Thoughts and travels of Patrick Lam

January: a month of teaching three courses, and two trips

Well, that was a whole month. Arrived in Canada on January 6. Teaching ECE 459×2 and SE 465, and had two weekend trips the next two weekends. A bit less busy now.

January: photos post

Finished 2022 photos, but didn’t have much time to process more photos otherwise. One more January 2023 trip to do and then a huge step forwards in time.

December: Last month of sabbatical and two trips

Back on the move, with a trip to the South Island and a trip to the Pacific Islands (French Polynesia), before returning to Canada to teach in the Winter 2025 semester.

An extremely smooth travel day

3 segments, 3 reservations, 3 checked bags, 2 countries, no hiccups.

December: photos post

Wow, I had a really active December 2022. Almost done with pictures from that month now.

November: almost all in Wellington

In a contrast from October, all but the last two days in Wellington.

November: photos post

This month, I processed 50% more photos than usual (and produced other content as well). Easier to do when not travelling and not actively submitting papers.

October: world tour continues with Flagstaff, Waterloo/Toronto, Pasadena, and Winnipeg

Two conferences with three presentations, three tournaments, and lots of hours in flights.

October: photos post

Didn’t process nearly as many photos as in previous months, but got a few more sets in near the end of the month after travel was done.

September: final versions of papers, course prep, Auckland, and Japan

Mostly in Wellington except for a weekend in Auckland and a week in Tokyo (the start of a busy travel month). Finalizing papers, reviewing course notes.
