rainy days in rome are somehow making me so nostalgic

To fall in love is to create a religion that has a fallible god.

My father has gotten really into flashback Friday. He posted these pictures of myself at about 5 years old and my little sister at about 3 (our baby sister was still a bun in the oven here) at the Exploratorium circa 1995. I figured this was the perfect opportunity to thank you for sparking such an interest in me as a child. There are no other scientists in my family, and no other girls around me were interested in science. I really credit family trips to places like this for turning the wheels in my brain. I’m now pursuing my master’s degree in environmental biology at the University of Eastern Finland, and both sisters have chosen nursing. Thanks for all the science, Exploratorium, and please continue to inspire!
