Basic Stats: I'm in my mid 20s, live in the South West UK with my boyfriend, have a degree in anthropology & archaeology, and work in a museum. White, liberal, cis-female, heteroflexible, pissed off about the current state of politics but I try to keep that pretty low-key here, because I have anxiety issues and it stresses me out if I let myself get focused on it.

I like to post about: Not sure yet! I'm used to sites like tumblr, twitter, and pinterest where I can repost and like, but I've always kept diaries/journals and I'm looking forward to interacting with people. I'll probably spend most of my time on here either talking about everyday life or rambling about whatever new thing I've gotten excited about

Stuff I like:
Music Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, Evanescence, Nickelback, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Panic! at the Disco, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Blink-182
Movies Star Wars, MCU, Bohemian Rhapsody, Deadpool, A Star Is Born, Greatest Showman, Mamma Mia, Frozen, Beauty & The Beast, The Lion King
TV Doctor Who, His Dark Materials, Good Omens, V-Wars, Walking Dead, Supernatural, American Horror Story, Haunting Of Hill House, Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina, Charmed
Books The Secret Garden, Tom's Midnight Garden, The Borrowers, Chronicles Of Narnia, Charlotte's Web, Peter Pan, Swallows and Amazons, A Wrinkle In Time, Harry Potter

I'm looking for: Journals to read and interact with. Possibly even new friends?

Hey there! I'm a reference librarian who works with historical and government documents, and I share your fondness for classic children's literature. I post fairly regularly, mostly about daily life.

Also, tickled to see that you just moved away from Exeter - I'm from the US but worked in Exeter ten years ago on a student visa. Despite being broke and having to contend with the damp chill of an English winter, I really loved SW England. I still daydream about coming into money and retiring to a fairy tale cottage out on Dartmoor like Terri Windling.
