"Where there is love, no evil harms. Where there is no love, no good benefits."

Do you know that fairy tales and myths were originally intended for adults, not for children, in order to navigate them psychologically and morally on their life's journey?
Namely, these universal, archetypal and timeless stories carry an essential message about fundamental human conflicts and patterns, and because of their eternal relevance, they are a valuable resource especially when we are confused, overwhelmed or lost.
Therefore, take a look at their other side of interpretation and deepen your understanding of their hidden symbolism.
Knock-knock, it's Lorena, storyteller and interpreter of myths and fairy tales (read: I "translate" their symbols, characters and motifs into everyday language). I stand behind the world of Once Upon a Time in Croatia. I'm here to help you look at the other side of myths and fairy tales and with their help you understand and accept all phases of your life, connect with folklore and ultimately find a personal definition of "being yourself".
I am naturally a researcher and dancer at heart, a lover of alternative history and culture of ancient civilizations, and I am in eternal search of new knowledge. And as a Sagittarius and a born optimist, I believe in a world of unlimited possibilities and freedom of expression.
I am being treated for a syndrome "good girls", "people pleasing", perfectionism, and eternal intellectualization and being (only) "in the head". I'm on my healing path found fairy tales, myths and folklore as true medicine for my soul and a signpost that directs me towards a life that is completein accordance with me.
Gostovanja na kulturnim događajima, manifestacijama, festivalima i konferencijama
I love visiting various cultural and artistic events where there are good vibes. There, I gladly translate my love for Slavic mythology, mythical creatures, fairy tales, archetypes and folklore into interactive creative story rooms and workshops for children and adults.
So far, I have had the honor and pleasure of attending Perunfest in 2021, 2022 and 2023, Days of Slavic Heritage, Days of Dubrava, Forest Farm, InBook in Vinkovci and the 6th Storytelling Conference in Varaždin.
The guiding thread of my guest appearances is a personalized approach to each new opportunity and the audience I will meet there.
See you at your place as a guest speaker and storyteller.
