== About me ==
−
Based in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne; have car and satnav, will travel.
+
Originally from New Zealand, the home of the William Webb Ellis Trophy, now living in Melbourne.  
  
−
If Yarra Valley, Eastern Suburbs or CBD locations come up, will definitely be up for an afternoon / evening visit, although dead reckoning at night with a crappy satnav has proved to be difficult.
+
In 2010, started hashing lots. Got injured. Stopped hashing lots. Shortly afterwards became a father, hashing was backseated for a while.

In 2015 / 2016 got more time, started hashing again.
  
−
== Why? ==
+
In 2016, got hit by a car, stopped hashing.
−
I work in a sedentary job at a desk, any excuse to get outside is good. Plus faithful companion [[user:Kozz|Kozz]]'s dog is always up for an ofactory investigation of the delights of Melbourne.
 
  
−
Particularly, I enjoy seeing parts of Melbourne and Victoria that I'd never otherwise have discovered. Classic case was [[2010-01-04 -37 145|Jan 4th 2010]] where an uninspiring satellite photo in Google Earth did nothing to indicate a hidden little gem of a park in outer Eastern suburbia.
+
In 2017, started hashing again.
  
−
Would love to do far more cycling or walking to hashpoints, but with a full-time job, it's difficult enough getting to the hashpoint in the carbon-spewer. In an attempt to mitigate this, from Feb 2010 onwards will progressively add distance to scoped hashes and walk in (ie stop 1km away from point).
+
== Why? ==
 +
Why not? I still work behind a desk, and I LOVE the outdoors, the further away from humanity the better.

Latest revision as of 02:55, 20 March 2024

August 2006 Flinders Street Station.jpg This geohasher comes from Melbourne.

About me

Originally from New Zealand, the home of the William Webb Ellis Trophy, now living in Melbourne.

In 2010, started hashing lots. Got injured. Stopped hashing lots. Shortly afterwards became a father, hashing was backseated for a while.

In 2015 / 2016 got more time, started hashing again.

In 2016, got hit by a car, stopped hashing.

In 2017, started hashing again.

Why?

Why not? I still work behind a desk, and I LOVE the outdoors, the further away from humanity the better.

Completed hashes
