How I spent my time in Fall 2025
As always at the end of the semester, I check the breakdown of my time. Below, you can find the breakdown. I spent some time on conferences – one at the beginning of the semester, and we organized one here in Ecuador (I actually didn’t travel much), and then I also gave a few online presentations at events that I lumped under the conferences section. I spent a fair amount of time working on proposals, and Fall is my teaching-heavy semester with teaching duties in Ecuador and the Netherlands.
