Karachi, the only place I'll ever call "Home"

"Some would say that the tenacity and stubbornness of Karachiites borders on insensitivity, but only Karachiites can understand that this resilience is the only way to survive in this schizophrenic city. This is one city that cannot be truly explored in days or even weeks. For me, it’s the most intriguing place on earth, a place that teaches me to accept and love people from every social class, caste and colour. A place that teaches me to love your country unconditionally, to constantly battle political disarray, religious extremism, and resolutely work towards a better place for the generations to come. A tourist can never fall in love with this city, and a Karachiite can never truly belong to another city."

The Field Museum's Youtube Channel: The Brain Scoop

I stumbled across this channel called The Brain Scoop sponsored by The Field Museum. This channel contains a host of videos exploring the collection of the museum, hosted by Emily Graslie.

I think it's a really interesting way of exploring the museum and presenting it to the public at large on youtube, where people from all around the world can see it.

Check it out.

What do you guys think?
