  During my MS studies, we were in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic and my research partners and I could not share a car to the research location, which was 1.5 hours from my house. Back then, I studied goat browsing behavior (why were the goats eating some plants). Since I did not have a car, I had to camp in a remote location surrounded by goats. It was a great experience.
