I'm a curious, creative person who finds joy in slow hobbies & beautiful details! Most of my free time is spent with a book in hand, needlepoint projects, journaling, wandering with a film camera (very much a beginner), and writing handwritten letters. I love bookstores, cozy cafés, collecting little treasures, and making things that feel personal. I live in the mountains with my partner and dog, Ginger. I'm happy discussing books, travel, art, photography, everyday life, or small joys. I'd love to exchange stories, recommendations, and glimpses of your daily life.
