Turtles in Bali Project

April 09, 2025by: Laurie Sivel - France

Program: Turtle Conservation and Rehabilitation in Bali

10

During my time, I was assigned to create a journalistic video to present the association's mission. I also participated in fishing, cleaning the habitats, shells, and feeding the turtles. This project allowed me to understand the importance of the fight for the protection of endangered species and to learn more about turtles. I loved this project and found it very interesting. The coordinators were so passionate, which inspired me a lot. Freepackers has so many diverse and important projects and is very transparent in spending, and a serious approach to helping you every step of the way. This project was unforgettable.

Program: Turtle Conservation and Rehabilitation in Bali

10

My tasks during this project were cleaning the tanks, the turtles, and the beaches. My favorite part of the project was getting to help release the turtles into the wild. This project is so fun, but also an opportunity to learn how to manage yourself and to force yourself to socialize. It is an opportunity to get to know new people from all over the world. We also had a lot of free time, which was great for Bali and relaxing on the beach. Freepackers was awesome and always present and reassuring when needed exploring.

Program: Turtle Conservation and Rehabilitation in Bali

This project taught me so much culturally and brought me a lot of personal enrichment. It was a timeless moment and a wonderful way for personal discovery. My favorite part was feeding the turtles and helping with beach cleanups. This project taught me a lot, and I recommend it for everyone, but it wasn't without the help of Freepackers as they guided me through the whole process. They made it easy to access help with clean and concise communication.
