Tilde de Paula was born in 1972 in Chile. Her father was a Brazilian politician who had to flee Brazil after receiving death threats.[2] In Cuba he met Tildes mother and the two moved to Chile.

In 2015 Tilde wrote the Swedish best selling book Tiden läker inga sår where she for the first time tells the story of her past and how her ancestors have influenced her life. The story begins five generations back in Tenerife 1867 and continues to Cuba, the US and Chile before ending up in Sweden today.[11] The clear connections between the story of the book and today's refugee situation has led Tilde to travel all over Sweden to hold lectures on the topic.
