Hmmm , I don't think I would like to be a philosopher, that's close to what I do now. Certainly not an artist because I possess no talent there. So that leaves explorer/navigator. That would be my choice. I have a degree in botany, so I could find edible plant life. I grew up on a farm so handling livestock is familiar to me, Being a Texan my entire life I am accomplished with firearms or the bow. I am a hunter, trapper, and I love to fish. I know the night sky, and I have a healthy dose of common sense. I am in great physical shape so it might just work...don't you think?

But you are a artist miss chick. It takes skill to shot bow and arrow. As a botanist,you have the eyes of a artist. Knowing which plant to chose from.

@TexChik: But you can. Is not movement like field of art. How the body moves.Like when people do something. Like when you are firing a rife or a handgun. The muscle memory of it. Like the olympic people do do that as well. The grace of it. Is artistic as well
