Yes, I recommend this program

I really enjoyed it, I felt so useful

I had such a great time. Everyone was so helpful and friendly and I felt so safe especially as I was a solo female traveller. I made so many friends that I’ve kept in contact with. Doing so many different things to help the animals be safe and sound was really rewarding. I also took so many nice photos on insta which are so many nice memories to look back on. I did the project for 2 weeks, but I wished I had done it for a bit longer. We did a trip on the weekend which was so nice to explore Port Elizabeth. I recommended it to all my friends.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would have taken my big camera as there was so many times I wished I’d have the good camera
