Hello! I'm aimee. I used to live in Winchester, UK, but in autumn 2018 i moved to Copenhagen. I am grateful to Macronencer for reminding me that geohashing is a thing, and excited that it may get me out visiting parts of Denmark that i wouldn't otherwise see.

🇩🇰 Jeg kan også snakke dansk! 🇩🇰

Map of geohashes

a map of Sermoa's xkcd geohashes (green for coordinates reached; red for coordinates not reached)

I have been on 21 geohashes in 6 graticules and met 14 other geohashers.

Sermoa achieved level 3 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement

by visiting coordinates in Swindon, United Kingdom and 3 of the surrounding graticules.

007	2009-09-10	Litchfield, Hampshire	This was a Midnight Geohash meticulously planned by Macronencer who took me and Mapaholic. It was fun creeping through the tiny village late at night.
