currently living in a global coffee village of the mind...

do you ever feel like you were meant to live inside a cozy international café in 2003 — surrounded by incense, secondhand books, quiet vinyls, and warm strangers who always seem to be mid-poem? lately i’ve been spiraling into the global coffeehouse aesthetic — the kind that smells like cardamom and bergamot tea, sounds like norah jones or zero 7, and looks like warm film grain and flickering candles in a berlin apartment. think: brown leather couches, orange and brown combo, philosophy books with bent spines, mismatched ceramics, acoustic guitars, emotional fluency, staying in bed, yankee candles, vampires, coffee — and so many other things. if you also crave slow mornings, handwritten letters, and movies that feel like they were shot through amber-tinted windows… stay with me. i left a list of films at the end for your next soft spiral. 🌒📚🧿 and yes — there’s a letterboxd list too, right at the bottom. ☕✨
