− | I'm | + | *I'm from [[Mannheim, Germany|Heidelberg, Germany]]. |
− | + | *I stumbled upon geohashing in 2008, finally going on my first expedition on [[2008-10-22 49 8|October 22nd]] when the coordinates fell close to my university. | |
− | + | *I soon discovered that (a) I knew practically nothing about the region I had already lived in for years and that geohashing is a fun way to discover the unknown and (b) getting to nearby hashpoints can make for a great [[Walk geohash|running workout]]. | |
− | + | *I've since walked on roughly 1/3 of my expeditions. I've reached about as many hashpoints going by train, mostly if the coordinates led me to interesting places (farthest train expedition: [[2009-03-26 48 10|Neu-Ulm]]). I've cycled to a few hashpoints and used a car for even fewer. | |

About Me
- I'm from Heidelberg, Germany.
- I stumbled upon geohashing in 2008, finally going on my first expedition on October 22nd when the coordinates fell close to my university.
- I soon discovered that (a) I knew practically nothing about the region I had already lived in for years and that geohashing is a fun way to discover the unknown and (b) getting to nearby hashpoints can make for a great running workout.
- I've since walked on roughly 1/3 of my expeditions. I've reached about as many hashpoints going by train, mostly if the coordinates led me to interesting places (farthest train expedition: Neu-Ulm). I've cycled to a few hashpoints and used a car for even fewer.
Achievements to Get
It's always nice to win an achievement along with a successful expedition. For me, some are more desirable than others.
- Walk to as many hashpoints as possible. For a complete list of all my walk hashes (successful or not), see here. (already earned: 21 times, failed: 5 times, cumulated distance: 321.1 km)
- Travel some distance to a hashpoint using the power of an animal. (not yet earned)
- Get a (nontrivial) regional or reverse regional achievement. (earned once, level 2)
Things to Do at Hashpoints
- Combine geohashing with guerilla gardening.
- Revisit old hashpoints and document how the place changed (the above point makes revisiting particularly interesting).
- Clean up the hashpoint area.
- Fly a kite at the hash.
- Play Ingress
- Leave a hashmark.
- Leave a hashmark big and durable enough that it can be seen from space. Then wait for the next Google Earth imagery update.
