I still have to study two years, perhaps more if I decide to do another master. For the moment, I am indecisive about what I want to do in my life, about what I want to work in. I think it is difficult to determine your future; it is vain to predict it. You cannot choose something you have not experienced yet. But it is true you can have hopes, you can imagine how you see you, even if it is likely to change.
I would like to pursue my career in environmental issues. That is why, next year, I start my master of International Affairs with a specialization in Environment, Sustainable Development and Risks. But the following of my academic and professional life is really blurred. I just know, or at least I think, I want to work in the creation and implementation of environmental policies and sustainable development projects at a local level (to be more likely to have a concrete and effective action).
As far as the sector is concerned, I think it is not a criteria: I want to work in something I like, I want to fight for this cause, and I do not care of the sector I am in to do so. The important point for me is to be efficient, to have a real impact on the reduction of the ecological impact of a country, a city, a person, a firm.
Nevertheless, I am sure of one thing: my job should not be the motor of my life, I am not interested in earning much money, I aspire to a quiet and original life, I want to travel, to change of country and of job every five years, to have the time for painting, hiking, reading: it is necessary to combine work and pleasure and to avoid routing setting in. Otherwise, I might grow tired quickly of my life.

I completely agree with you about your idea of being able to combine work and pleasure. Life wouldn´t depend on our jobs. I think that´s one of the biggest mistakes today.
ReplyDeleteCuriously, we agree more or less about our future. This is totally "citizen of the world"
