Description
Some adventures are planned: flights are booked, itineraries get organised, suitcases get packed and you're off. Some adventures have other ideas. Some adventures choose you. Some adventures tell you 'it's time'. My adventure is one of those adventures...
Come with me as I travel to Borneo, volunteering at a wildlife rescue centre with a mix of like-minded souls from all walks of life, who came together with a common purpose, to enrich the lives of the animals there. Discover the sites and people I met along the way, some fascinating facts, and a smattering of the language.
My journey begins as a seasoned animal keeper in the UK, a little jaded and frustrated at not being able to give the animals the perfect life so looking to work in-situ and see some of their natural environments for myself. I felt confident I would be able to hit the ground running working alongside local keepers, but felt nervous at travelling so far, to unknown places, alone. Yet this was to be the first of several projects I would have the privilege of becoming involved with and charts my, sometimes naive, discoveries of the new world before me and how I fit so neatly within it.
