== About Me ==
[[File:U+110DB.png|left|64px|sora sompeng letter pah]]
Currently living in and working near [http://www.duesseldorf.de/ Düsseldorf], Germany.  As a long time xkcd reader, I always wanted to start geohashing, which I  finally did in 2012.  Since then, I try to monitor the graticules close to my (current) location and go on a trip in case it fits in my schedule and mobility.  Unfortunately, it turns out that I'm not as active as I want to be.  In case you plan going on a trip in a graticule close to mine, please [[User_talk:Pah|drop me a note]] and I'd be happy to join. 

More to follow, eventually.
