    Marion spent many hours in the evening as a child sitting on the lap of her mother reading stories. When she encountered the Art of Storytelling in 2013 it was evident.

As her craft grew she traveled to many places telling stories until she landed in the northern part of Italy where she settled. Today, Marion is creating her own events where she tells stories as well as goes to schools to enchant the imagination of the children. She also weaves Storytelling and Dance, her other passion.
