Stories can indeed transcend cultures and politics, binding people together by taking them on a journey across the lands and seas. That is what The Spunky Traveller aims to do as well in our storytelling.

Watch this awesome video!

Love,

Elif Shafak: The politics of fiction | Video on TED.com: "In the end, stories move like whirling dervishes, drawing circles beyond circles. They connect all humanity, regardless of identity politics. And that is the good news. And I would like to finish with an old Sufi poem. 'Come, let us be friends for once; let us make life easy on us; let us be lovers and loved ones; the earth shall be left to no one.'"
