Bali Turtles Review

The volunteering was really and unforgettable time and I would definitely do it again! We got to experience all the work they have to do at this great project to increase the population of the sea turtles. They are also trying to better the environment of this small island and change the mind of the locals there to get rid of the big trash problem they have there. Everyday was something special. We helped cleaning the turtle tanks, cutting fish for the turtles, Cleaned the turtles, get to feed them, went to clean the beach and the street.
The only negative thing I can tell about our volunteering experience was that there were to much volunteers which didn’t really care about the volunteering work. There were just there to make party and not for the truly good thing Green Lion Bali is trying to do there.
But that was the fault of the other volunteers.

This project is such a good thing and I really hope that future volunteers will take it more serious! Because only than there will be a real progress soon 🙂
I really hope for more volunteers with the same intentions than we had, because it is an awesome project!!

Comments on local team, food and accommodation
The Team was soooo great!! They are people with such a good heart and they really want the world to be a better place for animals and humans. The Coordinators really have a passion for this project. Additional to that they are always here for everyone if there is any problem and they always trying to keep you in a good mood. The whole team there is amazing! Everything is clean and the accommodation is really comfy. The food is delicious and there is something for everyone.

Any improvements to help us be better?
Maybe not to much participants. Because we had way to much participant and like at least one half of them didn’t really care for what they are trying to do.
And maybe longer working hours. Real volunteers would love to spend more time a day helping the people there so save the turtles and keeping Nusa Penida clean 😉
