About me

I live in Heidelberg, Germany and will visit hashpoints reachable by bike or foot (I like running long distances) or those reachable by train. I don't own a GPS yet.

Future Plans

A trip from May 15 to 23 will lead me to and through many graticules: Bad Brückenau, Germany - Paderborn, Germany (only the airport, with no time for detours) - Palma, Spain - Napoli, Italy - Civitavecchia, Italy - Marseille, France - Barcelona, Spain - then back to Bad Brückenau via Palma and Paderborn. I'll take my running gear with me, so there's a small chance for me to take a Mediterranean graticule's virginity.

After that, I'll buy a new bike to replace my rusty three-speed Hollandrad. This will increase my radius of operation greatly.

Wiki Stuff

I like drawing xkcd-ish images for achievement ribbons. See my gallery of achievement images. I keep looking out for newly created achievements that need a ribbon image, and for old images that could be improved.

To-Do List
