MISS EARTH ALBANIA
DRITA ZIRI
DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS
During my childhood until now my life has been filled with excitement giving the fact that I took part in a lot of dance and theater shows and abroad festivals.
I was and still am a very active person.
Traveling is a big part of me growing up, I learned how to respect and appreciate other cultures but also how to share mine.
I finished high school this past year and l am so
ready to live new experiences and
learn from them.
WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?
My most memorable moment would definitely be winning
Miss Shqiperia (Albania) 2022.
That moment and the emotions I was going through are carved in my heart.
ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?
I am very close with my family.
I am so thankful because they have always been there for me and they have been very supportive towards my dreams and decisions I’ve made.
We all live in a house with my grandparents.
A fun fact is that I am named after my grandmother.
WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?
The unusual thing is that I have never done anything unusual my whole life.
From the first grade l have attended the school of ballet where being disciplined and going by the rules was not questioned so l didn’t have much room for the unusual activities also giving the long hours and the very small amount of free time.
WHAT TIPS CAN YOU SHARE TO PROMOTE ECOTOURISM & CLIMATE CHANGE?
Ecotourism can help improve the quality of life and fight poverty in these locations, also taking into consideration that these pristine and remote locations that travelers prioritize are the most fragile and prone to negative human influence.
Climate change is threatening the survival of animals and humans.
Unless we take immediate action to address these issues, it is likely that these effects will become more costly and difficult to adapt to for our Earth
WHAT MAKES YOU PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY?
Aside from the fact that Albania is a beautiful country when it comes to the wild and wonderful nature, we are also very rich in culture and traditions.
What l would love to highlight about my country is the hospitality and the warmth feeling
Albanians offer to their guests. We love to share our way of life, our traditions and invite people into our culture.
WHAT IS YOUR ADVOCACY?
A healthy ocean is essential to all life on Earth. The ocean is not limitless, and today, marine species and ecosystems are facing unprecedented threats due to human use and destructive practices. That is why I do my best to keep our oceans clean.
