+eatsleepcry Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi my name is Sarah, I am 29 F and I am new to geocaching. I started today by getting the paid app and membership, found my first cache today I managed to find 1 out of 4 which was cool. got some geocoins coming soon the plan is to travel well, cache hard, explore and share and I hope to start my first geocache in the near future. I have 1 Suncompass Geocoin Antique Gold and also a Geocookie Geocoin. The suncompass I aim to leave somewhere in the uk before I go away The cookie will be the most traveled, that will travel to Thailand and back before it gets released in to the wild geocaching I find is a fun way to get in shape, get outdoors, and it brightens up a rainy day Thank you Sarah x x x Quote Link to comment

+Calypso62 Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Hi Sarah, Welcome to the addiction. I was in the UK a couple of years back and found some great caches. I especially enjoyed those I found in London. I really hope you enjoy the many and varied adventures it will take you on. Cheers from Australia. Quote Link to comment
+eatsleepcry Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Thanks everybody. I plan on going caching in the city today and I stocled up with a few items to leave. I find myself obsessed with geocoins, i browse shops, i have two coins ordered and I bid on one from USA Its a eagle with wings. Geocaching has brought happiness and fun in to my life. Every day could be a cache seeking day, I aim to sign several hundred before I go away for surgey in several months time. When I am safely back and recovered I will start again. I really do want to say a great big thank you to the great people of geocaching. I believe it brings a lot of people fun and happiness, great for people of all ages. I will be reccomending geocaching to people I know. Quote Link to comment

If you haven't checked it out you'll probably be interested in the Geocoin Discussions forum. Geocaching while traveling is probably the aspect of this game that I enjoy the most. So far I've found caches in 8 European countries but have yet to make it the the U.K. I am hoping to add Turkey and Ethiopia to the list of countries (bringing my total to 19 countries) in which I've found a cache in the beginning of May.

+vw_k Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Hi Sarah, welcome to the addiction. Be sure to check out the "United Kingdom and Ireland" forum and if you're on a well known social networking site there are lots of regional groups and a UK group on there too. Quote Link to comment
+Chief301 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I will be reccomending geocaching to people I know. An excellent idea, but expect everything from blank stares to "So what do you win?" I've tried to get people I know interested in Geocaching, but they mostly think I'm nuts. Quote Link to comment
