From Geohashing


Bout Me

Lol-asg.png 35 / f / 52,13

I'm Janila from Berlin, Germany and have been a reader of xkcd for quite a while but just happened to stumble over geohashing July 2009. I'm a Math student at Humboldt university, and and don't have much time for geohashing during the semester :(

At the moment, I'm in Canada in the Toronto graticule for an exchange year at the University of Toronto till June 2011.

Bout the Nick

No, I don't just deem myself awfully important and heroic (well, only sometimes ^^) - I just think Neal Stephenson is a really great author

  • Hashcard achievement - looking forward to both sending and receiving, you can send me your adress if you'ld like
  • Globetrotters Geohash - I've been on all of the continents already, but I didn't know about geohashing back then :( But I'll just do it again, right?
  • Hobbit achievement - I'm a hobbit at heart anyway, guess that should be manageable this summer :)
  • Underwater geohash achievement - might be tricky, yes, but I wanna go scuba diving again anyway :)
