Samantha Grob works remotely as a German language teacher & storyteller, bringing seven years of communications expertise to her craft as a word witch. She fences with syllable ravels, weaving them into meaningful texts with bits of logic and magic.

Her intercultural upbringing as an adventurer between East and West has shaped both her worldview and her writing. Having grown up multilingually, she crafts coherent texts in German and English, and approaches each project with the curiosity of someone who has travelled the globe – first with her father, later alone – as much as she has grazed through books. (She even had a pet camel!) Where most see uncertainty, Samantha sees the brink of adventure and beauty. She firmly believes that imagination is the only valid currency in life, and writing is like flying on a broomstick.

Samantha is also an avid meditation practitioner with over 13 years of experience and was once fortunate enough to meet His Holiness The Dalai Lama, which, combined with her passion for slow living, infuses her work with depth and intentionality.

As an art historian with studies in European and Persian art history and philosophy, she used to work internationally for contemporary art galleries. Whilst her voice continues to resonate as an art critic, she now works as a certified German as a Foreign Language teacher because it allows her to follow a more flexible schedule to foster her writing practice.

Trivia: Samantha finds solace in the water and is working toward a long-held dream of volunteering as a mammal rescue diver for Sea Shepherd and fighting ocean pollution. Green tea and the Moomins keep her cheery!
