1. What’s your name, where are you from and how long have you been a member of the TS?

My name is Elena Bessie Camplone, I come from Pescara, a charming town on the Adriatic coast in Abruzzo, a beautiful Italian region. In my city unfortunately there are no theosophical groups, so in 2014 I joined the TS as an independent member, remaining in the occult mode for five years. I read magazines and books but I didn't know anyone. In 2019 I finally started to actively participate, also thanks to the general increase in digital media that we have seen in recent years.
