End of #EGU25!
I've had such a great week, meeting lots of new people and presenting my research to an international audience.
Hopefully some follow-up conversations in the coming weeks!
Going back to the office next week will be a big change of pace filled with much more grey skies!

Lots of organics today ✅️
Even comfier shoes were required (and thankfully were packed) 😅
One more day to go then back home....how nice of the rare sunny British weather to leave again just as it's time to go home?
