About Susanna Hawkins
Hello and welcome, I’m Susanna- stylist, writer, content creator and sender of love letters from a crumbling Georgian manor in the Cotswolds.
I grew up in a small village in southwest Finland, where my love for calm, considered spaces began early. After a master’s in neurobiology, I packed my bags for New York City - a genetics research lab by day, a shoebox apartment in Gramercy Park by night, living my best SATC fantasy.
A spontaneous trip to Antigua changed everything. I met my now-husband (along with his entire extended family, but that’s a story for another time), and soon after, I found myself living in London and working in pharmaceutical research… and then, after a decade, a big, scary leap into something completely new. I started my own creative business and worked as a stylist, a photographer, a content creator and a writer, and never looked back.
