Some say that water is alive, that it feels, that it desires, that it suffers. Some say that other beings live beneath the water, somewhat like us, but different.

Water is the common thread running through all these stories. Stories that, in some cases, come from faraway lands, and in others, from right next door. But as we listen to them, we will witness the storm, desire, hunger, and life itself, which, like the river, flows on, never ceasing.

Helena Cuesta

I love to travel, and I'm not quite sure if the stories travel with me or if I travel with them. Either way, I've always found it very easy to close my eyes and appear on the other side of the planet.

I studied art history and medieval history at the University of Valladolid. I work as a storyteller, museum educator, and official tour guide in Catalonia. I've performed in libraries, storytelling festivals, bars, museums, prisons, and even convents. I've also collected traditional tales, stories, and legends. And I've found that stories explain us and unite us. They are an essential part of being human.
