Hi! My name is Leonie and I am a 23 year old girl who loves talking about books! From YA to non-fiction to classics, I read it all (although fantasy will always be my fave). I live in the Netherlands and go to university, but make booktube videos in my spare time :)

That language part resonated so much with me, lol. I'm german, so I speak german (and english obviously), I can understand a bit of dutch because like you said, they're kinda similar, I took french in school but also can't really SPEAK it because it's been 7 years, super basic level of spanish and I'm also trying to learn japanese right now. Also have to learn latin (and maybe greek) for university.

I love that this tag is a thing and you always give off dark academia vibes & I love it. The outfits are SO cute & peak dark academia. I'm a history major and would love to be an egyptologist except I would prob have to live in Egypt to actually have that career. So I teach myself in my free time lol. Audible has this great new thing called The Great Courses. They're lectures by professors and basically people who know what they're talking about. I'm listening to one right now called The History of Ancient Egypt and it's so good! It helps that each lecture is about 30 minutes, so you can listen to one at a time and there are 24ish hours in all I believe. Just wanted to let you know! It's like getting the quality information and lecture of a college course but the cost is a lot different haha. There are also many different subjects but you mentioned Egyptian mythology so I thought you may wanna know!

I love Leonie and seriously, no offence to anyone, but I absolutely hate how westernized dark academia is. I mean, coats/candles/shakespeare blah blah it's all so western centric and I think that's so sad that people limit it to just that. Have you ever looked up indian dark academia on instagram or tumblr? It is mindblowing!!! Gorgeous saris/anarkalis, diyas, urdu poets/so many books, have you seen mughal architecture?!!!, henna, hindu mythology, chai oh my god there's so much i wish dark academia enthusiasts were more diverse with their love for DA.
