~ Friendly life update ~ ~June 2024 ~

I took a few months off from swap bot to travel and enjoy life. I went to Europe for a month 😊.

As of June, it has been a month since I've been home. I've moved into my new home and begun my summer internship that I'm loving. 😎.

I'm looking forward to doing more swaps and pen-paling with my friends on here soon! 😁

Please be kind and patient with me If I still need to rate you. If I have not rated you, please message me. I'll be happy to rate. Have a lovely day 😺.

ME 🎀👩‍🎓📚🌷😺💌:

Hi friend! 😀 It is great to meet you!

My name is Marina and I'm a neurodivergent. I'm a Marketing and Communication university student. 👩‍🎓.

I am 25 years old, but my soul does not reflect my age. Hope that never changes 💞.

I'm a small-town Latina girlie who lives on 20 acres in South Texas🏖🏝🌞👩. It is my happy place I share with my parents and my pets. 😊.

I love animals. 🐾🐶😺🐮🦄🐴🦓🐰🐹🐔🐬🦝🐼🐨

I have a little pet shelter at my home (unintentionally) 🙈. I have ten pets😅. 3 dogs and 7 cats.

I originally had only 5 pets(3 dogs and two cats), but I fed a stray who gave birth to four kittens and did not have the heart to kick her and her babies out. 🤣

I like all things kawaii! 🥰 My favorite color is purple💜 and pink🎀. I love Squishmellows, Sanrio, and any cute miniatures and collectible items.

I love doing arts and crafts, friendship bracelets, coloring, mini verses, reading, baking, finger crocheting, capturing moments in my life that make me happy📸, pen paling, and watching anime. 🎎🎞🎬📽📺

My favorite holiday is Halloween, and my favorite seasons are fall and spring. 🌺🌻🌷🌹👻

I'm still pretty new to Swap-bot (joined in November 2023) but it has quickly become something that I love doing. 🥰

I enjoy spreading happiness and love to others and this is a great way for me to do that. 💌💖 Thankful for that!😊😊

I'm not picky. I'll love anything you decide to give me!🥰

Thank you in advance!!💖

These swaps make me happy and I always look forward to receiving them 💌😊.

I always swap items that are picked and packaged with love. 💌🤗

I aim to send only stuff that I would be happy to receive and always try to look at my partner's profile to make their day the best I can. 💝

If you do not get my swaps or are unhappy, please message me before rating. I'll be happy to resend!

I always rate after opening my swaps, if you do not see a rating yet. Please reach out to me, I'll be happy to rate you. 😃

I'm looking forward to making friends and even becoming pen pals too 😊. I'm also happy to do a private swap with others. Just shoot me a message! 💌

Happy swapping and have a great day!🤗

Please tell me about yourself in your letters or postcards you send me. I love learning about my swap partners 😊.

If anyone has any postcards to spare, I kindly ask for them. I'm trying to collect postcards from around the world and from all 50 states 😺. Bonus points if they're cute or vintage!

Got any cool pins or cool state / country coins lying around? I'm always on the lookout to grow my collection of little treasures. Even just a couple of extras you don't need would make my day.
