Anthropologist in the Making: Taking a short hiatus

Welcome. :)

Welcome to my blog. Here I share my successes and failures along my journey to becoming an anthropologist. My most prominent interest anthropologically are the new approaches to handing food security/healthy eating in the US, particularly in urban "food deserts". I enjoy the Anthropology of Tourism as well; combining food and tourism has scholarly promise. My other interests which have converted into anthropological hobbies of sorts include converts to Islam, diaspora of Muslims, and MENA in general. I also have some interest in historical archaeology.

I welcome comments, discussion and even respectful debating. I will however keep discussions to a respectable level. I reserve the right to ban anyone from this forum.

I know I do not write volumes here but what I do write will be on hiatus for about 5-6 weeks. I will not have time to read many other blogs either. Work, school, sleep, eat and get the laundry done and that stuff. I even suspended my movie subscription. That said...play nice kids. I may post papers but not until the grade comes out.

Salaams!
