Blog 3: My Dream Job

I am not really sure what I would like to work in the future, because anthropology is a new field for me. Each time I am learning more and more new dimensions of the career and new job possibilities are opening to me. However, for now I think I have a preference for archaeological work. I imagine myself in the future traveling to different places, working in the field and discovering objects that will allow me to understand and rewrite history.

I am studying in my second year of anthropology, and from the third year of studies the university allows us to specialize in one area of anthropology, which can be: social, physical and archaeology. From that, next year I could enter the specialization of archaeology, and in this way, acquire the necessary abilities to be able to work.

With respect to the salary, I would like to have enough to live quietly and save for travel. I am not really interested in having great luxuries or a life full of material things, I just want to be happy with what I do, and I hope to be able to work in a place according to my ideals.

Finally, I would like to add that although I am not yet sure how to go about it, I would really like to be able to work with children. Even though I know that maybe they are not directly related, I would like perhaps outside of my work as an archaeologist to be part of some organization that is related to children, because I really like working with them and at some moment, I thought to study pedagogy.
