Hello!

My name is Kiona I am 26 and from Washington state. I have been on swapbot before through my mom’s account as a child. I used to be in a lot of snail mail for kids as well. She still participates but now that I am moved out and on my own I figured I’d make my own. I’m a Capricorn sun, Leo rising, Pisces moon. For those who are also into astrology.

I’m a dog mom and a first time mom to a boy! I am engaged and have been with my partner for almost 10 years. My baby is one, more than likely I would be happy to receive stuff for him before myself :)

I grew up in a Christian and “witchy” family. My grandparents were super Christian and my mom not so much, however that has opened me to being open to learning about all walks of life. I’m not into politics or anything with hardcore followings/fan bases like that really. I’m just kinda here existing lol.

I am Native American and Mexican(supposedly, my dads side is now thinking they are Indian idk much about him) and I love learning about other cultures.

I enjoy making jewelry, I took a huge break for about 10 or so years but have gotten back into it now that I have a bunch of free time and will probably include something if it’s a handmade swap with that. I used to craft a lot because I grew up on this site but haven’t in more years than I can count.

I have chronic kidney disease from a genetic mutation and will eventually require a full transplant by the time I’m 40. I am coast based but travel to Seattle about once a week for medical stuff haha. I do love dark humor and joke about ALOT so that’s kind of my personality as a whole. I’m not easily offended. We’re a pretty PNW household through and through.

I have SO many interests almost too many to list but here are a handful:

•Pop culture (I’m super up to date on everything all the time… I’m chronically online🤣) •Tea! I used to swap tea like crazy. I also love hot cocoa and other drinks like cider, water packets, etc •HANDMADE stuff! Cards, posters, anything really. •4th of July and Halloween(I’m also a Christmas Eve baby, so Christmas is a given lol) •Figurines/quarter machine figures •Van Gogh •Sanrio/kawaii •Chemistry/Science related stuff •Astronomy •Spiritual/religion things (I’m open to learning about ALL!) •Poetry •Croc charms •Squishmallows/plush in general •Vintage items(newspaper clippings, recipes, trinkets, art, etc) •The 1975 (my all time favorite band since 2014) •Post cards •Type written things •Stickers (all kinds!) •Washi tape •Painting/drawing •Music(ALL music too) •Mythical creatures/lore •Animals in general (I wanted to be a vet)

My favorite color is purple, although I really enjoy blue, orange, yellow and green as well.

I am an enjoyer of so much it’s hard to list it all lol. The only thing I’m not super into is anime I only have a few that I like :) I’m also not a huge fan of white flower type scents but literally anything else is fine!! Flavors are all fine, outside of blue cheese which I don’t see being an option for anything on here LOL

if you have any questions you can always ask I’m honestly super easy going and love seeing new stuff. I’m really not a picky person and would be happy with anything. I love seeing what people themselves enjoy as well. Between me and my fiance, nothing will ever go unappreciated in my house!!

I am a fan of all music! My top 5 artists are electric light orchestra, the 1975, Fleetwood Mac, and ABBA. I have tattoos for all of them.

Blue cheese, white flower scents (jasmine mostly), tuna LOL

I don’t have a lot of physical dislikes, it’s mostly personality related 🤣

My fiancé Tate enjoys: metal music(like… all genres and artists lol), playing the bass and guitar, guns, weed, sloths, capybaras, history, Garfield, comedians (besides Matt Rife? Lol), Mickey Mouse, dogs, his favorite color is black. His favorite food is lasagna. He was born September 16

My baby-His names Dean! He’s 14 months at the time of writing this. He enjoys ducks, dogs, cats, books, stickers, coloring, crinkly things, music!! He is in size 18 mo everything from socks to shirts :) he’s TALL. He was born June 29! He is eating all things and has no dislikes… yet lol.

I have a 6 year old corgi named Gidget, she is a princess through and through. She’s a retired show dog, so she’s stuck up BUT she got retired at 8 months because she was only bacon motivated LOL. We get her groomed and she enjoys getting her hair put in little bows, nails painted, bandanas etc. She always gets a little treat from us when we go anywhere.

Outside my household: My mom is a strawberry shortcake/carebear/garbage pail kids/rainbo bright/trolls/gremlins/sanrio/cabbage patch doll 80s kid through and through honestly lol. She loves washi tape, stationary, stickers, pens, post cards, skincare, horror, witchy stuff, weed, and she has 4 German shepherds.

My step-dad is from Mexico. He LOVES SOCCER, he has no fav color, he likes coffee, red wine, hot cocoa, Stewie from family guy, the home alone movies, the walking dead, and ANY sweet treats lol. He also loves fishing and cheesy typical dad jokes lol

My in laws- my MIL likes skincare and coffee(hates chucky), my FIL is almost the exact same as my fiance except he’s a huge gamer as well. My sister in law is 17 and loves pink, kawaii ANYTHING, Sanrio and overwatch. They have a little 1.5lb rat named Tucker. He’s old and stinky lol. They also have like 6 cats!
