edit data

Talia worked as an editor in television, film, and advertising for more than 15 years before she decided to switch gears and focus on her favourite part of storytelling: writing.
After receiving a teaching degree in creative writing and growing into an experienced Tour Guide, she found the space she needed to write.

When she’s not hosting storytelling workshops, or taking tourists on historic trails through Amsterdam, she is creating her own stories.
This short collection of fictional tales, all based in and around Amsterdam, is a logical outcome of her creative adventures and will hopefully lead to many more.
