Tobias is visiting.

SGSA Oktoberfest 2002

Gary from the Stanford German Student Association board.

Arrived in Stanford, Land of the Free

Ok, finally starting my PhD in Scientific Computing and Computational Mathematics. Below Constantin and me at some random event with free food and some soft drink (alcohol being very problematic, you see.)

Beachcomber Island, Fiji

Very relaxing. Can walk around it in a few minutes. Low crime rate! A bit like a gated community. Paradise! Native entertainment in the evening.

On the way back, I met the bus driver that had taken me from the airport to the ferry. He invited me home, introduced me to his family, and cooked a nice dinner (chicken rice). Many peoples are wonderfully hospitable.

Quitting Goldman

Today I handed in my resignation from Goldman, Sachs in London. Time to do some other fun stuff. I'll miss my great colleagues (though not necessarily GOB_MUSH_INSTREAM_IGNORE_COMPLETELY).
