Yes, I get to travel, for the first time after maternity and a pandemic, to a nice place in a lovely country. Having strong and mixed feelings about it.

But as you may know, #academia is ruled by a "#publish or #perish" scheme, and publishing is *hard*. A conference like this (~150 attendees) has a core part + some workshops, but at the end of the day it is the core that counts for your research performance evaluations, and that had a 23.5% success rate this year.
