Autorenporträt
Constantina R. Palmer is from New Brunswick, a quaint province on Canada's Atlantic coast. She lived in Thessaloniki, Greece, for almost six years, during which time she received a Master's degree in theology from Aristotle University and studied Cretan-style iconography as well as Byzantine chant. Not one to simply learn from books, she also spent significant time at a number of women's monasteries throughout northern Greece. Currently, she lives with her husband, an Orthodox priest, in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada, serving the only Orthodox parish on the island of Newfoundland. She is also a social worker.
