Howdee.
I, the '''[http://wikitravel.org/en/User:Big_Adamsky Big Adamsky]''', am:


* a multilingual university student of '''[[Cartography]]''', '''[[Human Geography]]''' and '''[[International Relations]]''' 


* hooked on '''[[adventure tourism]]''' and '''[[ecotourism]]''' — particularly to remote '''[[List of islands by area|island]]s''', '''[[archipelago]]es''' and '''[[peninsula]]s'''


* a '''[[Wikipedia:WikiLove|major contributor]]''' to '''[http://tools.wikimedia.de/~interiot/cgi-bin/contribution_tree?namespace=0&user=Big%20Adamsky&dbname=enwiki_p these articles]''' and the uploader of '''[http://tools.wikimedia.de/~interiot/cgi-bin/contribution_tree?namespace=6&user=Big%20Adamsky&dbname=enwiki_p these images]''' [[Image:Minor Barnstar.png|thumb|right|For all of your great (minor) edits, I award you the '''Minor Barnstar'''! --[[User:Khoikhoi|Khoikhoi]] 03:58, 10 February 2006 (UTC)]] <br style="clear:left" />


* nostalgic about '''[[Animated_television_series#1980s|1980s TV action cartoon series]]''' and '''[[German-style board game]]s''' 


* moderately amused by '''[[WP:UA]]'''
