Nishaa Sharma

Freelance Writer and Editor at Freelance Journalist

Originally from the Pacific Northwest, I’ve made my way to the English countryside via Canada, Australia, Hungary, and Portugal. Along the way, I’ve found my passion for creating content, and now use my nine years of expertise in social media to bring you the latest and greatest in home trends.

I am all about the aesthetic and getting the luxe look for less. Whether it’s curating a color palette, styling a shelfie, or finding a way to DIY a decor piece, I’ve put the research in and created a million mood boards for it.

I’ve moved around a lot, and through that I’ve come to discover ways to make any space a home, whether it’s been my dorm room, a hostel attic, a spare room in a family house, or (finally!) my very first apartment.
