She wrote to tell Travellers about her experience:

In my life I have been fortunate enough to travel all over the world, experience many cultures, see amazing sights and meet many wonderful people. However the time I spent in Malaysia this year as a volunteer in the Rehabilitation program will stay with me forever. What an amazing animal, so intelligent, playful, trusting, and human!

It was such an honour to be part of such a committed team of people intent on helping and protecting the plight of these most amazing, vulnerable creatures. The program itself is quite physical but at the end of the day you feel truly satisfied that in some small way you have contributed and that in itself . I doubt any other program would offer you such a close-up experience, I will continue to raise awareness of how the potential existence of the orang-utans is under threat and hope the program continues to be as successful as it is. Thank you to Travellers Worldwide and Sepilok Orang-utan Centre for this opportunity.
