Arzanne De Vitre (b. 1981) is the proud publisher of her first, bilingual poetry collection, Broer // Bridges.

She is passionate about building bridges between people with seemingly vast differences in worldviews, backgrounds and interests, as she believes that we meet first and foremost as human beings – heart to heart.

Arzanne seeks out all arenas and opportunities to create dialogue about what it means to live a meaningful life in thriving communities. With years of experience through her many roles in Drammen Sacred Music Festival, she works on several cultural projects, including poetry evenings, film screenings and concerts.

She has worked as a teacher for 18 years, and revels in poetry, Biodanza and music. She is currently training to become a Biodanza facilitator.

I am still journeying, and for the most part, I travel lightly – rooted in the quiet knowing that home lives in more than one place
