About the host / author:
Dora Tsang is a writer, artist and nature guide who lives in the deep bright woods in Limousin, France, with a friendly French boar and a three-legged cat. She writes books about the trials and triumphs of life, as well as quirkily humorous stories for young children. Her creative versatility is demonstrated by her publications: From Alpha to Alpha - a lyrical art book about her 1800-km peregrination, Blue2 - a verse novel for young adults and Much Hairdo about Nothing - a picture book for children. When not writing, Dora can be found in the woods looking for her wandering cat, and illustrating her own life odyssey at home.
