Farrah’s Field

A field to wander, a field to wonder.

I’m Farrah Xu—a student, researcher, and observer of life. This is where my study notes, wandering thoughts, journeys, and photographs take root.

Two paths through the field

Study and life, growing side by side.

01 / Study

Questions, methods, and working notes.

Notes and unfinished questions across statistics, economics, and neuroscience—records of what I am learning and how my thinking changes along the way.

Browse Notes

02 / Life

Things noticed, carried, and kept.

Essays, journeys, and photographs gathered from everyday life: places I passed through, moments I wanted to keep, and thoughts that asked for a little more room.
