Bucket List..Elephant Trip
Hi Folks. Rather than wonder, thought why not. Life is to be Lived. “SO COME’ ON”
I have a trip planned for November for 2 weeks, volunteering at Elephant Nature Park Chang Mei. Rather than go alone wondered if maybe a lady with the same passion could be interested.... You would be a non smoker or vaper, would not need a lot of make up to look and feel nice, natural is good, the hard part, thinking 65 to 75 also fairly fit to be able to help with the-volunteering and work not hard but a requirement.
.Can I pay no sorry certainly can share all expenses, hotels meals trips etc with pleasure.
Please if interested get in touch,I have been before so know the drill. It’s great fun,lovely people variety of different animals. Really is a Bucket list Blast.Approx cost 4K ish

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.7% ... It is complicated
