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.

  1. I worked with children teaching music and they are very curious! I think that if there is a chance to do science outreach oriented to children, you would do very well :)

How Can Your Major Make the World a Better

  I am studying anthropology, I think one of the reasons why I chose this career is because since I discovered its existence I thought it was the way in which I could make a contribution to society. I consider that motivation and vocation are the most important things to be able to make a contribution with the work I will do in the future, and I hope that anthropology will allow me to do so. I believe that anthropology in essence allows us to expand our way of seeing the world, allows us to put ourselves in the place of the other, and indeed to be more empathetic with others. It is from empathy, I believe, that changes can be initiated; it is vital to understand the ways in which others live in order to be able to help them effectively. In the case of archaeology, I really like the idea of being able to reconstruct the past, and give voice to many events, people, groups that have been ignored until now. In short, anthropology provides multiple tools to understand others in a resp...

My favorite piece of technology

  In definitive the laptop is my favorite piece of technology.   I remember when I was I child I spend a lot of time in front of the computer in my house, I liked playing games, watched music videos and pictures about the universe. But when my family was able to buy a laptop for the home, my enthusiasm for this piece of technology only grew, because I found it fascinating that now I could do the same as on a computer, and that it would be easier to take it with me. Due to the pandemic, I generally use the laptop at home, specifically at a desk. However, before the pandemic when I had to go out for long periods of time, I always made sure to take my laptop with me so that I had everything I needed. I currently use the laptop mainly to connect to online classes, because the pandemic has made it impossible to have face-to-face classes. Besides this, the laptop is important for my day to day, since I use it to organize all my responsibilities, I can be attentive to the mail, w...

A Photo and its Story

  This photo is from October 15, 2018 day in which I adopted my kitten. The arrival of my cat was like a great coincidence, because 1 days before with my family we had been talking about the possibility of rescuing an animal to live with us, and after analyzing it and realizing that if we can take good care of an animal, we decided to do it calmly. Coincidentally, a friend's mom called us saying that she had found a kitten dumped at the market, and that she needed to give them up for adoption urgently because they were in very bad health. So, I went out quickly with my cousin and when we arrived luckily, we still found two kittens, unfortunately the others kitties had died. That's how I found my cat. A vet had told us that it was a female, so for the first three weeks my cat was called Quimera Natti Natasha, until we found out in a check up that it was a male and his name was changed to Teodoro Ozuna. This picture brings me very nice memories, it was definitely a very goo...
