About Dora

Well, the answer depends on at what stage of my life you ask the question.

As a schoolgirl, I was a nice but grey mouse, always trying to please everyone, however, that "everyone" didn't cover myself.

Then, in my twenties, I started touring Europe: Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and then France.

God probably had a plan for me to live in France, because it was a Frenchman who told me first that I didn't have to be ashamed if I wanted to be more, or to discover the artist in me.

After that, I wasn't even surprised when I found myself about to marry another French man.

But life did not turn out as I had planned.  

In the isolation of a small French town, I was finally forced to face the same question: who am I?

Why was I there? And why was I not happy?

They say that pain cleanses. It strips away the waste and leaves nothing but the crystal clear truth. This is what happened to me. I realized what is really valuable in life and now I fight for those precious things every day. And what are these things? Well, the sound of morning dew on a blade of grass as it echoes my child's laughter. The sunlight streaming through the yellow leaves as my dog plays with them. That's me. Dodo -as my son calls me- right down the line.
