My Travel Story

Hi! My name is Melissa, I'm a 20 year old college student currently studying zoology. My entire family is from South Africa and I've always wanted to work with animals, especially in South Africa. One of my idols, Kevin Richardson shared an opportunity to go to Botswana and spend 9 days putting GPS collars on wild lions. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and one of my biggest dreams that I wish to achieve, not to mention would help me attain a good job once I graduate. Anything helps! Thank you so much in advance!
