Hello!
My name is Alexandra, I'm based in the UK, and I'm a mature student of the ancient Mediterranean. This blog was formed to document my transition from autdidactic enthusiast, to Classical Studies undergrad, and now (at the time of updating this post) an MA student.
My background is firmly working class and it's only now, as a student with a growing network, that I realise how few professional working class classicists there are. That's doubly true of the ancient historians working in public engagement, so I'm hoping to add one more to the list. I'm making inroads, and you can find my work here.
