Giulia Kollmann has been plagued by a lifelong identity crisis that turns the exercise of producing a biography rather inconclusive. She has three citizenships, and is repeatedly accused of a poor performance of all her nationalities. She was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a place she loves but where she never quite belonged, and currently lives in Berlin, Germany, a city she chose partially for being an outsider in its own country, much like herself. She has been passionate about writing ever since she broke her front tooth on the same day she was gifted her first diary notebook; how serendipitous, her 6-year-old self thought, that she was given a story to tell on the same day she was given the means to tell it.
