6 years since my post-PhD bike tour in Patagonia. The friction between being career oriented and pursuing that ephemeral research career, while also being constantly tempted to sell all my stuff and travel the world is real.

I ended my PhD completely burned out and a husk of a person. Spending 3 months in a tent cycling and hiking every day, rising and sleeping with the sun, was so restorative.

I got this email a few weeks ago.

I wasn't sure whether to post it but I want to highlight the many ways in which predatory practices surround the working life of modern academics.

Furthermore I can imagine people from marginalised groups on temporary contracts feeling this is perhaps a good use of their own money to raise their profile, which sickens me.
