About Me

I like to think of myself as being a really genuine person, honest and kind. I love doing things for others and am very family orientated. My husband would call me a homebody but I do love to sit under the covers and read a good book or just binge on series. I don't follow the trends much and although I am 27 years old I am not the average.

I love going to craft and food markets, going on adventure hikes and trying out new beauty things such as masks, and DIY facials. I don't really wear makeup as I am totally clueless but I am starting to build my collection.

I love writing and really look forward to making new friends. I spend most of my time with my husband and due to health issues don't go out much so I appreciate pen pal friendships as I can learn more about people, cultures and the world.

I would like to describe my personality as eclectic. I enjoy a variety of cultures and activities I can go on and on but I would like it if I could make new friends and share with them more about myself.

Favorite Books

I love a good novel! My favorite authors are Francine Rivers and Marian Keyes (just started reading her and I'm hooked) I do not have a set genre of book to read, I am opened to explore new authors

Favorite Movies

Of course like most people it would be Titanic and The Notebook but I also love true story movies. I enjoy watching romance, action and comedy Latest movies I have enjoyed were American Made, Dark Tower, Atomic Blonde. I am Indian so I also love Hindi movies as well

Favorite Television

I'm a sucker for a good series. Suits

The Originals

How to get away with murder

Lucifer

New Girl

OJ Simpson - American Crime Story

Criminal Minds

CSI

Yei Hai Mohabbatein (This is Love)

ID Extra and Crime and Investigation channels

Just started watching Allegiance, so far its great!

Favorite Crafts

I like all kinds of crafts and DIY's. I am always up to learn something new. From candle making to frames, perfumes and face serums. Anything really, I love puzzles as well

ALSO....

Thanks to my husband I love cars, soccer (football) and gaming

I support Manchester United and my favorite game is Assassin's Creed

Ideas of what to send....?

Anything that is unique to your country. I love to learn more about where you live! Things that I would not get here where I live, I'm always up for trying new sweets and chocolate from different countries. I love coffee and teas would be nice. Post cards but it has to do with your country (scenery, places etc)
Letters are always welcome even if we aren't in a swap together. The longer the better lol I am a good listener

Washi Tape Craft items Pattern paper - hard to come by around here unless I order online or art shops Stickers Masks Tea and coffee Chocolate! Lol

I'm not a lover of cats but if I get sent anything with cats I will past it on to someone who can put it to good use

Mailing

UPDATE!!!:

Sooo it's happened again and our postal service is having "internal issues" I haven't received any mail or packages I have ordered in almost 2months!!

My mail guy has advised that they aren't sure when it will be sorted out, so I haven't taken on anymore swaps as I don't want to keep anyone waiting. Please if you haven't received your package let me know, I have been a bit slow on answering as I have been on winter holiday sorry about that.

I will replace any mail that hasn't been received, please let me know. I have noticed that even though I may send out mail at the same time not everyone gets theirs not sure why but I will remedy :-)

Please know that I will never flake. I will try my best to get everything sent out before time. The postal services here in South Africa are really slow so if I don't rate you please don't think bad of me, I will rate everything as they come.

Also I will send all mail by Airmail as it is the fastest way, it is said to take 2 weeks but if it is longer I do apologize. Sometimes I order packages that get to SA in a few days but take a month to get from the postal services to my box!

I do check my mail every weekend so will do my best to rate asap. If you have any issues with not getting your mail please message me and I will sort it out for you :-)

Can't wait to hear from you!

PS: Our postal service has been on a "go slow" lately so if you haven't gotten your letter/package please let me know before eating me. I will find out and find a solution or I will resend.

Here is a beautiful verse for you!!

Ps 18:1-3

I will love thee, O Lord, my strength.

The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my tower.

I will call upon the Lord, who is wothy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.

Enjoy reading these very special verses and have a very special day!!
