I had a great time visiting Girona in Catalonia to participate in this year’s Nuclei in the Cosmos XVIII conference. I gave a talk about my recent paper on low-metallicity nova explosions and presented a poster about the 13N(α,p)16O experiment with CRIB.

I enjoyed catching up with old friends and meeting new people thoughout the week. Thank you to my collaborator Jordi José for organizing such a successful and engaging conference!

A trip to Catalonia is not complete without tasting a paella!
