What an experience!

What an incredible journey! I have volunteer with IVHQ in Bali this summer for two weeks and this has been one of the most amazing experiences in my life.

First of all, I did the turtle conservation project and fell in love with the island, the animals and the local people. The staff there is awesome and extremely supportive, always willing to help you if they can or listen and be there for you all the way.

During the 2 weeks, we worked with the turtles feeding them and cleaning them, we cleaned the beach and the streets, we made rubbish bins for the islanders... there were lots of things to do! We even try to build walls for the water bomb... and try is the word there.
But in every single activity we had so much fun and the coordinators were always there to help us.

We explored the island Nusa Penida where the project is seated and we couldn't believe the paradise it is. The views are breathtaking and the beaches astonishing, despite all the walking down the cliffs and then back up again. Be ready for a lot of sweating if you want to go to the best ones! We even went snorkelling and saw big turtles.
And the locals... always smiling and so welcoming.

Overall, I wouldn't change a single thing and I wish I could have stayed forever there!
