To all the visitors of this humble user page, I say hi!

I am a 17 years old guy living in the small city of Trento, northern Italy.

I got to know geohashing on the 12th of August, 2012, and it was instant love. I really needed something to keep me occupied until the end of the summer. Trentino is not the easiest place to get around- it's all mountains around here, and some places might be quite hard to reach. On the other hand, though, Trento is on the bottom left corner of a graticule- this means I have three other graticules nearby should the location in mine be unreachable. Exploration might get quite hard for me, as I don't own neither a car nor a bicycle and until further notice I will have to rely on my feet and the public transport network (which is quite good luckily).

Thanks for visiting my page!

2012-09-20: In Albaredo, east of Rovereto. Deflowered Padova graticule!

Not-as-successful expeditions

2012-08-27: In a parking lot in Egna/Neumarkt. Had the wrong coordinates and thought it was inside a fenced garden.

Planned but not attempted expeditions

2012-12-14: Snowstorm struck in the morning causing transport delays, my timetable wouldn't allow me to go on an adventure.

Werther achieved level 2 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement
by visiting coordinates in Trento, Italy and 2 of the surrounding graticules.
  • Side note/shameless bragging: I could have claimed both land geohash and Public Transport geohash on my first expedition, but I lacked proof for those two.

Hidden goals

These are my ultimate achievements- they will take something like five years to accomplish but well, I like challenges.

1) Hashing once in every of the 217 Trentino municipalities (so far: 3)

2) Using at least once every Trentino city/intercity bus line, which are quite a lot (I don't know the exact number!) (so far: 2x Trento city network, 5x intercity network)

3) Using at least once every Trentino Trasporti bus (according to their website, there are 714 of them, just sayin': 13 so far)
