Introduction

A new blog, a new start.

I started my previous blog in 2007, when I was 15 years old. Now I'm 18 years old. I have changed into a completely different person, on the other hand I'm still exactly the same. But for months I didn't really feel "at home" at my blog anymore. I felt like I was stuck in the past, while I had already started a new beginning.

I chose the name "18th Century Girl" because of my obsession for things like Versailles, Marie Antoinette, Rococo and Georgiana The Duchess Of Devonshire. I try to put something of the life of the rich and famous back then, the elite, the royalty, the ton, in my everyday life. Sometimes I want to step out of the current, when I can only see the dark lines of the world. I step into my self created world with the romantic visuals of the 18th century. It's like being completely exhausted, then finally going to sleep and wandering off in dreams, so I can awaken with my energy regained.

Here I'll show you bits of that world I have created. I try to create emotions and feelings through photographs, text, music and what not. Here the world is as I want it to be, things go as I want it to go. Through the lens of my camera I try to discover beauty in the smallest things, in this messed up world man has created.

To the readers of this blog: I hope I can give you something to enjoy. Maybe just like me, you can forget your troubles of the day, even if it's only just for one second.
