      I would say very committed, sometimes maybe too much. I moved from Amsterdam to London for my work and I spent 6 weeks all alone in the USA for a project. Although these moves are of course big adventures that I also enjoy, I gave up a lot of time with my friends and family for it.
      The thing for me with science is that the projects I’m working on fascinate me so much that I find it very hard to stop working on them. I think that makes me very committed. But I also enjoy it!
