Relocation break
My partner and I decided to move to Vienna because she received an individual grant that provided us with a longer-term perspective. During this break, I dedicated myself to intensive study of German (reaching B1 level), spent a month visiting my family in Mexico (after not seeing them for 3.5 years), developed new networks in the city (currently I am an affiliated fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies), and spent more time with my child.
