This week in the donkey sanctuary we have been mostly alone the two of us, without other volunteers, because we know already what to do in our daily job. Apart from clean and feed the donkeys we have to explain to the tourist the donkeys’ history on the island, and we do a small tour around the different stables with the babies and old or sick donkeys. After the tour, they can buy some pellets to feed them, donkey souvenirs or drinks (it is really hot there).

Moreover, we have been on the 11th Coastal Clean Up as volunteers. Dos Playa was assigned to us, a beach inside Arikok National Park, where we were given a pair of gloves, bags, a couple of drinks, some snacks and really good company. Many local people was with us and the atmosphere was great! Even the rangers of the park were having fun driving us through the difficult roads where we couldn’t go with our cars. To be honest, instead of driving they were doing a rally, but it was really fun!!

When we finished the Coastal Clean Up, we took advantage of being in the park for free and we visited the rest of it. We entered in two different caves with some paintings and many bats due to its darkness. It was great to discover the park in this way and we enjoyed a lot.
As we said in our previous testimony, we are doing the open water scuba diver course. This week we will finish and we will get a certificate to dive all over the world! We are loving this experience and we recommend everybody to do it as it’s an amazing experience!  |
