[edit] About me

Hi everybody. As you may have gathered, my name is Joanna. I live in Watson, Canberra, Australia. I used to live in Melbourne, and will be visiting every once in a while, so I may also be hashing there.

I have now geohashed in 3 states in Australia: ACT, NSW, VIC.

I frequent #geohashing under the nick joannac. Come by and say hi :)

I will usually bring at least one puzzle to any hash attempt.

[edit] Wiki stuff

I am one of the wiki admins, so I'm the one responsible for clogging up recent changes with deletions when I get bored.

I keep logs of things to do at Category_talk:Tagged_for_deletion and User:Joannac/Todo, and wouldn't say no to some help (hint, hint). ;)
