Hi, I’m Mari 🤍 I can be a little shy when I first meet someone, and I usually don’t open up right away. I just need a little time to get comfortable, and after that I become much more talkative and can easily get lost in a conversation for hours. Music is almost always somewhere around me. 🎧 I listen to it at home, while walking, when I’m doing something, or simply when I want to disappear into my own mood for a while. I think I’m naturally drawn to things that let me get immersed and forget about time.

For me, cosplay is a chance to become someone completely different for a little while. 🎀 I enjoy choosing a character, thinking about the outfit, makeup, and all the tiny details that make the look feel recognizable. What I find especially interesting is trying to capture not only the appearance, but also a little bit of the character’s mood and personality. I still want to experiment much more, so I’m constantly collecting new ideas. Sometimes my list of future cosplays grows much faster than I can actually make them. 🤭

I really love stories in all their forms. ✨ I can spend an evening watching a movie, start a new series, or randomly discover an anime that stays in my head for the next few days. I especially enjoy stories that make me care about the characters, guess what might happen next, and keep thinking about certain scenes even after everything is over. Although my “just one episode before bed” plan doesn’t always stay at one episode. 😅

As much as I enjoy entertainment, sometimes I like slowing things down with something quieter. 📚 I enjoy reading, especially when I find a book or subject that genuinely catches my attention. Sometimes I want a story I can completely disappear into, and other times I feel like learning something new and useful. I really like the feeling that I’m slowly growing, understanding myself better, and trying things I didn’t know or couldn’t do before. There’s no rush and no need to become perfect. I just like noticing that I’m a little more confident and know a little more today than I did yesterday. 🌿
