About

My name is Jonathan Buchholz and I’m a sophomore at Middlebury College studying International Politics & Economics. I’m on a quest to understand the world a little more fully with each passing day, so if you have a lead on something you think I might find interesting (books, articles, websites, movies, etc.), drop me a line at [email protected]!

I’m also currently looking for summer 2025 internship opportunities. Connect on LinkedIn?

Here are some of my affections:

• The Deep Life
  • Cal Newport reminds me to live and work more deeply and gives practical examples on how implement his advice. I recommend reading his books — they’re a refreshing take on “productivity.”
• The Economist
  • Thank you, Middlebury College, for giving us access to The Economist. “The world in brief” blows Wikipedia’s current events portal out of the water
• The Pudding
  • It seems that every time I visit pudding.cool, there’s an incredible new interactive web-based story with data that inspires me to be more creative. It’s hard to explain what they do — maybe check out the site?!
• Strava
  • Social media that makes my life better, not worse, and pushes me to become a better endurance athlete

Why does this site look so boring?

Simplicity and speed considerations dictated the construction of buchh.org. If you’re interested, you can take a look at the source code.
