I had the best time volunteering for The Great Orangutan Project at the Matang Wildlife Centre in Borneo. I felt very privileged to be able to experience caring for the animals and be so close to them, it’s something that will stay with me forever. It’s hard work but very rewarding. The staff at the centre were great too, you could see how much they loved the animals in their care. In addition to the volunteering work, we trekked through the jungle to a waterfall, did a nightwalk and visited Semenggoh Wildlife Centre to see more semi wild orangutans. We were very well looked after, the week was really well organised - thanks Em! I met some great people too, it was really fun staying in the jungle lodges and bonding with like minded people. I would absolutely recommend booking this project, you won’t regret it!
