Petra is currently taking a gap year before graduating with a BA in English. She has an unrelenting interest in art, culinary and fashion history, as well as in the more morbid facets of human history and nature. She has taken courses in Swedish language and culture and hopes to move to a secluded cottage somewhere in the north at one point in her life. When not daydreaming, she likes to gush or rant about films and books or goes on youtube deep-dives in search of niche content. She is fascinated by how history and culture shape our language and vice-versa.
