Needless to say, the worst of all is not have premiered. In this case, finding yourself in your thirties and not being able to remember something because you have never done it is already more than worrying. Opportunities have not lacked you since you were very young, but you never took the step, without being able to explain the specific reason.
But don't get discouraged, here's the good news:recreate history What you have always liked is just around the corner. The recreation of your favorite era is right at your fingertips and all you need to do is gather a little information and find the necessary companies to immerse yourself in the past.
Here are five tips to help you take off.
- Don't think you're old enough . If you think that you are no longer to carry an armor, your opportunity did not pass you by. Not everyone was in top shape in the past. There is always something you can do and a role to play. Historical recreation has no conditions in terms of age, sex or social status.
- You don't necessarily have to be rich . Recreation can be started on a very low budget. Little by little you will be able to detect what your needs and best investments are in order to recreate your favorite era as best as possible. Adapting your recreation to your budget is the key:the one who spends the most is not the most correct re-enactor. Trust trusted providers and ask them your questions.
- Approach the experts . This is easier said than done because sometimes we can become disoriented, both because of little information and because of too much of it. Reading prestigious magazines and being in the company of historians and archaeologists is a good start. Don't be scared if you see them arguing with each other:they defend their thesis quite vehemently.
- Get social :Although you can recreate "freely", the most practical thing is to join some of the associative entities that already exist. You just have to find the one closest to your home. Most likely, the time you are passionate about is being recreated much closer to home than you imagine. If there is no suitable one for you, why not found one? If you pour your passion into the project, success is guaranteed.
- The historical reenactor is an engineer from the past . You will have to choose the time that you like the most and bring it to the present. Unfortunately all those who lived in it are already dead and if they left something written they cannot explain their texts to us. To rebuild you will have to leave the field of certainties for that of uncertainties. Everything you reconstruct will have only a certain degree of probability and consensus among the experts. Humility and constant doubt will be your best guides.
It's your time. Edit the list of purposes and insert:“Become a re-enactor” .
And remember, if you don't try, you'll never walk through the door into the past.
