Hi there,
A few years ago, I swapped Brazil’s vibrant chaos for the misty mornings of the UK. By day, I work in tech, but my heart lives in slow moments, mismatched mugs, and the art of turning solitude into something sacred.
Living alone, far from family and old friends, wasn’t always easy. At first, the quiet felt heavy. But over time, I’ve learnt that loneliness and solitude are not the same. One aches; the other heals.
This blog is my love letter to the intentional solo life — and proof that a home for one can still feel whole.
On your solo journey?
I hope this blog can help you navigate the solo life with intention and purpose.
