Me at my birthday geohash 2011

About Me

Until January 2014, I lived in Switzerland and my home graticule was Bern, Switzerland. I didn't have a car, so most of the geohashes I tried to reach by foot, bike and public transport. Thereafter, my new home graticule is Innsbruck, Austria, but I live in the most north-western part of the graticule (and therefore in Germany). Consequently, I will also try to reach geohashes in the neighbouring graticules (W: Kempten, Germany, NW: Augsburg, Germany, N: Munich, Germany).

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: Innsbruck, Austria
