Hi, I am Efia from Berlin, Germany
If you had a day off, what would be the first thing you would want to do?
If it’s (hopefully) a sunny day, I would make myself a freshly ground coffee and sit outside with sunrays on my face and birds chirping all around me.
Name a problem that you would like to solve.
Since there is so much and one can hardly address everything, I would divide it into individual and common fields of action. On an individual scale, I think we are developing more and more into a performance society where everyone strives to be the best and have the best. I would wish that we have more self-reflection and consciousness, for example when it comes to our consumption behaviour. On a common scale, probably something connected with how to make cities more sustainable and equitable, for example challenges faced throughout the world due to rapid urbanisation processes.
Unusual ritual?
If I’m with my family, we have like a 2-3 hours breakfast every Sunday. We draw little faces on boiled eggs, sometimes bake something and just talk and laugh a lot!
One thing you want to do before you’re thirty?
When I was a child, I was fascinated by seeing the world from different perspectives. In grade 6 we had to present our dreams and I said I want to see the world from above and from underwater. I’ve already worked as a divemaster for half a year, but skydiving is definitely still on my list!
