Just like when I first started blogging for the Quantum Diaries one year ago, I am again on my way traveling through Europe. After 12 hours of flight and 15 degrees less, I am slowly getting used to Europe again (even though the temperature shock seems to have taken its toll).
This week, we’re in Munich, where I have spent my PhD years. I’m refreshing old friendships (even though most of the people who were there with me are now scattered somewhere around the globe) and enjoying the Christmas mood of the town (with real snow as decoration).
We’re shuttling back and forth between the Arnold Sommerfeld Center of Ludwig Maximilian University and the Max Planck Institute for Physics, also known as “Werner Heisenberg Institute”. There, they have put us into the Heisenberg office. Maybe spending time in this room will transfer some scientific insight and inspiration on me? One can always hope…
