I work as a database programmer and multi-purpose geek in the "IT-Speicher" in Regensburg, Germany, and toy around with unconventional r/c aircraft, aerial photography and some other odd digital photography techniques in my free time.
I do have a website but for the moment it is horribly outdated.
I'm into Openstreetmap and Geocaching also; these combine well with Geohashing expeditions.
I now rather frequently visit hashpoints on any day (or during the night, if necessary) if I find the time, and the coordinates happen to be reachable from Regensburg by bicycle, including the corners of the neighbor graticules:
I can be found idling around in #geohashing most of the time, and I've built a program to generate Maps and Statistics about graticules and expeditions on the wiki.
Been there...
