Octopods!

I have just learned today that I will have the opportunity to do my very own research project with an octopus while I am in Rostock. I am pretty stoked to be able to expand my research experience into an area with these very fascinating invertebrates! But I am also still very excited to learn more about the harbor seals with whom I am much more familiar :)


An octopus and my favorite photograph of a harbor seal by Henry Horenstein


I was also wondering if anyone had any good book suggestions for my plane ride and any down time I have over there? you can leave me a comment with some of your favorites! :)

  1. It's going to be an AMAZING experience! You're going to love Europe too! I've got friends in Sweden, England, Germany, Austria, and Italy; so if you want some local knowledge, give me a shout and I'll put you in touch!

    Books. Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction? What genre?

    1. That sounds amazing! I am trying to get all the information I can get about where to visit in Germany, so that would be wonderful!

      Lately I have been reading a lot of non-fiction, so I think I would like to switch it up and read some fiction. I'm really up for anything interesting :)
