To be successful you must make sacrifices, the more difficult it is, the more I appreciate it. Failures are our wisdom, and through them we learn many things.

Accept defeat with humility and try to let a long time to remember. Success usually celebrate in the company of loved ones, they are for me the strength to subsequent operations.

Describe your childhood when you were growing up from 8 to 13 years old.

When I grew up in the countryside. I loved spending time outdoors, surrounded by animals. When I was 6 years we moved to the town of Ostrow, Mazowiecka. In school, I met many friends and colleagues. I was interested in sport and the arts. And I appreciate and love contact with nature.


What lessons did you learn from your childhood/growing years?

During this visit, I realized that the kids liked me for how I am, not for how I look. This shows how important is the inside person , and not the physical appearance.


What is your most memorable moment?

One of the funniest situations that happened to me was during a visit to a school. I met children who asked me a lot of interesting questions. The questions concerned the Miss Earth contest and my interests and tastes. The funniest thing was the question: Would I go with them on a school trip to the mountains? And I said, why not? I love nature and children.


What is your environmental advocacy?

For my ecological project, I choose trash sorting and waste. I chose it because it will be always be important for the Czech Republic and for the whole world as well. Somewhere in the world, the problem is bigger and somewhere else is a smaller problem. As an example, I can mention the situation in Neapol (Italy), where the problem of sorting waste is very serious. We should all sort trash, for example, plastic bottles, glass, papers or metals.

During this time we should have bins for bio trash. First, there is a lack of containers in our streets. Secondly I think that everybody could join, because everything starts with each individual. I know for example in Germany there is a deposit for every bottle you return or dispose of with the proper authorities. That means people do no throw the bottles but they return them back into the shops. I think it could also help if all wrappers would be produced from recycled materials. At the beginning of June, there is a Day of Earth in my Czech Republic. I often took part in this action. I find it very useful. We should also promote the teaching of environmental education in all schools. . Everybody of us can join to help improve the environment of our Earth.
