Sobre IBD

The Greatest Storytellers on Earth can be found in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan-a land that feels like one of the last untouched frontiers of the continental United States. Nestled in this rugged and remote region of the true north, the Upper Peninsula boasts a culture all its own, shaped by generations who have lived close to the forests, lakes, and harsh winters. Here, a community of roughly 320,000 people has been raised in the oral tradition, where stories are passed down by word of mouth, each tale carrying the echoes of the past. From tall tales spun by the firelight to legends whispered along snow-covered trails, storytelling here is not just entertainment-it is a way of life, a living thread connecting the present to the heritage and heart of this extraordinary corner of the country.
