There are lots of different opportunities and so many different avenues you can take to work in astronomy and science in general.
Working with teachers and astronomers across the country was great for my personal knowledge. Working across times zones was another fun, but interesting challenge. Learning how to work with completely new people, being in a new place, learning new material, all of these experiences help shape me better as a person.
For me as an educator, it was really rejuvenating to come out here (and bring a student with) and dive into actual astronomical research.
