About Me

A German currently living and working in Linz, Austria. Mostly feet, bicycle and train-powered. Usually too busy to reach many hashes, but trying to catch at least those that are close by.

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 drop me a note and I'd be happy to join.

More to follow, eventually.
