AJ @ Travelling Tales

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story

About Me

Kia Ora from Athene (AJ) Jensen, a New Zealand based storyteller on the west coast of the North Island in the village of Raglan (Whaingaroa).

Storytelling is an organic art, it is forever changing with the stories that reflect our past and present societies and ways of life.

Storytelling is my passion, I started my business (Travelling Tales) 'officially', 2 years ago with a healthy grant from the government... since then I've also taken on three days a week lecturing in Early Childhood education.

My Interests

Lots

I'd like to meet:

Those who are into story, storytelling,drama, music and other creative arts. I'm particularly keen on sharing ideas around performance and stories.



Music:

I like a variety of music, but I'm one of those people who will love a song and not find out who sung it for a year.

Now having said that, I must admit that some of my favorite music is grown right here in Whaingaroa, it's coming from b-side records so click on this and get over to their website to check out what they've got to offer.
For some awesome NZ roots music check out Cornerstone Roots at www.motherland.co.nz

Books:

My books are some of my most treasured possessions. In fact, my book shelf is sorted into catagories: Storybooks/resources;
Poetry;
Religious/Spiritual;
My Favorite Fiction;
My old kids books;
My NEW comics (Yes I am a comic geek also;
Photo albums and Diaries (Dating waaaaaay back)
And finally non fiction.

Still doesn't really let you know what I like but I will give you a clue The Storybooks and Story resources take up the most room.
