THE MOTH MAINSTAGE: DON’T LOOK BACK

The Moth is a New York City-based institution, dedicated to the art of storytelling. Moth Mainstage is their flagship event, at which five storytellers each tell their story on-stage without notes. It tours the world and, when it came to The Union Chapel, London I was asked to tell a story. I chose to tell the story of taking my father’s ashes to India and learning to become comfortable with my mixed-race heritage. Sharing that story live with an audience of 900 people was remarkably cathartic and emotional.

The Moth Radio Hour is syndicated to over 500 radio stations across the US, with over 1 million listeners a week. The podcast has over 1 million weekly downloads.

You can visit The Moth web-page about my story, with links to the podcast here.

 

WORLD NOMADS: SAUNAS OF THE BALTIC

Whilst travelling around the Baltic, on my New Iron Curtain expedition, I discovered each country in the region had a different sauna tradition, so I made a video about it for World Nomads.

Stand by for some pagan chanting, jumping in frozen lakes, and plenty of nudity.
