Only a few days left! After 20 weeks my
adventure here is over, it has been amazing, with a lot of nice experiences and
amazing people!

Besides having a nice time some work had to be done as well of
course, but this never felt like actual work because it is so relaxed and nice.
Walking on the beaches looking for turtles, tracks and nests, terrapin trapping
and building a terrapin and tortoise pen, these are the activities I have done
the last 20 weeks which was lovely! I have seen a lot of turtles and
fortunately even hatchlings.

Flying the drone was also a lot of fun but not
always as easy due to weather conditions. Unfortunately I have also encountered
some poached turtles which was very sad, but it is almost inevitable when you
work in conservation. But this made me more interested in
the turtles and very excited whenever there was an up and down track instead of
only up, at least we knew the turtle made it back into the sea safely.
In a few days I fly back to the cold and wet
Netherlands and I know for sure that I will miss the nice relaxed lifestyle,
the sun and all the people here!
