About the author:
Loretta grew up in Macau,
a once sleepy little town in the Far East.
She went to film school in Hong Kong,
but never quite found her way
to the movie world.
Instead, she spent years experimenting
in campaigns and projects which put people first.
She now walks the globe to bring about
emergent movements related to children.
Loretta is a writer of children’s stories
and a film critic.
She is at home in Macau, Hong Kong, India and Portugal, and spends her time mostly in Auroville,
and the Azores in the mid-Atlantics. 

 

From the author:
That was in May 2015, when I had the splendid fortune to tuck myself away in the fairytale abode of the snow. 

I spent most of the following two years learning Sanskrit in the Landour Language School on the tip top of Mussoorie, as the only student of the legendary principal Mr. Chittaranjan Datt. 

Everyday i walked from my paradise of a cottage in Alyndale from one end of Lal Tibba to the school on the other side of the peak, in an infinity loop carved out of the mystic Himalayan forest. 

Stories grew out of these punctuated spaces.
Most choose to stay with me in silence, the remaining words, I am putting them together here. 

~ Loretta, June 2023, Auroville, India
