Coming from a family full of doctors and engineers, it was not uncommon for us to go to science fairs and museums on weekends, and I pretty much had no other choice than to go out with mom to these places if I had to get that favourite pastry. I think a lot of my curiosity about the world that we live in can be attributed to her. She is crazy about all the new discoveries (and researching about them). I think that slid onto me as well.
