~VERY IMPORTANT~ ** I am going through big life events now, very depressed at the moment. I am so sorry for the people whom I failed to do what i have promised. The people I have not reated yet. And the people who I have not send my swaps to. I understand there are no excuse for that. I am sorry. Please feel free to rate me down. I am sorry to have disappointed you.**

I need to apologize that I haven't send out the swaps yet. I have been very busy recently as I was moving away from the States back to Asia. Being on the plane alone spent me three whole days, and before that I was on a trip to the east coast. I thought I would be capable to manage one single electronic swap during the trip, but it turned out that most of the days I was too tired from the trip that I was not able to do anything but rest. There are also other private reasons that drained my energy and caused me not to be able to do that swap.

I don't even have time to change my profile status and tell people how I am doing now. Thank you so much for asking, it wasn't because of you that gives me the chance to respond to this matter.

I am very sorry for not sending out the swaps in time. Right now I am working on other urgent matters while trying to get myself settled down back home. But I will try my best to finish this swap by the end of the year-- yes, by the end of this week.

Hey I'm Jess from Taiwan and my Chinese name is 芝嘉(Chih-Chia). You're welcomed to write my name in Chinese if you know Chinese. It'll also be alright for you to just write my English name. I study Biomedical Engineering at Hong Kong. However, I am currently at St. Louis, MO for the exchange semester at the Washington University in St. Louis

I enjoy traveling, in 2016 I visited the UK, Ireland, Italy and Morocco during the summer vacation. In 2017, I was in Japan for a study trip and Singapore for my internship. Those were really great times and I would definitely like to go back again!

I have been a Postcrosser for 3 years. Sending and receiving postcards and stamps are my biggest hobbies so far haha:-D

I also enjoy watching Youtube videos. My favorites one to watch are Hikakin from Japan and the SNL sketches from the States.

~Also Important~

One thing I do need to point out (and apologize) is that I usually rate other swappers slightly later. See, when the swap is with multiple users, I like to rate when I have gotten stuff from everyone. So I prefer rating all at once. I do make sure I rate everyone though. All the cards and stuff that I received and not rated are kept together to remind me that I have not rated them yet. I shall manage to rate within two weeks of receiving. If you need me to rate you ASAP, please notify me and I will do that for you.

Happy Swapping ;-)

Mostly English songs although I live in a Chinese-speaking country. Recently I simply listen to the popular songs on Spotify. I don't really like the hip-hop nowadays though but I do appreciate the older ones.

I also listen to some Korean music, and some Chinese songs as well. The newer one that I enjoy the most is RongHao Li.

Other than that below are some of my favorite artists that came to my mind:

The xx / Jess Glynne / Oasis / Gorillaz / Damon Albarn / Blur / Nirvana / RHCP / Disclosure / Clean Bandit / LANY / Eminem / HONNE / Green Day / Kygo / Ed Sheeran / Radiohead / Linkin Park / Pearl Jam / Temple of The Dog / Three Days Grace / The Used / Limp Bizkit / Coldplay / Justin Bieber (Only the newer songs though, I hate songs like 'Baby' and 'Boyfriend')

Yes, if you know these artists, you will understand that the stuff I like are quite random XD

• Holiday cards, especially ones that are special in your country!
• Birthday cards around January!!! Y^w^Y
• For my Japanese friends, I would love to receive Gotochi cards or Mailbox cards from the place/nearest post office you are staying!
• For friends in the US, if you happened to have large letter cards (thank you Hyshu for telling me its name!) like the ones in this link from your town/city/state. It would be awesome if you can send them to me :-D
• Hedgehog/ Cute animals.
• Posters/people.
• Nature (my partner loves the sea!)
• Your city/country/town view.
• Watercolor/ illustrations.
• Old postcards/ vintage postcards/ black&white cards
• If there is any cartoon/fictional character that was made from and well-known in your country, and you happened to have a card for it, do feel free to send them too! I am curious about these characters from around the world.
• Just learn about Lantern Press postcards and I love them as well!
• Rainbow/LGBT pride themed postcards

I love animated movies! Below are some of my favorites...

• Big Hero 6 (I have had special memory with it so I am obsessed with Baymax)
• Wall-E
• Moana
• Despicable Me
• Minions
• The Boss Baby
• Wreck It Ralph
• Secret Life of Pets
• Sing
• Zootopia
• Detective Conan movies!!!

And these are some movies that I like aside from animations...

• The Last Word
• Guardians of the Galaxy 1 + 2
• Her
• Mommy (Xavier Dolan)
• Table 19
• Anomalisa
• Malefecient

That is all that have came to my mind for now... Please feel free to recommend me some movies like you like, I do like most stuff except scary movies.

I don't watch a lot of shows... the following are some that I do watch...

• Modern Family
• The Big Bang Theory
• Transparent (Still binge watching... this one is great!)
• 2 Broke Girls

I used to watch Grey's Anatomy but stopped at the 2nd or 3rd season.

Below are some things that I would like to receive:

• Washi Tapes
• Postcards (If you are sending me blank ones, I would like those that are illustrated/ designed/ vintage/ B&W)
• Postage Stamps (Both used or new)
• Puzzles (Especially Sudoku puzzles)
• Stickers (All are welcome, but I am especially looking for those that are rectangle so I can use them to hide the barcodes on the postcards while sending.)
• Other stuff that you would like to share ;-)

If you are swapping Washi tape samples with me, please send some thin ones (≤0.25 inch) if you have them. I find them incredibly useful in decorating the side of postcards! So an ideal washi tape swap for five sample would probably have 2 thin tapes and three regular ones for me. :-)

Thank you so much for sharing with me!!!

I like cute stuff, and I like cartoon characters! Below are some characters that I especially like:

• Baymax!
• Snoopy

• Disney tsum tsum characters
• Maruko Chan
