My name is Sarah and I am one of the visitor and community engagement volunteers.

我是 Sarah，是這裡的訪客與社群參與志工之一。

過去簡單式

I always had a real passion for archaeology.

I went to university, I studied archaeology, but then spent 25 years working in a corporate world.

我上大學時唸的是考古學，但後來卻在企業界工作了 25 年。

I always wanted to get my passion back for doing archaeology.

我一直希望能重拾對考古學的熱情。

So, yeah, this opportunity came up and I wanted to come back and actually get back into heritage again.

所以，這個機會出現了，我想回來，真正地重新投入遺產工作。

Most of the time I work in the Neolithic houses here and that is just having all of the handling, collection out.

大部分時間我都在這裡的新石器時代房屋裡幫忙，負責所有文物的處理和收藏品展示。

And we talk to the visitors and we let them handle the different hand axes, polished axes, all the different arrowheads and things, and

我們會跟參觀的民眾介紹，讓他們可以接觸不同的手斧、磨製石斧，還有各種箭頭等等，

we talk to them about how the houses were constructed and we talk to them about everyday life so that people can see not only the stone, but

我們跟他們聊聊房屋是如何建造的，聊聊當時的日常生活，這樣大家不只能看到石頭，

they can actually see how people were living at the time.

還能真正瞭解當時人們是如何生活的。

I come into this landscape and all I have is the sky.

我走進這片風景，擁有的只有天空。

I've got the wonderful grasses and everything like that, the birdsong, the hares are sitting on the paths and things like that.

我這裡有漂亮的草地、鳥鳴聲，還有野兔就坐在步道上。

It's where I feel happy and I love to share it with everybody else too.

這裡讓我覺得很開心，我也很喜歡跟其他人分享。

There are some really great volunteers here with some really excellent knowledge because they've also been involved in building the houses and making some of the different tools and things.

這裡有些很棒的志工，他們有非常豐富的知識，因為他們也參與了建造房屋和製作各種工具。

If you don't want to go out and stand in the Neolithic houses and talk to people, you can stand in the exhibition space and talk to them, or you can actually just stand outside the visitor centre and welcome people.

如果你不想去新石器時代的房屋裡跟人交談，你可以在展覽空間裡跟他們聊，或者你也可以直接站在遊客中心外面迎接大家。

It's a really big team that we have here of volunteers and it's a real community of volunteers.

我們這裡有一個很龐大的志工團隊，是一個真正的志工社群。

This year we had 16,000 people who came along for summer solstice and it was a lovely atmosphere and it's really nice to hear the music, hear the drumming and hear all the voices there and you kind of get a sense of maybe how it was actually used back in prehistory too.

今年夏至有16,000人來參加，氣氛很棒，聽到音樂、鼓聲和大家的聲音真的很開心，你也會是以感受到史前時代可能的使用方式。

I find this landscape really positive landscape to be in.

我發現這片風景是一個非常正面的地方。

I find it actually makes me feel like I've got lots of energy and it draws me to it.

我發現這讓我感覺很有活力，而且會被它吸引。

And actually I think when we see all the visitors here on a day to day basis, and

而且其實我覺得，當我們每天看到這麼多遊客在這裡，

one of the frequent questions is, why does everybody come here?

常見的問題是，為什麼大家都要來這裡？

And I look around, everybody wants to be here.

我環顧四周，每個人都想待在這裡。

I think all of that energy coming together is really positive and lovely.

我覺得所有這些能量匯集在一起，真的很正面、很美好。

I just think volunteering is a really great opportunity to take yourself away from your normal day job, to come and hear different voices, different people talking and just learn.

我覺得當志工是一個很棒的機會，可以讓你暫時脫離平常的日班工作，來這裡聽聽不同的聲音，聽不同的人說話，然後學習。

I go home at the end of the evening and I know I'm going to sleep well and I feel like I've had a lovely day.

晚上回家時，我知道我會睡得很好，而且我覺得我度過了美好的一天。
