+FliesHeartWorms 1 Posted December 6, 2020 Hello from California! We're a pair of cachers operating for about 1.5 months now. I remember my uncle telling me about geocaching 18-19 years ago, and now that I've taken it up I've realized he must have been one of the originals! Loving that caching connects us all in this secret hidden world - both hidden caches and hidden spots that we wouldn't otherwise notice. Thanks for the community! Quote Share this post Link to post

lumin298 0 Posted December 7, 2020 Hello! I'm Lumin, and I've been caching for a couple months but first heard about it around 6 years ago from a friend. It took me a while, but I'm glad I started caching From Auckland, New Zealand, but hoping to eventually find caches all around the world. Quote Share this post Link to post

+Czareknster 0 Posted December 20, 2020 Hi, My name is Czarek and I'm live in Poland, I got interested in geocaching a few days ago. I completely missed the fact that such a thing could exist. Despite the fact that 15 years ago I finished my studies in Geography. What I like about geocaching it is a way to spending time is some kind of mystery and adventure that I am very drawn to. I wish You a nice day, bye bye Quote Share this post Link to post

MsGumshoe 0 Posted December 31, 2020 Hello Everyone! My name is MsGumshoe and I’m from Connecticut. New to geocaching… I love being outdoors; exploring, discovering new places… Investigative nature at heart. I love a good mystery, along with a challenge, but I can get cranky if I can’t figure it out. There have been times when I have seen people in the woods that looked like they were searching for something and after reading some of these threads now, I realize they were the cachers and I was the muggle Curious if most of you use your cell phone map for coordinates or if you have a separate GPS device . Also happy to see that there is a list of Geocache acronyms available so I can get the lingo down. Looking forward to new discoveries! Quote Share this post Link to post
+ceedeetee2020 0 Posted January 3 Hello Everybody, My name is Chelsea and I'm from California. I am new to Geocaching, I just started this last summer in May. I love exploring new places, solving riddles/puzzles (though I'm not the best at it) and learning the interesting tidbits of info about the surrounding areas. I can't wait to hide a cache once I gain more experience. I currently use my cell phone to find the caches but, I've been curious about getting a separate GPS unit instead, is it worth it? Looking forward to getting started Quote Share this post Link to post

katndoggs 0 Posted January 3 Hello from Connecticut. I've known of geocaching for several years. Just started 2 weeks ago with my 7 year old niece. So nice to have an wholesome, fun activity to do with her. Her dad will enjoy it too. But, I've found, even with the little we've done, I really like it. Now to find little treasures to leave at the caches... And MsGumshoe, from CT - I love the name Quote Share this post Link to post
