Hello, I’m here to have fun and enjoy swapping postcards.

I’m not here to strive for perfection. If I can’t send something out on time, I’ll try to let you know, and I offer the same grace to others who communicate.

In case the site goes down, contact me through my tumblr.

Postcard Preferences

I’m happy with whatever postcard you choose, but if you’d like ideas (in no particular order):

• Postcrossing meetups
• Watercolors
• Anything related to my hobbies or interests
• Cards with gold or silver foil (shiny is great...maybe I’m secretly a bird)

Favorite colors: - Blue (all shades especially medium to dark shades) - Purple (darker shades) - Grey

Mailing & Communication Notes

• I usually mark items as sent once they’re in my mailbox
• There's usually a short delay before they’re postmarked
• I currently mail items mostly on Fridays

If you don’t receive something, please let me know so I can help resolve it.

It’s not sustainable for me to be constantly active here; I have real-life responsibilities.

Please Don’t Send

• Drink powders (hot chocolate is the exception)
• Loose decorated scraps used for scrapbooking or junk journaling

A Note on Personal Writing

I sometimes write about my life, thoughts, and feelings, ranging from casual to serious.

If I share something personal and you’d like to respond, I kindly ask that you do not post about it publicly on my profile. Please reply privately (via message or snail mail).

Hobbies & Interests

• Writing (original fiction and fanfiction, various genres)
• Learning languages: Japanese, German, Hindi
• Sudoku
• Astrology & tarot
• Lexicography & linguistics
• Math, engineering, research
• Stationery
• Video games (roguelikes, strategy, RPGs, visual novels, otome games)
• Escape rooms
• Guinea pigs & dogs

Languages

Languages I know to any degree: - English - Hindi - German - Japanese - Spanish (studied in high school; no longer actively learning, but still remember pieces)

* If you know any declining or endangered languages, I’d love to learn about them in your card.

A Little More

I rotate between postcards, tarot cards, and Vedic astrology stars. The Vedic aspects are part of my Indian culture.

I used to enjoy reading but have been dealing with burnout for a long time. Frieren helped break that cycle, and the healing continues.

Random fact: I collect keychains. One subcollection are souvenir ones that swivel around an axis.
