July 06, 2026by: Samantha Sanders - United StatesI had the most amazing time in Nusa Penida. My family and friends are probably so sick of me because I won't stop talking about it! I met the most amazing people from all over the world and we instantly became best friends. I adored working with the turtles and our coordinators were so funny and kind! Bali is so beautiful and I loved getting to explore the island. This was a life changing experience that I would recommend to anyone! This was more than I could've dreamed of!

Loved it🤍
March 24, 2026by: Martina Eva Ennas - SwitzerlandI absolutely loved the entire three-week experience, starting with our time in Ubud during culture week, where I got to fully immerse myself in Balinese traditions, daily life, and such a unique atmosphere. It was an incredible way to learn and connect on a deeper level. Afterwards, being in Nusa Penida for the marine conservation part made the experience even more special—working with nature and contributing to something meaningful was truly rewarding. On top of that, I met so many kind and inspiring people along the way who I now genuinely consider my friends 🤍
