CURRENT MISSION

do all the physics, explore all the davis/sac/bay area/etc.

ABOUT ME

i'm a physics grad student at davis - before that i was interning at berkeley lab in physics. and before that, maine!

i'm an independent vegetarian who enjoys exploring in general and in particular investigating little-known, unassuming areas with me, my camera, and perhaps some good company. i really enjoy thoughtful, insightful conversation but also appreciate quiet and solitude. i love to take pictures of places and people, to try and capture the beauty, interesting moments, and oddities around us. my photography website is http://www.meganlongphotography.com if you'd like to check it out.

PHILOSOPHY

do not treat others as you would not want to be treated yourself.

swimming above or under waterfalls rates pretty highly.
