My name is Taida xoxox, and I am passionate about an ecological lifestyle xoxoxoxoxo and nature conservation xoxoxoxo.
I am a biologist and marine ecologist by profession. I completed a master's program, "Landscape Ecology and Nature Conservation," in the beautiful town of Greifswald in northern Germany. My desire for further education leads me to interdisciplinary education in nature conservation, biodiversity conservation, international processes, and networks of nature conservation and biodiversity as part of the Klaus Toepfer scholarship. I am constantly exploring new ways of improving and educating myself. I regularly attend online education in nature conservation and sustainable development.
What GAIA means?
The GAIA consultancy was named after the Greek goddess who personified the Earth, but also after the holistic approach of viewing our beautiful planet as a living organism where we are all connected.
In my private time, I enjoy traveling to various destinations. Through these travels, I absorb and experience the local way of life. In my free time, I like to read.
