Side Quests

Not everything I care about fits into a research project. Side Quests is where I write about the rest: life in Brazil, travel, practical experiments, and the ideas that help me make sense of the road I am on.

Living in Rio de Janeiro has given me a different perspective on home, work, language, and independence. Travelling by bike through Rwanda and Uganda with my father taught me something different again: progress is often slow, plans change, and the best parts are usually the ones you could not schedule.

Personal stories, travel notes, practical guides, and reflections on the experiences that shape my life outside software and research.
