Retreat
The Department went on a retreat alltogether, discussing fundamental questions of our research programme, way of collaboration, strategic mission and so on.
Daisy, the dog was there too and had a very positive impact on our mood.
She is also the reason why some of the group drew me like this:
Have a wonderful week!
Kind regards
