      Yeah, I’ve been travelling to the USA this year and somehow feel more connected to our European neighbours now because we are so close and it’s such a great thing to live in this cultural variety with all those different languages and traditions. I guess we‘ll have to live with the situation and find ways to make connections work, nevertheless. I loved London and will definitely switch to Harriet Wright‘s stickers, just not the subscription because of the costs. ☺️

    i just wanna leave this out there for anyone that cares I am writing with Diamine forest green and it really just looks like faded black. Asked a bunch of my friends if they felt the same and yea. now I'm stuck with this ink because I can't move on until it's used and finished even though I have a perfectly fine sheaffer skrip black. someone give me permission to throw the diamine away. i need someone to tell me its okay

      If you don’t like it you should totally give it to someone who loves it. Or you could try to sell it if you have a full bottle. If you only have a sample, there is no harm in throwing it away. That’s what they are for, to try if you like it. ☺️
