Hello! My name is Laia.
I'm forever on the cusp of adulthood, hailing from the Philippines and living in the States.
I'm fascinated in the macabre, art, literature, film, and anything that catches my attention. I may have passions in other fields, but art is my first and foremost love.
I'm fluent in English & Tagalog, and can hold a conversation in French. I'm currently relearning Japanese and Korean.
Overall welcome to my abode, and I hope you enjoy your stay! n.n xx
