Name: Blythe
Age: 37

I mostly post about:
Life on the Cornish coast, daily swims in the sea, studio days at the pottery wheel, what’s blooming in the garden, what I’m reading (mostly mid-century women writers), the small rituals that keep me steady, and occasional thoughts on slow living and soft rebellion.

My hobbies are:
Ceramics, sea swimming, baking things that go with tea, reading literary fiction (especially anything with layered domestic dynamics and quiet emotional collapse), pressing flowers into notebooks, and making seasonal playlists.

I'm looking to meet people who:
Write or read with heart, find beauty in the everyday, value kindness, know the pleasure of a well-brewed pot of tea, or also spend entire evenings choosing which notebook to start. Anyone who understands that joy and sadness often walk hand in hand.

My posting schedule tends to be:
Softly inconsistent— I'm aiming for 2-3x week, sometimes once a week, sometimes three times in a day if I’m feeling chatty or emotionally unspooled. Usually seasonal—more reflective in winter, more playful in summer.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
Cruelty, racism, snobbery, homophobia, transphobia, or taking yourself far too seriously. I’m not here for edge for edge’s sake.

Before adding me, you should know:
I write a little like I talk—long, meandering, full of parentheses and feelings. I will absolutely comment on your post about moss or jam or the book you half-finished three years ago. I’m not perfect, but I’m trying to be soft on purpose.

Finding the beauty in the everyday is my life philosophy. Your life sounds very different to mine (live in a big city, fast-paced), but I do love the moments of slow living and small rituals and we have common interests/things we enjoy - literary fiction, swimming in the sea, notebooks and tea.

Oh, I love this — it’s such a comfort to know we can live such different lives and still find connection in the little things. I think that’s the magic of it, really — that tea and tide and good books have this way of gently threading people together across distance and pace. Sending a sea breeze from Cornwall to your city window — may you find a quiet moment or two today for the rituals that steady you. 🌊📖🍵

hello, hi

I absolutely love the way you write, and your philosophy of slow living and mundane beauty. I'm an illustrator living in the English countryside, I went to uni in Plymouth and frequently drove into Cornwall for the weekends (I was not a typical uni student). I love notebooks and get excited over stationery, and I'm trying to get back into reading again after a huge slump. I hope you won't mind if I add you.

Thank you so much — that means the world to me. It’s wonderful to meet someone who shares that love for slow living and finding beauty in the everyday. Cornwall weekends must have been such a special escape during uni — I know all about needing to leave the city behind! Notebooks and stationery truly are tiny treasures, aren’t they? Please do add me — I’d love to share this slow, gentle journey with you, especially as you find your way back to reading again. ✨📚🌿

You sound perfect. Absolutely adding you.

Oh, you’re far too kind! I’m so glad you’re here — looking forward to sharing little moments and stories with you. 🌞✨

I would love to add you if that’s okay?

Of course — I’d be so glad to have you here! Please do add me. I’m always grateful for kindred spirits finding their way into this little corner. 🌿📚✨

You sound like such an interesting and kind person - your journal seems like something I would enjoy reading and I would really love to get to know you.
I definitely do value kindness very much and do try to find beauty in the every day, even if it's "just" little things. I'm a huge reader and love listening to all kinds of music so your seasonal playlists make me curious.

My name is Tina, I am 37 and live in Germany with my cat Lucy. Want to give being friends a try? :)

Tina, this is such a lovely message — thank you. I’d really love to be friends. It sounds like we have a lot in common already: a love of everyday beauty, books, music… and a cat-shaped companion (I’m already picturing Lucy napping in a sunbeam). I’m so glad you reached out. Here’s to slow days, good stories, shared songs, and kind connections across the miles. 🌸📖🐾✨

You sound nice and kind and a well balanced person! I think we might get along. I'm a bit of a gypsy and have lived all over; Somerset, the Cotswolds, New Forest, Cambridgeshire, Northern Ireland and Edinburgh and I am now in central Manchester close to my younger son. I'm sure this is my last move. I am adding you, add back if you would like to.

Thank you — that’s so kind of you to say. You’ve lived in such a rich tapestry of places — it must bring such depth to how you see the world. I imagine each move left its own imprint. I’d be very happy to add you back, and I’m glad our paths crossed here. 🌾📍✨

Would love to add you, as you seem a very well-rounded and interesting person <3

That’s so kind of you to say — thank you! I’d be very happy to be added, and I’m looking forward to sharing quiet moments and little joys along the way. 🌼✨

I can take days to pick the right notebook and I could survive on good tea. Love your style of writing and I think we could get along. If you don't mind, I'd like to add you?

You seem like a sensitive soul.
I’d love to read along as you write. I will add you.
Swimming in the sea, baking, reading are the shared interests. I’m also in the UK btw and have been to St. Ives (beautiful town).
