Description:

New Year is fast approaching which means everyone in Japan is preparing their postcards for January 1st. I was able to buy mine while there in October, so you know the tradition is taken very seriously. =D

For this swap you will send your partner a post card with an image of a sheep on it, as 2015 is the year of the sheep. The card can be handmade or store bought as long as there's a sheep on the front and best wishes for a terrific year on the back. Cards are to be sent naked and don't forget to include both your name, and the swap name.

I reserve the right to ban at will, with no explanation, but promise to not be a jerk. PM me if you have any questions, or leave them in the comments. =D

Since you were recently in Japan, you probably know the answer to this question: is the upcoming year the year of the sheep or the year of the ram (male sheep)?

Now I'm even more confused: I looked up the year I was born in, and the web page I consulted said the year of the sheep, with "goat" in parentheses. Goat? That's a whole different animal!

lol I actually don't know! Here's what Google had to say.

As to the ram or goat issue, that's typically a regional thing. If I come from a more pastoral area, sheep are more likely than goat in rockier areas. You go with what you know. =D
