One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Standing at the top of an old castle on an island off the coast of Ireland, with a 360 degree panorama of water, watching the dark storms roll in miles away on a sunny day. Or maybe eating an entire sheep's head in Norway. Delicious!

Teach, Learn, Share

What could I share? Well I write about science for a living, so I have all sorts of strange stories tucked away in my brain. I also love teaching people to dance, and I can offer a ride on my new motorcycle.
