from the curious. for the curious.

mission

learning is the world’s greatest gift.

from birth we all begin our lives as inherently curious beings. from the beginning of time humans have travelled into the unknown. from first leaving the african continent, to journeying into space: the search for more has always been there, deep inside. time and time again we have taken risks to explore.

but in our modern world many of us lose this desire to know more as we get older. this has become increasingly more prevalent with new technology like ai. why should we bother to learn, to know, to understand, to think, if it is all there at the click of a button?

because this is what makes us who we are. human beings. if we lose this ability, we risk losing ourselves.

so this blog is here for you. for the curious minds we all share. to read my words but more importantly to spark your own. I’ll write about what is important to me: be it history, archaeology, exploration or whatever else. I’m just here explore us, our experiences, our connection.

story

I’m george. an archaeology and ancient history student and who loves learning and exploring and movies and music and walks and tea and myself and books and love and art and the sun and travelling and life and you.

I live in scotland. it’s great you should come.

this blog is here for me, mainly. to write. and share. some stuff might be boring to you. I’m sorry but I’m also not sorry because maybe you should just get better taste. I’m joking your cool. if you’re reading this you are in fact incredibly cool.

I digress. it’s important to me to learn and I think the art of learning is dying. knowledge, facts, critical thinking and the african forest elephant are all also dying. but all hope is not lost because me and you can make this world better. we can make changes. and be bold. and we can rise up and shape our world together. so hopefully some of the stuff I write about can inspire you. to just be a human and wander and wonder.

you know what’s super cool? history. cool like archaeology. but for some reason not many other people think so. I think it might be because of the way things are often presented. boring and difficult to read. so I want to try and present the past (and everything else I yap about) in an accessible way so more people can understand, and eventually they too will find this stuff cool. because it is and that’s the bottom line.

one love,

george
