Hello                 

 I am deeply grateful to my parents for choosing the name Silvana for me. Of Latin origin, Silvana means "of the forest" or "from the forest." It’s a feminine, nature-inspired name that evokes images of serene woods and the tranquility of the natural world. This name resonates deeply with my essence "essencesilvana", reflecting my love for nature and our beautiful planet.

 

My experiences in many countries and cultures have inspired me to share my journey through writing for newspapers, magazines, and blogs. An international journey as a biologist and traveler began at Point Reyes National Seashore and the Farallon Islands National Wildlife Refuge in the USA. It continued with my work as an ornithologist on a multicultural research team in Russia, where we collaborated to establish the Great Arctic Reserve.

 

For four years, I served as an associate researcher and documentarian for an independent German film production company. There, I contributed to TV series focused on topics such as climate change, rising sea levels, and bionics—an innovative field where nature inspires advancements in architecture, engineering, and medicine.

​

I've been visiting about 60 countries and each place I’ve called home has taught me invaluable lessons about myself and the world. Cultures are rooted in a time and place. They define  also how people relate to nature and their physical environmental, to the, earth and the cosmos, even in our globalized world of cosmopolitan communities.  

​

I believe we can be more aware of green living through pollution reduction, wildlife              protection, natural resource conservation, and other daily common efforts in our way of living that can help decrease the rate of climate change and global warming.

​​

In fact, we need an eco-social model based on trust, empathy and collaboration rather than the over exploitation of our natural resources. Although it may seem exaggerated, we must often questioning the  civilization model we have created and we must rethink ourselves to continue existing in this amazing planet.
