About me
I'm just another one of the many students at UBC.
I'm primarily going to be around the Vancouver graticule, but if the coordinates just don't work, then I'll likely try the Surrey and/or Victoria graticules (or possibly farther).
I'm current in Würzburg on a co-op term with thepiguy. While here I'll be geohashing in the general area, though I may consider going much farther, since I'm hoping to explore Europe a bit while I'm here! Also, since I'm working, I have more spare time than while I'm in classes, so you can expect to hear more from me again!
Update (June 4, 2009): I broke my wrist/arm on June 2, so I won't be able to geohash much for a while. I may try some walk geohashes if they're close, but I'm not supposed to do much in regards to activity for a while.
Update (June 14, 2009): The surgery went well, and I'm currently recovering. I'm still not allowed to do much in the way of activity, but I may be around if possible...
Upcoming excursions
- I'll be doing many weekend geohashes, particularly if they're not too far off. I'm not in shape to the degree that thepiguy is, but I still enjoy biking, and hope to make it to several in the area! It's a great way to see the country.

2009-05-27 Würzburg Thepiguy and my hashiversaries! Unfortunately in the middle of a field, but we got to just over 100m before no trespassing! I'm counting it as a success since I could easily have reached it, but respected the farmer's crops. Officially, some would say it's a failure.
2009-05-28 Würzburg In a forest up a very steep bank (which Danatar found a way around, but Thepiguy and I just went straight up).
2009-05-29 Bamberg Not in a forest! In fact, it was on a small road by a golf course!
2009-05-30 Stuttgart In a forest beside a firing range.
2009-06-02 Bamberg In a beautiful field! However, I became a geohashualty on the way home...
