So much love for this place
July 31, 2025by: HallyProgram: Award-Winning Grassroots Internship ProgramsI thoroughly enjoyed my time here at sos animal. This organization is run by people who truly care about each animal on property. I met the most amazing people from all over the world while being in a breathtaking place.
Great Time
July 27, 2025by: AllisonProgram: Award-Winning Grassroots Internship ProgramsMy time in Greece was great; I loved my supervisors and colleagues who were all so kind and welcoming. There is so much to do and see in the country, I did some kind of trip pretty much every weekend. The cost of living is pretty inexpensive compared to other European countries, and every one speaks English if Greek is a struggle.
Learning in Limuru
June 25, 2025by: PreeshaProgram: Award-Winning Grassroots Internship ProgramsKenya was never on top of my list for tourism. Initially overlooked, but later missed, my time in Kenya was rewarding and necessary. The beautiful people, welcoming environments, unbelievable nature, and support that came with the internship made this program important. Now I’m just waiting to go back.
