Me at my birthday geohash

About Me

I live in Switzerland and my home graticule is Bern, Switzerland. I don't have a car, so most of the geohashes I will try to reach by foot, bike and public transport. When I visit my parents, I also have the chance to go to geohashes in the graticules Halle (Saale), Germany and Leipzig, Germany. Apart from that I will try in other graticules where friends of mine are living.

Normally I use the geohash map provided by carabiner.peeron.com: Bern, Switzerland
