Volunteering on my gap year in Vietnam & Bali
As a part of my gap year, I travelled to Vietnam and Bali. It was one of the best experiences, I met so many new people, learnt so much and would 100% recommend it to anyone! My journey started in Vietnam, where I was able to help within the children's disabled centre for 2 weeks. My next destination was Bali, which involved exploring for 10 days as a group , then 2 weeks volunteering. Overall, it was a trip of a lifetime! I got to experience different cultures in Vietnam and Bali whilst having the opportunity to help.Incredible turtle conservation in Greece
I recently came back from an incredible turtle conservation trip in Greece (Lixouri) with The Mighty Roar from July 21st to August 8th, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my experience. From the moment I began the booking process to the time I bid farewell to my new friends and the incredible team, The Mighty Roar made every aspect of this adventure seamless.Friends and memories for life in Tanzania
I have just returned home after an incredible 5 weeks spent in Tanzania. I spent my time with both the childcare and medical programmes and whist I could write a book about my trip, I do have a few highlights. Living and volunteering amongst the local people allowed me to immerse myself in the culture of Tanzania and get to know the amazing people who live there. I met so many inspirational people and I will cherish my memories from Tanzania for life.Turtle volunteering in Madagascar - paradise!
I travelled to Madagascar to do the Turtle Volunteering Programme on the island paradise, Nosy Komba, for a week during September of 2023 with two close friends I know from school. Our experience was truly eye opening and was an extremely productive trip for all of us. Many lessons were learnt, and I genuinely believe we all grew as people despite being there for only a week.A trip of a lifetime to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe
Through TMR I volunteered on the game reserve within Victoria Falls Zimbabwe. For me, this was a trip of a lifetime. The people I met were fabulous, the guides were amazing, and the wildlife was just indescribable. Even if you have travelled before, there is nothing that can compare to Africa. TMR offered help and support throughout the whole process and I will always be eternally grateful for them finding me this most incredible experience.Making Artificial Reefs In Bali
Where do I start with Bali, I came into this not really knowing what to expect but let me tell you, I can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life. I did marine conservation for 2 months which seems like a long time but time flies by to the point that 2 months is just not enough. Bali is a beautiful country with great people, amazing food, breathtaking views and many fun opportunities. I can’t recommend it enough.A wildlife experience like no other in Namibia
Earlier this year, my friend and I had the pleasure of spending 3 weeks at the Wildlife sanctuary in Namibia. We saw plenty of animals, helped relocate rhinos, went on a horse sunset ride and more! If you’re considering Namibia as a part of your trip, don’t think twice! It really was one of the best experiences of my life that I would do over and over again.Conserving Loggerhead sea turtles in Greece
I have just returned from Greece volunteering in the conservation of loggerhead sea turtles. I came across TMR and instantly fell in love with their efficiency to provide once in a lifetime travel experiences. I would 100% recommend, they’re a great way to visit somewhere new at a reasonable cost and meet new people - I will be booking future trips.Marine and Coastal Conservation in Greece
I spent two weeks in Kefalonia, a greek island in the ionian sea, where I learned a lot about marine conservation, made amazing friends and saw some baby turtles hatch! Travelling and volunteering in Greece was a dream come true and I would absolutely recommend this programme to anyone thinking about it.Read helpful reviews
