happy birthday, gram!

It's my grandmother's birthday today - Happy Birthday, Gram!
We went to Antarctica together earlier this year - Gram's seventh continent and my fifth. I decided in the middle of the trip, in part because of the natural beauty of the places we visited but even more so because of all the amazing and adventurous people we met, that I really wanted to move abroad for a while, and that's what got me started on NZ research, and...the rest is history.
