About Me

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

Future Plans

Current status/plans: recovering

Achievements to Get

It's always nice to win an achievement along with a successful expedition. For me, some are more desirable than others.

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.
  • Leave a hashtag.
  • Leave a hashmark big and durable enough that it can be seen from space. Then wait for the next Google Earth imagery update.

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

Add yet unnamed graticules to the All Graticules list (constantly looking for remote or interesting graticules).

Still in Category:Ribbon image needed: Nanny consolation prize, Cliffs of Despair

Misc.
