Ciao a tutti, 

My name is Scarlet Murphy, and I am a student of Environmental Sciences (currently in my third year). Sustainability has always been a great passion for me; after all, what is the point of knowing the sciences if not to understand the planet itself, its hidden essences, and its deepest roots?

For the first time in my life, I am faced with an opportunity that allows me to put my academic knowledge into practice and turn a passion into a professional activity. I have always believed that knowledge is real only when shared, and I intent to leave memories of joy and pleasure in the minds and hearts of others !

I shall endeavour to communicate and share with others what I have learned over the years, expanding my personal, cultural, and professional horizons in the process. In this sense, I aim to educate, without presumption and arrogance, those I come into contact with and convey what I consider a value to be preserved: protecting the planet and making it a better place to live, for us and for all living matter.

 I am extremely excited to be part of this work and life project, where I will pour all my attention, expertise, and dedication. All of this in a cultural and captivating atmosphere like that of Rome. When I walk through its enchanted alleys.

I want to emphasize that financial support in these situations and at this age is particularly important. I would greatly appreciate any contribution, even modest, to the work I am about to begin with the utmost commitment and professionalism. I also believe that the cause of environmental sustainability, which I am about to support with this work experience, is too often undervalued in terms of adequate financial support. This should not be seen as an insult to the cause, but rather as an elevation of the work of individuals and the issues addressed.

Wishing everyone reading a plesant day !
Best Regards - Scarlet
