I only register cards I pick up in my PO Box, no exceptions.

Hi all! I'm Ash, a university student from the culturally diverse Washington DC area, and I study architecture and computer science with a data science emphasis.

I mainly enjoy sports, especially ice hockey (I'm a stats nerd and am passionate about the game, especially strategy and coaching), traveling (road trips mostly), and video games. I'm curious about other interests too; I've dabbled in a handful. I'm currently learning Spanish and Korean -- I use Spanish regularly at work. Even though my family's from the Philippines, I was born and raised in the US, so I barely speak, but can understand some Tagalog and Ilonggo (Philippine regional language) as my family speaks them at home.

Aside from being a student, I work in construction and volunteer as an ESL (English as a Second Language) tutor at a local English center.

I enjoy tourist and cultural postcards because I see the world through them, but I also enjoy receiving other kinds.

✅Suggestions:
✨touristy/culture/traditions - single/multi-views; photo preferred for views. origin country much liked, especially for low IDs
✨sports - any sport 🆗! College or pro sports preferred (athletes, coaches, teams, venues, events: Olympics, World Cup, etc.)
✨video games & esports - genshin, honkai star rail, pokémon, tower of fantasy, overwatch, LoL, valorant, RPGs, etc.
✨art/illustration/photos (esp. digital art): surreal, futuristic, fantastic, kawaii, pusheen, 'aesthetic;' for anime/video game art - no preference
✨urban fashion/streetwear
✨modern aviation: airliners, fighter jets
✨luxury cars
✨ads/free, folded, handmade, upcycled 🆗💕 they're always welcome

❌Please avoid:
unwritten cards (🆗 when agreed in swaps)
trypophobia

Don't stress if you can't find anything in my suggestions. I'm chill with many themes, even risqué, NSFW, controversial, weird, and oddly shaped/textured ones. I'm also cool with envelopes, especially when sending multiple contents.

Most I favorite are non-preferred themes, so no need to mention finding cards from favs!

I love handwritten cards! I always read the message side first. If you're stuck on what to write, I want to know something about you, your place (please recommend what to see/do), your interests, what's in mind, recipes (!!), embarrassing moments, worst fears, US/Washington DC stereotypes, video game recs (esp. indie), your fav sports team, or anything! I'll leave it up to you. ✍🏼

Hispanohablantes: por favor, escríbeme en español.
한국어 연사: 한국어로 조금만 써주세요.

Unless there isn't any space, please NO overly short messages like the "happy postcrossing" only type. They're so disappointing to see. Don't wanna write? Feel free to draw or decorate it however you like.

Lastly, don't forget the ID (& if you want, date, time, or weather). Never apologize for sending me a non-listed theme. It's OK!

Let me know if you want to swap cards or souvenir magnets. I can also send past DC meetup cards
