I gained lots of skills in my time in Lombok. I gained confidence in travelling in a new country as solo female traveler, had the best time working with the turtles and met people from all over the world. If you are considering an IVHQ trip, do it!

I enjoyed doing my project in Lombok as I was able to be immersed into a very different culture then what I am used to. having the villa in the village allowed volunteers to become acquainted with the neighbors and truly experience the kindness of the people around us. If someone is hesitant to join, I would recommend they jump right in, as the support system is incredible, particularly the local team, who despite being complete strangers 2 weeks ago, immediately made me feel welcome and a part of their volunteer family. It can be scary going in not knowing what to expect, but volunteers are truly supported for all their needs.
