About Me


I mark the swaps as sent as soon as I drop them at the local post office. They might be postmarked with the following business date.


Hello,

My name is Jess. I was born and raised in Mexico City but moved to the USA in 2000, when I was 23 years old.

I love postcards and cute stickers. Don't get me started on fine and extra-fine pens or notebooks, specially the dotted or grid notebooks.

I started collecting postcards when I was about 12 - 13 years old. My first postcard was from a very dear cousin, with whom I have remained close throughout my life.

A few months after receiving my first postcard, I met someone from Spain. Another cousin and I became this person's tourist guide for the next few days before he returned to his country. He sent me about eight postcards from different European countries within 4-5 years.

Ever since then, whenever I hear a friend or relative will be visiting a city or country I have never visited, I ask them to please buy me two or three postcards. "You don't need to mail them; bring them back with you. I'll even give you money to buy a couple."

That's the best way to guarantee I get at least one postcard from anyone's trip.

Throughout the years, I've collected over 200 postcards. Some have beautiful pictures of animals, landscapes, or both. Some are from museums or landmarks, a few are handmade, and some are silly or cartoonish. I love each of them!

I am very proud of my collection, but I only know a few people who travel internationally. Also, it is not so easy to find postcards these days. I see stickers everywhere (funny, cute, and not so), but postcards, barely. With your help, I can expand my collection.

Thank you, and have a great day!

Jess


DISLIKES: Zombies. I have zero problems with vampires, werewolves, or any other mythical character... but I have zero patience for zombies!

Comment: Hi Jess, sorry for being slow to rate, life (work) has been manic lately, but it's Easter weekend and I have four glorious days off work to relax, enjoy myself and do the things I want to do, like swaps. To answer your question, I did try to make Chimichurri, I'm not sure I made it very well, but it was delicious and as we're both Vegetarians it was served with charred Cauliflower steaks (don't hate me 😀) Your story is amazing, such detail in a memory, especially of something so traumatic. I have never been in an earthquake, and I can't imagine what it must be like. It doesn't sound real, like something from a movie. Thank you for sharing with me. Catch you soon, Happy Swapping Cathy.

Response: Thank you for the heart! I hope the Coraline sticker made it. You should be able to remove the washi tape and place it wherever you want.

Comment: Thank you for the swap cards and extra, Jess. What a beautiful part of the country you live in! Your pretty hand made envie arrived with both sides completely open, but luckily the contents hadn't fallen out. It looks like you used some glue tape that didn't hold up. Just wanted to alert you. Thanks again for the lovely postcards.
Response: Hi there! I am sorry to hear the glue didn't hold! I am glad all the postcards made it to you! Thank you for letting me know about the issue. It was a craft glue for paper... it will go to the trash bin as soon as I get home this evening. I am glad you liked the postcards. Take care!
