Had a very lovely time in Coimbra getting to know the connected past network, presenting my research, and exploring some very gorgeous gardens 🌲🌻🌼 Lots of exciting archival possibilities to be found as well!
A big thank you to Nathan Cornish, Ana Margarida Dias da Silva; Maria Teresa Gonçalves, John R. Schaefer, and Gabriel Tober for getting The Connected Past in Coimbra 2025 started with their exploration of plants, gardens, and modern farming through networks!
