In my opinion anthropology is one of the greatest studies. It has a little bit of everything in it from biology to geography to history to sociology. It could be studying how we have evolved as a race to the culture of sport. The dictionary defines anthropology as 'The scientific study of the origin, the behaviour, and the physical, social, and cultural development of humans.' In my opinion this doesn't do this subject justice. It is an eye opening topic which engulfs you. Once you know anthropology is real there is no going back.
The way I heard about anthropology was through my mum. We were on a walk and we were discussing what I wanted to do at university and my life in general. All I could think of is learning and living with tribes so she told me anthropology sounded perfect and that was when my passion started. I've been lucky enough to travel all over the world and when you see the different beliefs, festivals, ways of work, you know that we are a fascinating species which needs to be studied.
So that's it. My dream future. Studying other people's lives and relating them to others. To some this may not sound like living your own life, but to me there isn't anything as wonderful.
Looking forward to watching your journey....exciting!
