In September I went to a very cool island close to Mauritius 🦀 It's called Rodrigues. Besides nice beaches and corals you can also find awesome Aldabra Tortoise 🐒

This was a super fun afternoon at JAG robotics. We set up the two robots in no time and we all got excited about how easy it was. It would be fun to implement this further!

Another day another hike! Brisenhaus 2.0 but this time it felt like a spring hike rather than a winter hike compared to last week. Halfway through I put my snowshoes away :)
