Given all those blessings, being paid by the university to do what I enjoy doing anyway (read, think, and plan) is a bonus.
The family menagerie currently consists of the chooks, Aung San Suu Kyi, our independent Burmese cat who is being held under house arrest, and Sascha the Saluki.
My favourite ways to spend my time are activities with the family, growing fruit and vegetables in the back garden, reading, and playing the 'cello.
The sporting activities I enjoy doing most are cross-country skiing (yes, there is usually enough snow in my part of Australia to do this, in winter anyway, although global warming is seeing this diminish), and cycling. Cycling is how I get to work. Like most people, I find it difficult to motivate myself to exercise, so riding the 16 kilometers (10 miles) to work is the best way for me to stay fit.
My father was also an academic and took the family when he went overseas on sabbatical leave. This means that I was lucky enough to live in a number of different places while growing up, including Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, Manchester in the United Kingdom and Uppsala in Sweden.
