about me

Welcome to my little messy corner of a blog! I'm Miya (she/her), an 18-year-old Asian Latina currently based in Brazil (but not for long, tho) who loves books (so much!), wishes to become a filmmaker someday (hopefully) and has a huge variety of hobbies (I'll be addressing them in here, probably).

In too much miya, you'll see:
  • book reviews (and recommendations)
  • language learning tips and whatnot (I'm a polyglot!)
  • film rants (and also some recs)
  • tips about studying/living abroad!
  • and more!


 languages I speak
  • Portuguese
  • English
  • Spanish
  • French (really bad)
  • Japanese (also pretty bad)
  • Italian (studying just for fun, because I legit suck at it)

where to find me
