From Bari in Italy, Wala went to Liverpool. The beginnings were not easy: she longed for the Vilnius region and didn’t know the language. However, Wala’s innate optimism won through. First, she became a stenographer at an English company. Later, she worked in the Polish Section of the BBC in London. She developed her artistic passions under the guidance of the painter and teacher Marian Bohusz-Szyszko, who painted her portrait. In the third and last part of Elżbieta Smoleńska’s interview with Waleria Sawicka, memories from exile resurface.
