this time that I had my awakening and my calling to write.

Stories of TRUTHTELLERS are coming soon.
