Freya Latona is a writer and mother of two currently living in Southern Tasmania, an island off an island, a wilder and colder place than mainland Australia. Raised in Byron Bay, she holds much of the rainbow region within her. 

In her spare time, she partakes in mostly Coastal Grandma activities: walking solo along empty beaches, wearing breezy linens, and decorating houses. Airy (as opposed to naughty) by nature, she meditates every day and often has trouble landing back on this plane. 

Her irreverent parents instilled an innate disregard towards authority and ‘the way things are supposed to be’. As such, she is tardy with personal administration, physically unable to follow orders if they don’t feel intuitively right, and likely to be truant. So far in life, this has served her excellently. 

She currently works as a copywriter for a Sydney-based architecture and interior design agency, and has a PhD in non-fiction writing. As a freelancer, she has written nature, lifestyle and academic articles for various Australian and international publications. 

She shares her writing on themes like philosophy, spirituality, motherhood, beauty, peacefulness, empath sensitivity, nature and subconscious renewal in her Substack newsletter. 

Like all of her maternal family, she always seems to have a chase driven, yet unreservedly loyal, rescued cattle dog by her side.
