Why I choose my carrer?

When I was child I loved history and biology,  I always thought these two subjects were not compatible. I felt surprised when I knew about this career, because for me it was the exact mix that I was looking for.

This career research about the human evolution, the genetic differences among people and their antecessors or  among the Homo specie. Also is very important for the forensic investigations, the physical anthropologists are essential in the genocide cases around the world and specialy in the missing people in Latin America. The physical anthropologist have the knowledge and tools for the identify people. 
This career is multidisciplinary, because the physical anthropologist can work with archaeology about Bioarchaeology.

Thus, for me this career have wide variety of subjects to specialize. Personally, I prefer all about genetic, DNA and research about this. I think the physical anthropology could be a contribution in biological field.

Finally I chose the University of Chile, because this University is one of the best in this country, it is the only one that offer this career in Santiago, and I liked the pluralistic vision of this institution.

Post 1: A country I would like to visit

 
One of my dreams is travel for all world and know the different cultures, views and people. But I know this is a really difficult dream, for this, if I had choose one country for visit, I really like would to go to India.
I don't know why, but this huge country attracts my attention and interest.
I would like to visit India just for holidays o maybe work like volunteer because is a very poor country and is one of the most populated countries in the world, but is one of the most big countries also. Have a lot of religions and language and the population is mainly Hinduism, unfortunately the Hinduism people and Muslim people have a conflict from years ago.
 

But this country is not just Taj Majal and meditation, it have a really rich culture, and beautiful beaches and temples. I would like to walk around the Ganges, walk for the Bombay streets, swimming in the  Radhanagar Beach, maybe eat traditional food (and die for a spicy intoxication) travel in a full train, learn a few of the different languages and talk with the Indians about India.
Maybe one day, who knows!
