Elin standing with her hand on a stone wall which overlooks the city of Girona in Spain. She wears a white mini skater dress which has lace detailing around the waist, down the centre, along the hem and on the sleeves which fall just below her elbows. It’s paired with a white handbag which has gold hardware. Her shoulder length brown hair is worn straight and she’s smiling broadly at the camera.

“Everyone wants happiness, no one wants pain, but you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain.”

About

me

Hello! I’m Elin, a 20-something Welsh girl who you’ll most likely find at a concert, writing or curled up with a good book.

 I created My Blurred World in April 2015 in the hope of raising awareness of vision impairment and ultimately building the very platform that I could have benefited from stumbling upon when I was younger. 

You’ll find a little bit of everything here; from the occasional fashion feature and concert experience, to introspective diary entries and personal musings, all of which are punctuated with my trademark ramblings on all things vision impairment.

An eternal optimist, I write positive, yet honest, features on living as a vision impaired person in the hope that my words can help others in a similar situation.

So, if you’re a fellow disabled person who’s searching for reassurance; a non-disabled person who’s looking to learn a little something; or simply a fellow writer, bookworm or concert-goer who’s navigating their twenties – this space is for you.

She wears a beige high neck top which has a diamond shaped cutout, and black faux leather trousers. She's smiling and looking away from the camera to her right.

I can’t change my impairment, but I can change how I react to it.
