      Going to astronomy camp (www.iayc.org) and meeting 70 other people from all over the world who loved astronomy as much as I do.
      Also meeting Jocelyn Bell Burnell – she gives the most inspiring talks. 🙂

      The most inspirational thing that ever happened to me is when i was voted by my high school teachers as the most well behaved boy out of 800 students during my final year of high school. This made me feel that it pays to be kind, it pays to be respectful and it pays being courteous and responsible.

      When I met the team I currently worked with, I properly realised that science can be a big mixture of all the subjects, and doesn’t have to be just ‘physics’ or ‘chemistry’ or ‘biology’ – I realised I could start mixing anything up and coming up with new ideas.
