Millia

I'm Emilia, a 29-year-old book fairy with an old soul and a vintage heart. I live with my love & our two cats in an apartment filled with crafting supplies, books, postcards and tiny trinkets of all sorts.

I'm obsessed with vintage & cottagecore aesthetics and I'm drawn towards all things that make my life seem like I'm an actual grandma living inside a 20-something body. I enjoy quietness, cosiness & calmness and I'm a huge homebody. I could spend weeks & weeks just being at home, focusing on my craft/art projects, petting cats, reading books & writing letters. A quiet, simple life is what makes me happy.

If I ever happen to be seen in public, it will most likely be at a library, at an art museum or at a thrift shop looking for tiny treasures for my craft projects & home. I also enjoy going for quiet walks in nature & attending all sorts of cultural events (art, music, literature).

Creating art, crafting, writing letters and reading books are my dearest pastimes. I've graduated from art school & I'm currently working at a second-hand store focusing on vintage clothes & crafting supplies. I love working there & seeing all kinds of unique clothes every day!

🔪 teas with fruits and/or chamomile

🔪 reward / childish stickers

🔪 neon colors (see above)

🔪 sharks, spiders, insects

🔪 religious themes & holidays

P.S I usually don't respond to the ratings I've been given (unless the rating involves a question etc) but it always makes me so happy if people tell me that they like my sendings and/or if my letter made their day a bit more brighter 💐 So just know that even though I might not reply to your rating I'll always be sending gentle thoughts your way!
