Sarah wrote a piece on her blog about the expanding world in which she lives, starting with her earliest memories in which the street she lived on was her entire universe to being a world traveller with friends all over the globe. Although I’m not nearly as travelled as Sarah is1, I thought I’d give […] →Read more
In that last 7 days, 3 of my friends successfully defended their PhDs!
