Profile updated 6th of April

I'm in the process of moving apartment!

And will not join any swaps until I'm settled.
The swap (Antler Headdress) I'm hosting has been postponed until I can swap again.
Thank you for taking your time to read this :)

Just lost a close family member and a beloved family pet, in the matter of 2 days during this week, on top of the move.... I'm a little stressed and don't have that much time for Swap-bot at the moment....

My name is Mia, I live with my husband near Copenhagen in Denmark. I don't have any kids, but I do have a cat :D His name is Misling, he is old and grumpy and I love him very much.

I am a kitchen/hedge/nature witch and work with nature, mother earth, plants, amulets, rituals, spells, meditation, myths, dreams, tarot, candlemagic, herbs, flowermagic, incense, Sabbats, esbats, folklore, food magic and much more

I'm also af medieval re-enactor, so I love anything medieval.... food, music, art, history, fashion, crafts, folklore and so on

I listen to a lot of music, mostly black metal, gothic metal/rock and medieval music. But also doom-, death-, viking-, epic-, folk-, trash-metal and Scandinavian folk music.

Animals: Cats!!!!!!!!!!, owls, foxes, squirrels, dolphins, ravens, crows, mice, dragonflies. (actually I love all animals (but monkeys scare me), some people have the opinion that I seem to value the life of an animal higher then life of a human and sometimes that's true... as twisted as it might be)
