Women in tech, engineering and beyond?

Hey ladies, my friendship pool is very small these days. It would be great to get to know some women out there who feel the same way and are open to new connections. I'm UK based, 34, studying to become a specialised engineer. If you have a background in tech or engineering, i'd love to have more people to talk to about those subjects, but it's not a necessity.

I keep pretty busy, but I need my down days too. I have 3 cats (typical lesbian) and one "creepy" pet, I read a lot of non-fiction, I'm a little unhinged if you can tolerate that (haha), single as a pringle, adore and worked with vulnerable animals and very attune to nature.

I'd like to learn about you. Tell me about why you care about the the things you fill your days with, what you value in friendships and relationships, come at me with your most controversial opinion. However you'd like to say hello is welcome by me. Lets get chatting.

34 F UK - Where are all the tech ladies?

Hey, coming at you here as an engineering student, I'd love to chat about our chosen fields and what makes you passionate about it. I'm from the frozen part of the UK and whilst it's late (past 1:30am) I can't help but find myself here hoping someone else is also a night owl or from another part of the world, ideally Europe but I'm open to connections from anywhere.

I play games when time permits, mostly solo and almost always modded, but I'm also really open to playing and trying games with people too. Right now my list of games being played are overwatch (not great at the new one but I'm a veteran player), project zomboid, planet coaster 2, Oldschool rs, Stardew and Corekeeper.

What am I looking for? Connections with genuine people and no ulterior motives, I'm a gay woman and I don't have many mutually gay friends so it would be nice to get to know others in the community who game and work or study in tech, but it's by no means a requirement!

If you would like to chat and hopefully we get chatting regularly, or play a game I will reply to you in the comments or feel free to send me a dm introducing yourself or letting me know about your interests and tastes. Have a lovely night/morning!

34 F UK - Where are all the tech ladies?

Hey, coming at you here as an engineering student, I'd love to chat about our chosen fields and what makes you passionate about it. I'm from the frozen part of the UK and whilst it's late (past 1:30am) I can't help but find myself here hoping someone else is also a night owl or from another part of the world, ideally Europe but I'm open to connections from anywhere.

What am I looking for? Connections with genuine people and no ulterior motives, whether it blossoms into something else is entirely down to time and compatibility, so I won't throw a list of wants and needs at you. I'm a slow burner.

I have three cats (typical) and a not so fuzzy pet that lives in a small tank, not a beloved pet by most peoples standards but he is to me. I'm used to having unusual pets, having owned a few exotic animals back in the day.

I enjoy a range of music and used to play a few instruments that I still own. I play games when time permits, mostly solo and almost always modded, but I'm also really open to playing and trying games with people too. I have a large social battery for people I care about and a shorter one for the outside world, I wouldn't call myself too much of an introvert in public but I am internally. I love to travel, summer (the irony of loving the sun and living here), good food and experiences, adventure, reading, the smell after rain, journaling, the gym and chilli!

I won't take up anymore of your time here by talking about myself, so if you would like to chat and hopefully we get chatting regularly, I will reply to you in the comments or feel free to send me a dm introducing yourself or letting me know about your interests and tastes. Have a lovely night/morning!
