Moldwin's 2002 Travelogue

Some of the sites that I had the opportunity to enjoy on science-related travel in 2002. There is a joke that scientists are the worlds poorest jet setters. It is true. Science is such an international endeavour that you often get the opportunity to see places, meet people, and try wonderful cuisine while you are doing, discussing, and planning science. Note that I like to experience the "wild" places on Earth. Many colleagues travelogue would show the places and sites of the worlds great cities. To each their own. "In the woods, is perpetual youth" Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nature, (i: Nature; Addresses, and Lectures)
