GIT: Halfway Update

Image
Hello all! I am officially over halfway through my Great Ideas Tour of the Waterways of Western Europe, so t his is a brief update :) (Fjord in Flåm, Norway) This post was originally written on Sunday, July 2, 2023. I am publishing it now on the train journey from Oxford, England to Inverness, Scotland!  In my second visit to England along my GIT, I had a research meeting at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, appreciated wonderful art, reconnected with dear old friends, and gave a guest lecture on interdisciplinary approaches to modern wastewater challenges for a history of medicine course at the University of Oxford. In Scotland, I will be taking time to reflect on my Tour thus far as I hike the Great Glen Way, along the famous Loch Ness.  After Scotland, I will visit France again, then Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Italy, and Greece. I will return to the States in time to begin my Masters of Environmental Engineering at UA as a Graduate Council Fellow! More to come t
