Storytelling Worldwide
Storytelling has been at the center of my work for more than 30 years.
Moving between continents, cultures, and social environments has shaped my way of making podcasts. Based in Europe, much of my work unfolds across the Americas, while always remaining open to stories from other parts of the world.
I focus on lived experience rather than explanation, on presence rather than distance. My work is driven by close observation and long-term engagement with the environments and communities I work in.
In my podcast, listening is an active experience – travelling acoustically through cities and landscapes, following voices and moods, discovering the unfamiliar in the familiar, and what often goes unnoticed in what we think we know.
