Trillian-N7

Wow! What a lovely coin. It is great how it all moves.

Involved in Scouting in Australia (slightly different sections) from when I was 6 to 14. Then gave up because the troop wasn't too good anymore. Still wish I could have continued for longer.

Always a good method. Especially when I cache after work and I am wandering around in my work shirt for a known local surveying company. People rarely question it. Especially if I add a tape measure to the look =P Though people have very little idea about surveyors anyway. I have lost count of how many people have asked me whether I am 'taking photos' using the theodolite in the last six months.

The longest stretch I have cached for was 5 hours and I got 19. Unfortunately I missed out on some close ones to my route as I forgot to upload them =P At the moment I like to do a few when I go out as it is so much effort to drive into the city (and of course, the price of petrol). Also with uni it is easier to do a few hours of caching full on than to go out every now and then to get only one.

As I tend to cache a lot in the city, my trusty Gemini Panelvan. Cheap enough for a uni student to own, brilliant fuel consumption around town, small enough to park unobtrusively in random places. For the caches with harder tracks I occasionaly have to actually borrow my Dad's old Jeep Cherokee. However, that said I can get my Gemini into some off places (and get her out again )

At 17 I was out hiking and camping heaps, even though I didn't have my license. Now at 19 I have started geocaching and it is much more fun getting out and about than hanging around inside all day. Who cares what is cool? Having fun is much more important.

I am a surveyor and while I haven't used a tripod, I have walked around the main park in town in my surveying work shirt, clipboard and was measuring the bridge I was hunting around. People didn't look twice at me, as surveyors appear in the most random of places doing random stuff. I also had another one where I was looking around the local suspension bridge and so I wrote notes on my clipboard and told people I was studying Engineering and doing a project on bridge design...
