NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE A SWAP FROM ME, PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE RATING, SINCE IT MUST HAVE GOT LOST IN THE MAIL. I ALWAYS RE-SEND MY SWAPS IF NECESSARY. ALSO, PLEASE WAIT ABOUT ONE MONTH FOR MAIL ARRIVAL SINCE POSTAL SERVICES CAN BE QUITE SLOW AND MAIL CAN GET LOST - ESPECIALLY IN MY CITY, THE POSTAL SERVICES HAVE BEEN QUITE SLOW DUE TO THE PANDEMIC. IF I AM LATE FOR ANY REASON, YOU WILL RECEIVE A MESSAGE FROM ME BEFORE MAILING. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING!

Hello! Welcome to my page! I live near Vancouver, Canada, in a city called Surrey. I am a first-year uni student, in Nursing school, and Swapbot is one of my hobbies that I enjoy doing whenever I have some extra time or need an escape! I love crafting, painting, digital art, reading, and collecting postcards. I played competitive frisbee (ultimate) for a few years but had to stop due to the pandemic. I enjoy spending time with my blue-nosed pitbull, Denzel, and have one furry angel in heaven, named Diesel. I started my Swapbot account to collect postcards, which I have been collecting for over 10 years now! I first started collecting through a school program, as well as Facebook groups, but have now progressed to using sites like Swapbot and Postcrossing! I have come across so many lovely people here, and it is so exciting that we are all able to come together to enjoy our snail mail hobby!

Listening to music is one of my favourite pastimes! Finding new songs and curating new Spotify playlists has become one of my obsessions! I usually listen to a variety of different genres of music, but my all-time favourites would have to be: • Rap • R&B • Punjabi • Bollywood music •

In terms of artists that I enjoy listening to, there are so many. To name a few: • Jhene Aiko • Big Sean • Cardi B • Drake • Kehlani • Summer Walker • J Cole • Russ •

If you are ever in need of a writing prompt on a postcard or letter, recommend me some songs you think I would like. Or, just let me know what you have currently been listening to!

Reading is one of my favourite hobbies! I am an avid reader, and spend a lot of time on Goodreads looking for books to add to my TBR! My favourite genres of books are as follows: • Romance • Dark Romance • Young Adult • New Adult • Psychological Thrillers • Poetry •

The tropes that I’m usually drawn towards are: • Enemies to lovers • fake dating • marriage of convenience • mafia • high school • college themes • bully trope •

Within the last little while, I have found so many authors that I love. My favourites would have to be: •Colleen Hoover • LJ Shen • Penelope Douglas • Penelope Ward • Vi Keeland • Christina Lauren •

Some books that I have rated 5 stars: • It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover • Punk 57 by Penelope Douglas • Beach Read by Emily Henry • Bully by Penelope Douglas • The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren • The Hating Game by Sally Thorne ​​• The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides • Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid •

I am ALWAYS looking for book recommendations! If you can add your favourite book on a postcard or note that would be awesome! If not, feel free to even send me a message with some books you think I would enjoy - I love talking books!

I will be the first to admit that I prefer TV series compared to movies, but nonetheless, I have a list of some movies that I have really enjoyed!
