For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Mayan archaeologist and educator, Dr. Andrew Kinkella.
Dr. Kinkella originally went to college to pursue acting. However, after taking and enjoying a few archaeology classes, he took great interest in the subject. This newfound interest eventually led him to Central America to conduct fieldwork on Mayan archaeological sites. And he's been back to Central America over many field seasons to continue to study Mayan culture. And he even discovered a new Mayan pyramid. Along the way, he's also sought to share the wonders of archaeology with the public through various TV productions. As well as through his YouTube channel and his Pseudo-Archaeology Podcast.
In this episode, Dr. Kinkella tell some of his stories from traveling to the jungles of Central America to study Mayan culture. He also talks about the lessons that we can learn by studying the civilizations that came before us. Furthermore, we discuss the importance of pursuing what you want to do in life even if other people don't like it.
