Hello! I'm Tin -- short for Christine. 28 years old and working in a creative digital agency.

I like to write and doodle, and recently learning modern calligraphy. I'm fond of creating stuff to give to my friends. My yearly Christmas goal, which I've started last 2013, is to give gifts which I made instead of buying. I've made keychain bracelets and personalised notebooks.

I love the beach and have recently been certified in open water diving, so I am looking forward to seeing the beautiful underwater world.

I like to drink coffee.. a lot! I also like to travel - usually with my boyfriend. Saving up for New York 2016! My favorite season (which we don't have here) is Autumn. I just love seeing the orange-red-brown leaves.

Brooklyn 99, Friends, Grey's Anatomy. Basically, I like Rom-Com / Comedy TV shows.

Some of my favorite movies include Never Been Kissed, 10 Things I Hate About You, Romy and Michelle's Highschool Reunion and Almost Famous.

I like songs from artists I haven't heard of. And I'm clingy to my favorite alternative songs from the late 90's-early 2000's. My favorites include Incubus, Dashboard Confessional and Lifehouse.

Washi tapes, craft/printed papers, basically anything! I like collecting notebooks and pens. I also love collecting (and using) stuff in gold.. Pens, notebooks, paper, tapes, stickers etc. I'm into freehand calligraphy (using nibs), and brush calligraphy. It's my effective de-stresser! My 2015 goal is to start learning Copperplate.

I like doodling and writing song lyrics. Dogs -though I don't own one, I adore my boyfriend's puppies. Coffee - I drink about 2 cups a day. I love desserts too, especially cupcakes! I like lipsticks - My favorite is Mehr by Mac. I like personalizing stuff to give to my friends and loved ones.

Cats. I do like people who like cats, but I just don't like cats :( I'm also not fond of anime. I don't drink beer - unless it's flavored like watermelon or lychee.

Since I love to eat.. My favorite cuisines are Japanese, Korean and authentic Filipino. I love sashimi, especially salmon. I am not that fond of chocolates, but I love caramel! Whenever I eat at a buffet, my favorites are: duck wrap, steak, ice cream, cupcakes and CHEESE!

I like postcards a lot! I usually enter PC swaps and as much as possible, make sure that the PC I send is something my partner would like. It is very challenging though because the available PC's here in the Philippines are very limited.

As for postcards that I would like to receive: touristy spots from your area/region/country, modern/typography-play, anything cute especially with food, dogs, coffee, flowers, etc. Store-bought or handmade is okay, as long as it looks nice and unused.

I make it a point to rate within a day of receiving the sent item. I find myself always giddy when seeing received items in my mailbox :) If I have not rated you for an item you sent (which is unlikely once I have received it), do send me a message. As for our postal system, it usually takes 2-4 weeks after you've sent the item for me to get it.

I also do reach out to the sender if I have not received any item, before a 1 rating.
