I was very fortunate to have grown up in the midst of open countryside

and endless forest, so a large portion of my early years was spent with my

sister exploring and absorbing their timeless beauty. From those precious childhood days, I developed a deep imagination and a great admiration for nature, thus finding the seasonal cycle a constant source of inspiration. This eventually led me to many years travelling and exploring the British Isles,

quite often on foot, where I was in close contact with its history, legends and folklore, along with all its curious traditions and customs. These passions have fuelled the fires of my creativity, and over the years it has taken me into many realms, past and present, in the form of art, rhyme and song.
