Martina Arghirò Andriotis

I’ve been interested in the subjects of social rights and social welfare from a very young age, that is why I decided to study law. I’ve always imagined that the legal system was the impartial recipe for a better and more ethical world. During my studying career I had the fantastic opportunity to work for an exceptional deputy in the European Parliament of Strasbourg. That year was an invaluable experience, however at the same time I realized that there is too much of politics involved in the legal process and that brought disenchantment. At this point I decided to discover the world, travel, get in touch with different cultures. Trying to learn local languages was an important part of the journey, to better myself and learn about the world we are living in. I tried to find an occupation where my traits of sensitiveness and empathy could be useful, and I feel that I was successful in this quest.
Fiodor Dostoievski wrote that “Beauty will save the world”. In my personal opinion Nature is the purest form of beauty. My decision was to know and study more about nature, to share the beauty in a sustainable way, contributing personally to spread the awareness about our acts when we deal with nature.
