She transitioned to the Arts with a Fulbright Commission scholarship, earning a Master&#8217;s in Fine Arts (MFA) in drawing at Florida Atlantic University. Corresponding to her growing environmental concerns, she completed her basic education in Permaculture through a Permaculture Design Course, followed by a Permaculture Teachers\u2019 Training with Rosemary Morrow. Since then, she has been dedicated to the reformation of her family land into a productive permaculture farm. Sofia has always been involved in teaching: chemistry, art and permaculture. Through her involvement in private and collective initiatives, she has become a firm promoter of a natural lifestyle, by researching and applying natural food, health, energy, and building alternatives.<\/p>\n<p>Facebook:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/so.ma.543\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u00a0 so.ma.543<\/a><br \/>\nWebsite:\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/petrera.land\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">petrera.land\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>TEDxUniversityofNicosia Talk:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>5 THINGS I LEARNT THROUGH GARDENING <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>A journey through natural food growing, herbal experiments, trail running and community building, this is the story of how a financial and social crisis sparked a quest for a lifestyle rooted in nature.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":728,"template":"","team_category":[26,25],"class_list":["post-724","team","type-team","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","team_category-speakers-17","team_category-tedx-unic-2017"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team\/724","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/team"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team\/724\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=724"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"team_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tedxunic.com\/2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team_category?post=724"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
