<p class="">I’m a tired Brazilian millennial&nbsp;<em>(yes my friend, another one)</em> who moved to beautiful Scotland with my husband three years ago.</p>



<p class="">Welcome to my blog!<br><br>Think of this as your backstage pass to all my latest obsessions and longtime favourites. As a classic Sagittarius&nbsp;<em>(cof cof, because, of course)</em>, I’m drawn to all things beautiful and creative: period movies and TV series, books, art, nature, music, adventures, and my not-so-secret love, organising&nbsp;<em>(probably a Virgo hiding somewhere in my birth chart, who knows)</em>. And of course, stationery.</p>



<p class="">This blog kind of started as my way of fighting the never-ending cycle of work, eat, Netflix, scroll, sleep, repeat. It’s a cute&nbsp;<em>(and slightly desperate)</em>&nbsp;attempt to stay sane by talking about the things I love.</p>



<p class="">Well, the name kind of says it all, right? Like any tired millennial, I’m a bit of a mess. I love all sorts of things, pick up a new hobby every two months, and obsess over the weirdest stuff. But hey, I do my best to make it all look cute and put together. Life’s chaotic, but if the planner’s color-coded and the mess has a nice filter, we’re doing okay, right? Right?</p>



<p class="">So whether you’re here because you also love cute notebooks, or you’ve rewatched&nbsp;<strong>“Pride and Prejudice”&nbsp;</strong>one too many times, waiting for Mr. Darcy to show up, need a break from the doom-scroll, or just accidentally clicked your way in, welcome! Grab a drink&nbsp;<em>(coffee, tea, wine, no judgment here)</em>, make yourself comfy, and let’s embrace the mess together.<br><br>One post, one obsession, one little joy at a time.<br><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f609.png" alt="😉" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
