Hi my name is Lucy, I’m from Huddersfield and I went on a project in Aruba.
During the project I worked at the donkey sanctuary and at the vets where I assisted in operations and consultations.
During my free time I did lots of activities like horse riding and explored the island by bus.
Professionally thanks to this project I’ve learnt how to prepare animals for operations and how to care for the aruban donkeys.
Personally I’ve learnt how to speak a little Spanish and Papiamento which helps when meeting people, travelling and working.
