This is a beautiful post, I’m so glad that you have both encountered such warmth and hospitality on your journey so far. It’s inspiring to hear about the possibilities for creativity and learning that you have discovered through such generosity. I can certainly relate to the experiences of pressure and competitiveness within mainstream academic settings, and your ideas have made me think about how a spirit of openness and empathy might be better nurtured within the university – a big challenge, but one that is very much needed! All the best for your journey, Annabelle
Hey Annabelle, thanks for your generous comment and reflection in this. It would be wonderful to have more of this spaces and opportunities within academia, what a different place it would be! Any other suggestions of how this might happen? Good luck with your own journey through these spaces and hope you meet generosity and openness on the road.

What a wonderful read, Udi–thank you! Very interesting and introspective in terms of the reality of what you had experienced in academia and what you are finding now being in all these different environments with amazingly interesting people!
