Thoughts and travels of Patrick Lam

June: better late than never; so much work.

More normal life. Lots of teaching, some paper writing, not much recreation except for an overnight car camping trip.

May: first month of Spring term, so much teaching, focus on judo

Mostly teaching. I got off the plane from New Zealand, took the taxi back to Waterloo, got up early the next morning, and went to an OAC event at Rattlesnake Point. Back to normal life.

plam's travel philosophy

[Written March 2020. But it hasn’t been the best time to travel, so I’ve been waiting for a better moment. Now’s still not ideal, but maybe better.] SE student Rachel asked me for travel suggestions.

I’ll write about some of my best travel experiences so far. There is going to have to be flexing.
