Geocaching

During my last business trip, on the way home, I had over six hours of overlay in Hong Kong. I had to add Hong Kong to the list of countries where I found a geocache. It was a bit more complicated than I planned, but done. The location This geocache is placed close to the international airport in Hong Kong. On...

Does placing a geocache under a busy rail line comply with the rules? When I saw the spot on the map, that was my first question. Then, as we were driving towards the coordinates, I immediately understood how that can be possible. You will see it. Location We found this geocache in a small village in Austria. Recently, we decided to...

While talking to many geocachers at different places I learned that most of them do not log DNFs. I always take the time to explain to them why it is important to log it. The most important part is that there is nothing to be ashamed of. What is a DNF? DNF is an abbreviation used in the geocaching world for...

Geocaching in a foreign country is always challenging especially when you need to search around air conditioners. This geocache I found somewhere in Taipei, Taiwan. It should be an easy find but you know how it goes. The location This geocache is somewhere in Taipei City, Taiwan. I was in Taiwan for a few days due to my work. I...

We often browse around in busy cities. When we end up in a new city I always check for geocaches in the neighbourhood. This is exactly what I did and at one of the busiest corner I spotted a geocache. It was a few meters away so my wife had no choice but to follow me to the geocache. The...

I found this geocache in Taiwan. It is part of a series placed at the public libraries of Taipei. When I mean it is in the tree I really mean it. I am not sure how the cache owner placed it into the tree. The key ring holding the geocache is around a root of the tree. The location Taiwan has...

My work took me to Taiwan once again. I arrived somewhere in the afternoon so I decided to get more tired I go and find a geocache. The day was also missing from my matrix. That just gave me even more motivation. The area I stayed did not have anything in walking distance any longer so I had to...

Here comes another geocache I found along M6 in Hungary. Most geocaches along highways in Europe are a simple park and grab hides. Driving for hours is never the best thing to do so you need a reason to take a break. Finding a geocache can be one of these purposes. There are highways which I travel regularly so...

I love birds so any geocaches related to them in any ways I give a favourite point. We found all different bird house geocaches. This one already had many favourite points so we were expecting something what we found. Of course we were not expecting it up so high. The location This geocache is located in the neighbourhood of the Veluwe...

I could call it a typical geocache hiding technic by now. I remember the first of this kind I found in a parking area in Germany. Trust me it took us a while then. And it is still challenging because it can really fold into the area very well. This one was hidden in the Netherlands opposite to a...
