You can, too.</p><p>Your Genographic kit explains it all - and it also comes with a little brush called a \"swab.\"</p><p>All you need to do is brush the inside of your mouth.\u00a0 This collects some cells from inside your cheek, and those cells contain DNA.\u00a0 Send the swab back to us.</p><p>A few weeks later, you'll get the answers on our website, like: what genetic family you belong to, where your ancestors originated, where they went and the amazing story of your ancient family line.</p><p>It'll even tell you what fraction of your DNA is from what part of the world: European, African, Asian, Australian, Native American, and so on.</p><p>We'll even tell you what percent Neanderthal you are!</p><p>The answers might really surprise you.\u00a0 And I bet they will make you think a little differently about who you are, where you came from - and how you are related to everyone else in the world.</p><p>Welcome to the journey of a lifetime, of billions of lifetimes - the human journey.</p>",
