A frood who really knows where her towel is! Even though forgets to pack the said towel more often than a handful of books :)

But if we are serious for a moment, my name is Kate and I am the techy person that makes stuff appear here on 80days&counting. Offline I’m pursuing my Ph.D. in computer science and enjoying all the free traveling involved in a scientific career. I love languages and traveling alone or with Olya, with whom we’ve been friends for more than 14 years now! <3 I mostly enjoy backpacking and hiking, and I dream of visiting all the continents someday. INCLUDING Antarctic, although I hate the cold! :)
