neurotic, morally righteous, keenly observant and intense to a fault. i live mostly in my head: daydreaming, critically analyzing the world around me, collecting impressions, talking to myself when no one is looking. the internet has always felt more like home.

i love spending my time obsessing over various topics that pique my interests. when i’m not in my room or at work, i’m probably at thrift shops, obsessing over some niche topic at the library, or travelling somewhere.

my interests include:

fashion, academia, botany, tea, fragrances, nature, cinema, music, nostalgia, picnics, museums, art, philosophy, anthropology, radical feminism, travel, libraries, poetry, gardens, fairies, sweets, cartoons, people watching, memory making, record stores, writing, bookstores, anatomy, medicine, indie web design, and [click for more]
