About my carrer

How did you become interested in your area of study? What motivates you to continue learning about your career?
When I was in school, in 3erd grade, I started searching for the carrer that interested me most. It was very important to found the wright one because it would be my future profesion.
First I was interested in animals, so I decided to be a vet, then I started to like things related with the field,so I considerated to study agronomy, then I wanted to study art. Finally, I started to hear about Ocupational Therapy and it was a carrer that had all the things that I wanted to do. First, it`s a carrer of the medical area so it has many elements from biology. It needs a very creative mind because the ocupacional therapysts do rehabilitation through many kinds of activities. And it`s a very humanist profesion because you treat with real people all the time and you can help them live in a better way without suffering.

There are many things that motivates me to continue learning about this carrer. One of them is that we have been to institutions where we worked with patients and we have seen and experienced the impact that our work did in the pacients improvement. This experience was very motivating and this year we are starting with a new proyect based in old persons. Our main purpose is to achieve old people´s real participation in society. It`s very interesting an there are so many things that I still have to learn.
