Celia Linn Serafia Östergaard was born and raised in Karlskrona, Sweden. She read her first book at the age of five and wrote her first short-story in English at ten. She has been collecting books since the age of twelve. Celia loves history just as much as she loves music, animals and spending time with her family. After three years of social studies with an international profile, she intends to study history or literature at university in Sweden or abroad.
