Gifts and tips are not mandatory or expected, but they are always appreciated.

I publish a wish list to give you an idea of my style and interests, and having it out there allows for spontaneity from those who really want to go above and beyond, rather than having to ask me for it, which can take away from the element of surprise, that, in my opinion, adds to the gifting experience.
 

While the list below is of things I enjoy already, I love trying new things and surprises, and, of course, all gifts are appreciated, no matter small, the gesture is truly meaningful to me.
