I've just left Toronto with a backpack and laptop. For the next 4 months I'm going to be "cramming" — getting as much of life's contents as I can per unit time.
The Plan
I'm starting off by traversing the length of Java, Indonesia (part I). Then, in a burst of insanity, I'm interning for a startup in Beijing where I will have to learn a) Chinese and b) computer vision within the span of 3 weeks (part II). For the rest of summer, I'm interning at Google X — back in my home of Mountain View and back in my home domain of machine learning and neuroscience (part III).
Motivation
Find things that are beautiful, do things that are difficult.
