Well a few weeks ago i visited the NHM to meet up with a curator there, her name is Lorna Steel and she is pretty much like an idol to me, the same as Mary Anning that i have talked about before. Anyway well a couple of months ago i suppose i emailed her asking her about her job and things i would need to accomplish to become like her, so she told me and after a few emails she invited me to meet up with her and i was ecstatic! so i got to London and went in the staff entrance ( all exciting ! ) and met with her.
she showed me behind the scenes in the palaeontology department and i got to look at some of the type specimens and general fossils which was really interesting and i hope to meet up with her again next time i visit.
But its not just behind the scenes that are interesting, the whole museum is full of wonders! from fossils to mammals and from the bizarre to the beautiful. If you ever get the chance to go to London i strongly recommend visiting there are things for all tastes your spoilt for choice and its a place that you could spend all day at because personally if i get the chance even i will! Thank you so much Lorna if you're reading this it was amazing and i hope i can be like you one day!
