Hey everyone...here is my address and instructions if you want to send me something. Please know that the letters and packages will be opened. Copy and paste this address on the letter/package. Thanks.
School Address in China:
The No.1 Middle School Attached To Central China Normal University (华中师大一附中)
TAYLOR BARTLETT
No.1 North Road of Tangxun Lake, Wuhan East Lake Hi-tech Development Zone,
Hubei Province, PR.China (湖北省武汉市东湖高新技术开发区汤逊湖北路特1号) 430223
Instructions for Sending Packages/Letters:
1. Air mail takes about 12 days, the next option is by boat which takes 6 weeks. Air mail is a little pricey, but well worth it, right?! =]]
2. Mailing through the US post office is perfect (You do not need to go to a “special post office”).
3. Expect the packages and letters to be opened. Usually everything will make it to me in the end.
4. At the post office you will fill out a customs form that goes on the outside of the package stating what is in the package. The more vague you can be the better! For example, if you're mailing coffee, mac&cheese, and a brownie mix, write "dry food goods." For meds, etc. write "toiletries." Religious materials or reading materials write "books". If it's a cd, write "music." DO NOT send any religious materials that are in Chinese, it will not get to me.
5. Never send anything in wrapping paper because it will certainly be opened.
6. If you do send me something, it is best to let me know so that I can keep an eye out for it.

Hey Taylor,
Good to hear from you.
Some other great ambiguous shipping terms are "personal effects" (that covers most anything) and printed mat. (for any type of literature).
