When it comes to DIY projects my interests are wide and varied. I believe I was once rebuked as becoming a "Jack of all trades and a Master of None" and to be honest I carry that descriptor with pride. I enjoy trying everything. Most recently I have been obsessed with paper crafts and stickers and washi tape so it is no surprise that enjoy journaling and I have picked up letter writing as a new hobby. I am learning watercolor and have just started stamp making. I know how to sew crochet and knit. I can cook and bake and more. It I enjoy it I have probably attempted to make it before.

I enjoy reading but tbh I just don't have the attention span that I once did. When I was younger I would read chapter book series. But as a adult I love short story collections and poetry and articles on medium. I'd love to have a copy of one of your favorite poems or short stories that would be fun to share some of mine back! I especially enjoy non-fiction. I read personal finance and entrepreneurship books for fun. I'm a bit of a nerd.

In a similar vein to books, I love podcasts! It was something I picked up when I had a really long commute, although I listen less now, often while crafting or cooking. Some of My favorite podcasts are Hardcore History, Radiolab, Welcome to Night Vale, Retire Inspired, and Side Hustle School.

When it come to my taste in music my taste varies by my mood. Although over the years I have listened to most types of music. Right no I have suddenly started listening to Billie Holiday and thanks to Pandora and other playlists more music of that era. I have also been listen to a lot of Hozier's new album. And R&B has always been in my life. Drake, Rhianna, and Beyoncé are always in rotation.

I have a cat he is 4 years old and his name is Motor Man. He was a rescue. He was born on the streets in Philly and he was my 20th birthday gift. On the day I got him home he purred so loudly he reminded me of an old motor car, and my mother said I looked like he was wearing pants in the way his fur was laying and thus he was named Motor Man. He is a jerk but he can also be very affectionate although normally only to me. He means the world to me and in my darkest times he has saved my life. He is a pampered prince that only eats Fancy Feast wet food and Blue dry food. He lives in windows and has a weird hobby of licking plastic bags.

When it comes to trying to send me things I appreciate anything you took time to deliberately send me but her are some of my favorites: I enjoy Long Letters, Stickers, Die cuts, Washi Tape, Sicky Notes, Unicorns, Poems, Short stories, Old Book Pages, Pretty Paper, Any Tea Except Green Tea!, Chocolate, Recipes, Mini Poliroid Pictures, Letter sets, Journals, Art Hand Made by you or Prints, Black, White and, Gold Color Schemes, Temporary Tattoos, and more!

I am 24 years old. I work in customer service. I live with my boyfriend, my cat, and a roommate. I just learned that I have IBS so I have been learning how to adapt my lifestyle to a low FODMAP diet. I am a crafty introvert that is working or building strong lasting relationships. I am doing my best to be the best version of myself and be proud of my effort. I am never quite sure what to put in these things. But I am looking forward to meeting new friends around the world to share my thoughts with and goodies as well. As we meet each other through swaps feel free to become my new penpal :)

Hello everyone. I unfortunately got very sick at the end of July and due to some minor complications and I am just getting back to normal now. This means I failed on sending my swaps on time and completing them however I will send them all out. I realize I am late but I wont leave anyone without a swap. I hope you can be patient with me during this time. I know I have not been on Swap Bot for years but in the past few months I have had a lot of fun and have gotten all 5 and hope I can get past this hiccup. I will not join anything else until all my late swaps are out and I am fully recovered to avoid future delays.
