Vikings!

I really like the belief that we exist in other forms in other times, and from that, an era that has always caught my attention is the time of the Vikings, their way of living life and linking with the gods that cared for them and drove them. 

What I would most like to do would be to make weapons, learn blacksmithing and meet the people who believed in sea dragons that would attack ships, and that they had to protect themselves. On the other hand, their lifestyle sheltered by the gods seems to me extremely amusing. Being able to battle and die, destined to pass on to the afterlife, where they would await the final battle against their gods or beasts that gave meaning to their existence, particularly appeals to me. 

However, I hardly think I would consider living there, because of how violent they were, how devastating they were to other peoples, their continuous abuse of women and razing any other culture to the ground seem to me, with my present eyes, atrocious acts. For the same reason, I think I would spend time in their villages, but not on the battlefields, and after learning, I would like to go back to my time, and keep that learning of what it was really like to live among Vikings.
