:
Magda was born in London but has spent most of her life in Africa. She developed a love for art and architecture at a young age as her father was a Polish artist living in London. A world of colour, imagination and wonderful people is how she describes her life, believing that creativity is magic, and therefore she has spent her life acquiring skills, from body painting to floristry, owning an art gallery to studying horticulture.
She has traveled in Southern Africa, Namibia, Mozambique, Madagascar, Eastern Europe and Canada. However, when she visited Italy it captured her heart in special way. Magda has seven children who live in three different countries which means she has to continue to travel as she now lives in England. In order to share her enthusiasm, her love of nature, people and places, culture and good food Magda writes articles and Poetry.
