23/F/USA Looking for penpals around the globe to share language and culture~

Hey there! 24/M from Delhi, India. I'm working as a Web Developer, though I was majoring in Mechanical Engineering before I dropped out.

Here's some random things about me:

I was born and raised in the beautiful valleys of Guwahati city. I had an affinity for books and music, growing up. Few things felt better than than a stack of new books with their captivating smell and exciting cover pages.

Suffered from an extreme form OCD for two years in college. It fucked my life up for a while, but another year later I realized it made me a whole lot of awesome.

I did guttural vocals for a metal band. My friends tell me we sucked. I believe them! (Except for the lead guitarist, there's unanimous agreement about his guitar playing skills).

Love reading, and writing! Here's something I wrote a while ago: https://cresco.quora.com/Dont-judge-me-for-this

There's so many things that interest me. Psychology, history, philosophy, computers, physics, ..... it's an unending list!

I'm probably the first one to tear up while watching an emotional movie(or TV or Anime) scene. Oh and I love Animes ( and also Mangas but I've started reading them only recently).

One moment I'm wondering what I am, who I am and why I am and the next moment I'm trying to figure out the bigger pastry out of two. It's kind of funny.

Sometimes I feel guilty and pretentious, other times I think about things I would say if I was to randomly perform stand up comedy for a crowd, unprepared. Often turns out funny in my head.

I also have a huge sweet tooth, and the variety of sweets in India is just bonkers. Though they are wildly different in taste and kind from the ones that you're probably used to. And most of them are last only a couple of days before they "go bad".

And here's a silly selfie I took 7 months ago: http://imgur.com/a/mTblp

I saw @etherealwildflowers's comment and I suddenly had this thought. If you guys are in, we could do a 3 way pen pal thing. We'll have to figure out how but it would be fun.

Peace and Love!
