      I’m very proud to have come this far, although I’m actually a few years older than some of my colleagues because I failed a year at University and had to re-take it. I have no idea what tomorrow will bring, but I hope I will make the most of it!

      I am! I have accomplished a lot more by now than I ever though it was possible back when I was a teenager and dreaming about being a scientist. But it is never over, every time some goal is achieved, many other possibilities and further goals show up. And that is the beauty of it 🙂

      Every time I have had a fairly good idea of what I would be doing in the next couple years, something incredible and unexpected happened and I ended up going in a completely different direction (and often different continent!) and it was all amazing. So I have a couple of plans on what I want to work with long term, but I am sure I will be surprised once more. I am ready for whatever comes!
