About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Who says you can't fit a PhD in-between years of arduous travel, partying and relaxation??

ABOUT ME

I have traveled (for pleasure) perhaps more than all the other graduate students in my laboratory, combined. But I still submitted my dissertation on time (just about)! I guess we have different priorities in life ;) I love seeing and doing new things and meeting interesting people!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short. Don't waste it on people/ things that don't mean anything to you.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Wandering around medieval German and Roman villages. Experiencing the force of the Iguazu Falls. Glacier trekking in Patagonia. Paragliding over the Sacred Valley in Peru.
