penpalterra

My name is Terra and I’m 30 and I’m from KY, USA. I’m a married, mom of 3. In my free time I like to penpal, swap postcards, craft, journal, write, read, and bake. I have a typewriter named Stanley. I love plants. I have 13 indoor plants at the moment and I’m always looking to buy more. I used to bullet journal my planner, but now I am the happy owner of The Happy Planner and I really love it.

Sometimes I have a hard time sticking to hobbies. I tend to bounce around according to my mood and what is keeping my interest. Reading was my main love for the longest time until writing stole the show. Then I spend a few years writing books, then I found bullet journaling which lead to art journaling and then I discovered penpaling and postcrossing. Now here I am.

I am an Eclectic Witch. I like working with my tarot cards and candles and I love to celebrate the Sabbats. I don’t spend as much time as I think I should on my craft, but I try to practice as much as I can. I love to hear about others paths.

Postcard preference: Bookish, Holiday themed-Christmas, Halloween,etc, Pagan, Horror, Handmade, Movie, Tv show, Postcards from Etsy - ArtfulGeetCreations, TrendyPostcards, etc, Blank state postcards
