Unglobalized bodies
I spent some hours of my weekend planning on the Summer trips. Three months ago, my plan was to split the summer into a long stay in Indonesia to do research and fun and a long stay here in Tempe to write. But two months ago, the whole plan was changed as one rare opportunity to go to a place I'd always wanted to go came. A conference in St Petersburg Russia!!! I cannot and shouldn't miss it. And it also means that I might stop by Amsterdam the Netherlands as I'll fly with NWA/KLM — I could always make events in the Netherlands of course. My former professors, colleagues, are friends are there! It means I need to get Russian and Schengen visas. Which means I need to go to LA to apply for a Schengen visa at the Netherlands consulate as they only serve in-person application! Ugh.
