Ravinder GhattauraMixing volunteering and sightseeing was a great way to experience the country and meet new people from all over the world.
Donna TannerMy highlights were to learning about the different environmental issues, and seeing the wildlife. The conservation team make you feel really welcome and are available to answer any questions/queries. My tip future travellers is to buy factor 50 sun screen before you go as you can’t get it in Australia.....

Was hat Dir an Deiner Reise am Besten gefallen?Neben der, sich vor allem in der Vielfältigkeit von Deutschland unterscheidenden Tier- und Pflanzenwelt, werden mir die nach getaner Arbeit gemeinsam unternommen Ausflüge mit Volunteers aus aller Welt gut in Erinnerung bleiben!
Was sind Deine Tipps für zukünftige Reisende?Wer an einem Naturschutzprojekt in Australien teilnimmt, sollte nicht erwarten, dass die Arbeit immer mit der eigenen Ansicht von nachhaltigem Naturschutz übereinstimmt. Ansonsten kann ich nur empfehlen, eine Reise über Real Gap Experience zu buchen, der Rest passiert dann ganz von alleine und wird eine Zeit mit sich bringen, an die man sich noch lange gerne zurückerinnert!
Was kannst Du zum Schluss sagen?Mehrsprachig Unkraut jähten - sofort wieder!
