Abstract: In this paper I try to present my field, combinatorics, via five examples of combinatorial studies which have some geometric avor. The first topic is Tverberg's theorem, a gem in combinatorial geometry, and various of its combinatorial and topological extensions. McMullen's upper bound theorem for the face numbers of convex polytopes and its many extensions is the second topic. Next are general properties of subsets of the vertices of the discrete n-dimensional cube and some relations with... (Update)
