Ms Neda at Scotland Story Festival

I had a change of attending the International Story Festival under the subject of ‘A trip once upon a time’. Trips inspire new stories and new stories inspire new trips. It’s true for both culture and countries as well as our inner journey.

This year’s festival was useful for us to see explorers, saints, local people and shamans from their point of view.

While we were visiting ’Scottish National Museum’, I witnessed many different stories. When it was dark, I went to the kitchenette of Scottish Story Place. While it was getting dark, I joined the story tellers and the musicians. It was the best atmosphere for the story tellers.

I participated in the activity, by Jess Smith, which was called ‘influenced’ at Scotland Modern Art Gallery. I listened to supernatural stories.

I was very impressed and I came back with the belief of inspiring the children.
