My name is Alison Hansel. I am a Ph.D. candidate at Boston College, in the Philosophy Department(check out my favorite philosophers atphilosophers' field). I taught the freshman philosophy course at BC for several years (the origin of myfreshman writings page) and now am a more or less stay at home mother of twins (see ourbaby pictures). During my studies, I lived for two years in Munich, Germany where I met my husband. I really enjoyed living in Germany (see mygermany pages), but am really at home here in Boston.
I'm a big reader (check out somerecommended reads) and I love to play board games and knit (seethe game room andthe blue room for details). Finally, I have no fear of having opinions (seethe limbo of abandoned bridesandbackpages for proof), which I hope at least makes for interesting reading.
