My home coordinates are plusminus 48.53,9.06 in the city of Tuebingen, Germany. I was born in Erlangen and lived for a long time in the north-western part of 49,11 where I still am from time to time.
I want to geohash mostly by bicycle or public transport, but I will make short detours (less than 5km one way), if a geohash is near to a route I'm driving by car anyway.

Geohashes
Finally I started with geohashing after years of just watching and checking the coordinates like once every few months :)

My current goal is to go at least once per month on a geohash.
Geohash Equipment
- Garmin etrex Vista (sadly I can't find it at the moment)
- Geohash Droid (Android App written by CaptianSpam
- Headlight LedLenser H5R.2
- Gudereit Touring Bicycle
- Samsung Galaxy S1 (I should really buy a decent smartphone/camera, the pictures look like crap, especially when it's dark)
- Peugeot 107 (cheating, only if too near to skip!)

For an easy overview take a look the awesome map by NWoodruf or use the table below. It contains the first successful hash for each graticule. I only included graticules for which I know I will be travelling through or staying in at least for a few days per year and thus there is a small possibility to get them, if the algorithm is kind enough! Those with brackets are even more unlikely to get anytime soon, a star (*) means I attempted this graticule but failed.

Furthermore, I'm travelling for work sometimes, so I might be able to get some other graticules mostly in Germany, too.

Bash Script
As I always forget to look up the coordinates, I hacked this (very ugly) bash script to let a daily cronjob inform me per email, whenever a geohash is near to me:
#!/bin/bash maxdistance=15 a=$(curl 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?lat=48.53&lon=9.06&nr=1&map=0&size=240x240&t=&date=&unit=km' 2>/dev/null | iconv -f 'iso8859-1' -t 'utf8' | sed 's/<br>/\n/g' | sed 's/ / /g' | fgrep 'km' | cut -d ':' -f2 | cut -d 'k' -f1 | sort -n | head -n 1 | cut -d '.' -f 1) echo $a if [ $a -lt $maxdistance ] then echo 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?t=1&nr=o&unit=km&zoom=11%2F5&zoom=8%2F2&type=roadmap&lat=48.53&lon=9.06&size=240x240' | mail -s "geohash is near to tuebingen ($a)" USERNAME fi
I just parses the small hash inquiry tool from Ekorren in the most complicated way and sends the mail via a local mailserver :)
