Hi I'm Rishma! I'm looking for a snail mail penpal + anyone who wants to exchange little trinkets & crafts! :)

I'm a recent college grad who works in tech now (and loves it for the most part -- always down to chat about new tech releases/trends). I love to read, explore new crafty hobbies, organize things, relax, and get outdoors when it's warm.

R&B, rap, and pop are my favorite genres.

Sci-fi: - Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir - Scythe by Neal Shusterman

Fantasy: - Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe - Anything written by Sarah J. Maas

Romance: - Anything written by Ali Hazelwood - Lovelight Farms by B.K. Borison

Thrillers: - A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson - Ace of Spades by Faridah Abike-Iyimide

I read books in all formats (physical copies, Kindle ebooks, and audiobooks)

Comfort sitcoms (Friends, HIMYM, The Office, B99, Abbott Elementary), Psych, BBC Sherlock

Cross stitching, scrapbooking, junk journaling, mini scene sticker books, painting/coloring by numbers, diamond painting, making beaded jewelry, pottery painting!
