I've always loved history. I do well with names and dates because of my autism, but it's always been the fact that history is just normal people doing stuff day in and day out that gets me.

Humans are fundamentally the same now as they've ever been, and that's so fascinating because you can always understand them. And the best part is when they wrote something down and you can read their words and hear their voice through them. Conversations with our ancestors! It's amazing!
