Gerrardo asked:
I am not interested in art museums, but I like to build and plan buildings, houses and….. DO you think should I become an Architect? Maybe you can recommend me another career? What does an Architect really do please explain me on your own words. And if there any Architects any advice and help please. Thank You.

it seems that majority of architects (at least in my area) have 0 artistic flair and about as much idea of functionality too (door next to a fireplace, srsly?). So it’s not like you would be at a disadvantage
If you do not like to draw, do not have a good sense of color, scale, proportion, line and dimension, you will not be a good Architect.
Read the American Institute of Architects website to understand what Architects do.
If you love construction and building and excel at math, consider Civil Engineering or Structural Engineering.
Graduating Engineers have higher salaries than graduating Architects.
If you like Construction management, being in the field and physically being part of creating a building, consider a career degree in Building Construction. The University of Florida has one of the best Building Construction schools in the country.
When I graduated in Architecture, Construction Management Graduate Salaries were also significantly higher.
