A HYBRID BIBLIOMANIAC

A record of my time travelling adventures

My name is Mia and the reason I chose to call myself a hybrid bibliomaniac is because I'm the product of an Indian dad and a Filipina mom. I also have an incessant need to splurge money that I don't always have on secondhand books no matter how many I already have.
