Post 5: My future Job

Hello everybody, today I’m going to talk about my labor perspectives for the future. As you know, I’m studying anthropology since 2015, and this year I decided to take a specialization in archaeology. There are many reasons to justify why I chose that career, and why I want to work in archaeology in the following years. One of those is that I definitely would like to work outdoors, especially in campaigns with workmates. I have a lot of expectations of fieldworks because there is always a component of surprise in the sense that the possibility of finding something is always there. In addition,  I think that working as archeologist offers the possibility of know a lot of places of Chile and other countries in the region, and view this places in a historical and even prehistorical perspective, that maybe could help some historical and actual processes.

About the salary is known that archeology is an unstable work, so I don’t know what to expect. 
People say that if you follow a way of “EIA”  you could get a lot of money, but I think is hard to take that way without a complex reflexion because it brings a lot of ethical implications with the environments, the communities of the places where your work and other variables. In a general view, maybe another option could be working in investigation. I think it’s very interesting, but it requires a lot of commitment because at least in our country investigation doesn’t have many resources for its development. Like a said before, is hard what to expect in relation to my labor future. In general, I think that I don't decide yet what I want to do certainty. 

That's all for today, thank you for reading! see you in the next post.

Post 1: Perú

Hi!, today I’m going to talk about a country I would like to visit, specially like a tourist destination. Travelling is a thing that I have always wanted to do, but there is a lot of complications when I want to take the risk and give the step to meet new places, like money or health issues. If you ask me today, I would like to visit all south Americans countries, because I like the variety of people that you can meet there and the diversity of ecosystems and landscapes that you can find in our continent, and the better economic options that you can get with the money exchange. I think if I were rich I could make all those travels. However, I think Perú is the best option because it summarize the things that I said before with   a lot of things that I love, specially the food and the historical and archaeological sites. My cousin told me that even the people that cook in the street make better plates than the restaurants here, so I would like to go through the streets and

Study programme of my career

Hi! Today I’m going to talk about some changes i would like to do to the study programme of my career, I hope you agree ahaha. Currently I’m studying anthropology with a mention in archaeology, to get the grade of archaeologist. For the moment, I’m in the third year of the career, so I can make an opinion with all certainty about the courses that I have had until nowadays. In general, I think that a big problem in the mention is related to the infrastructure and the differents tools that are not available or are few for the big quantity of students. For example, yesterday, in the class of ceramic laboratory we were around thirty people in a room destinated just to twenty people. About the teaching methods it depends of the teacher. For example, I feel very satisfied with the methods of “lithic laboratory” and “Prehistoria de Chile II”, because you learn a lot with the manner in that the teacher explains the contents. However the above, the university is always stressful. In th

Post 6. Post Graduate Studies

Hello everybody! Today I’m going to talk you about the ideas that I’m considering to make reality after I finish the pre-grade (if I finish it ajaj). I‘ve been always a person with a lot of dudes about the things I do, so there is a big spectrum of possibilities to make in the future. One of the first that comes to my mind is start to working and get a little of relax of the studies, because for the moment the university has been a very stressful part of my life and I would like to know how is the archaeological work in practice. Considering that, maybe in the future I would like to study a master in Archaeology because I could need it in relation to knowledge, but I don’t know much about where it could be, and where the best options are. For now, I’ve investigated about the possibility of make a continuity of studies between my career and the post grade master that the faculty offers, but I don’t know if it worth because like a said before studies occupies a lot of time and pl
