Hurray, it’s Postcrossing’s birthday today!! 🎉 Sixteen years of postcards and friendly connections all over the world feels like a long, joyful adventure… one that we cherish immensely.
All these global ties have felt extra meaningful in the past year, and we’ve heard from so many of you, letting us know how much you appreciated having a happy hobby during these rough times. So our big thank you to all of you out there, feeding mailboxes with nice mail and spreading some joy in times of social distancing — you are what keeps Postcrossing going. We hope you’ll have a brilliant day, and treat yourself to an extra nice postcard, or a slice of cake! 🍰
The other good news of the day is that a new Postcrossing-themed stamp from Austria is being issued today! Designed by Theresa Radlingmaier, 165,000 of these have been printed (in sheets of 50) and they should be available in Austrian post offices and their online shop today.
If you’re in Austria and manage to find some of these shiny new stamps on your local post office, do share some photos of them with the rest of us on social media! We’d love to see how they look on your own postcards.

Sending Happy Birthday greetings to all Postcrossers, everywhere. This is my 12th year to share in the celebration and the Austrian stamp is like frosting on the cake...maybe for next year, the USA will join those countries already on board, with a Postcrossing Stamp also.

Congratulations to post crossing team and all fellow postcrossing members. Post crossing is and continuous to be part of my life and is such a wonderful journey for last 6 years in creating more friends across the globe.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and THANK YOU SO MUCH for bringing people together from almost all over the world. Wish there was a way to reach out to the poorer places, too, where even the price of a stamp is too much to afford. Maybe the community could fundraise money for a project "reach out to the world with cards and stamps"?? Just an idea. Like, for instance sponsoring such a project in schools??
Happy sixteenth birthday Postcrossing, and thank you for all the happiness you bring.

FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS POSSCROSSING DESDE CATALUNYA
Happy sweet 16 dear Postcrossing.
Sunny greetings from holidays in Greece on the lovely island Crete.
God bless you guys . This is my favourite hobby, it has opened so many doors for me. I have made so many friends, visited places I’d never thought I’d go to (Aland island I’m looking at you 💙), places that were on my bucket list (Ola Portugal💛) and some I didn’t even know exist (yes I’m looking at you tofte and filtvet 😛💜) , and this hobby brings a smile to my face , especially know with the dreaded Covid-19 years . I can’t wait to start going on meetups again . This year a few years back I was singing off key happy birthday to you in Greek . I’m now humming the Norwegian tune or trying to… 😂🤣, in honour of this great day, and because Honestly that birthday of yours was fun . Keep up the good work. Hugs to all , phoebe
Happy birthday! You are really making a difference in the world! Your letter today via email was very touching. Wishing you all the best. <3
HAPPY HAPPY SWEET 16! Thank you so much for all you do, and for creating this wonderful way to connect, especially during this pandemic. Here's to 16 more years, and even more! :) <3
Dear meiadeleite and all you other mates, thanks for all the joy you bring into my life, congratulations and a big, big hug.
Happy Birthday to you,
Every time I send a postcard or receive one I think of what your tireless work has meant to me and since I don't have words to adequately express that I'll simple say your work has gone a long way toward bringing our fractured planet back together -
All my best to the entire team. Take special care of yourselves and yours.
Bert
Wow! 16 years! What an amazing contribution to the world! Thank you for allowing me to be part of it. Congratulations!
happy birthday! <3
You folks are the best, especially during the year we have all just gone through. It is like having Christmas every day that we get mail.I’ve made many friendships over my last seven years of PostCrossing and learn something new every day ( I just learned about eel weirs this week!) I’ve also been fortunate to meet several Postcrossers in person in the Netherlands and Czech Republic and each one was a treasure. Hopefully I will be able to attend an international Meet-up before I’m too old, and maybe with good fortune to meet Ana and Paolo in person some day. You would be great nominees for the Nobel Peace Prize! Love you!
Happy birthday! 🎈

This is just the greatest gift you have given us.....and is especially appreciated during these strange times in our lives!! I call this

So SWEET SIXTEEN....HAPPY BIRTHDAY ...and may we all continue to be kind, share and enjoy this marvellous gift you have established for us!!
Happy "Sweet 16" to Postcrossing! I think more people should join Postcrossing! :)
