Question: Seeing your work history on your profile, do you like to work in a variety of different countries? and does it affect your work in a positive way?

I love travelling so science is perfect for that. Jobs in science are usually on short term contracts of about 3-5 years at a time so it gives you the opportunity to move about and it also gives you a better understanding of how different labs do science so it is encouraged within science to travel. It is harder to stay in the same place for many years at a time!
