Csenge (pronounced Chen-gah) Zalka, is one of our younger storytellers, but also one of those whose work goes deep. Csenge is from Hungry and she works with primary source, archival material to create the work she presents. Csenge is the first International Hungarian storyteller, she spent a year in the USA studying storytelling, had published her book at age 27, created an international festival in Budapest, has an MA in archaeology, and has a ton of other books since published. Oh, and she tells wonderful stories. Csenge and I first met when I went to the NSN Storytelling Conference back in, I don't know when. I saw her and American storyteller Rachel Ann Harding telling a set of tales together and was intrigued.  I followed her blog for a long time – the Multi-colored Diary, and every once in a while, we would ping each other. And I really wanted to get her feelings on the subject of folk and fairy tales, myths and legends and hear what it is like being an international storyteller in Hungry.
