Just a short placeholder for now.

I live in Noordwijkerhout, located in the 52, 4 graticule and am an addicted xkcd reader as of December 2010. I'm also an active geocacher, almost but not really addicted.

• Engine fixed? I made it to 2017-05-12 52 5 in an area that was visited quite often a few years ago.

• Another one for 52, 4 that could not be reached on 2016-08-16 52 4. It looked so promising.
• No trespassing for 52, 4 on 2015-12-24 52 4. I could have known because this is water filtration area in Wassenaar.
• Reached a hash in Noordwijk (or is it Noordwijkerhout?)
• After a long pause, the 52, 4 hash on 2015-02-18 52 4 landed in Amsterdam, only 2km from my place of work. Formal attire!

Goals

Achieve an actual Saturday 16:00 meetup.
Create own hash calculator (why? being nerdy).
