Mathilde hails from a small country that has three official languages and holds the world record for going the longest time without a government. Mathilde is small, she speaks three languages, and she’s not too fond of authority.
Mathilde’s homeland produces the world’s finest chocolate. Which explains a lot.
When she isn’t eating chocolate, Mathilde writes plays, screenplays and poems. She has also written articles for The Huffington Post, and, bizarrely, for several newspapers an magazines in Sri Lanka.
Mathilde's full name is Mathilde Gisele Jessica Alice Marie Dratwa Wojciechowski. Yes, really.
