Her "Classroom" is an Environmental Theme Park | Best Job Ever

Imagine that you are a child. You are 10 years old and "environment" is a word that nobody understands. My job is to train the next explorers of Grandmother Earth to be teachers, to be environmental instructors. That's why I wanted to create a special place to have fun and learn.

So imagine "Sa Pentandra" is more like a team part where you can find all the methodologies and all the tools that you need to be an environmentalist. How can a big tree stay inside a leader's seat when you listen about global warming? How can you understand what that means? Sounds difficult.

In our classrooms, there are no boards, no chairs, and no tables. So my job is to create games with children and understand how we can protect nature and the environment. When a child decides to be the hero of Grandmother Earth, he spends all the weekends of one year learning about water, biodiversity, and planting.

Then he gets accreditation like an environmental instructor because I feel that children are the best teachers in the world. I feel that I'm not working; I feel that I'm just doing what I really love. What I really want to do is to give support for those children who are going to be the future, but they need to take action now.

Let's say life did exist on the surface of Mars. Would it be able to withstand the bacteria, the viruses, all of the bad things that we have on Earth without having the protection because it's never seen it before?
