I was Tibka. I purchased 2 sacks (kuntal) of DAP fertilizer for my family, saving the money sent by them while I was a first and second-year student at Bahir Dar University from 2010 to 2013 G.C. Now, I have completed my MSc through the Erasmus Mundus program and earned a PhD in Germany. Currently, I am working as a researcher at the Helmholtz Centre Hereon, a research center in Germany. I feel proud to reflect on my past as Tibka.
