Hello trading friends!

Feb 24 (I'll be moving soon, so you may see a conflicting return address on long term collab projects I'm sending out. If I expect return more than a couple months from now, it will have the new address on it) 🏡

I just adopted a black kitten I named Soju, after the drink. He's my first kitty and I'm so in love! He has the biggest green eyes you've ever seen. It's been a year since I lost my giant dog, and I was finally ready for another furry lovebug.

I’m 38 and live in Colorado. I work as an avionics tech and love anything aviation or space travel related.

Hooked on history docs & YouTube series — Obsessed with miniature builds and tiny things.

*I rate as soon as I get your swap! The mail is insane, so I try to give it a solid month before I start panicking over lost mail. Please contact me if there are any issues.

My main hobbies are junk/art journals. But I also sew/quilt and do basically any craft out there. I enjoy scavenging for ephemera and repurposing unique items. Creating small dioramas… I’m obsessed with tiny things!

For crafting, I like foreign language book pages, especially ones with a different alphabet, sheet music, maps, instructions with interesting diagrams/calculations, old weathered poetry and dictionary pages.

For reading, I’m kind of a sucker for YA & mysteries. Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Classics like Little Women, Anne of Green Gables, Hardy Boys & Nancy Drew. Star Wars novels, especially on audio. Favorite author is James Rollins, especially his Tucker Wayne series. LA Witt & her MM series Anchor Point.
