Elephant Sanctuary in Sri Lanka

 

It’s difficult to imagine a more exciting conservation opportunity in a more beautiful location, set near the small town of Kegalle, amongst beautiful, lush green countryside. The project is an important part of wider efforts to protect elephant numbers on the island. Without the support of international volunteers and charitable donations these efforts would flounder, so bring a lot of energy

Situated just off the southern cost of Thailand, Koh Tao is regarded as one of Thailand's best kept secrets boasting spectacular sites, miles of white sandy beaches, lush jungle and world class diving opportunities.

Some schools are affected by pujas (festivals) which can give you some free time to fit in some trekking before school starts again.
