Hi, my name is Kayti Sayles.
During the project at the donkey sanctuary, I carried out daily feeding routines. Throughout the day, I carried out manure picking around the enclosure, I also cleaned the visitor facilities ready for tourists and packed pellets in bags to sell to the public.
During my free time, I thoroughly enjoyed a snorkelling trip. This gave me the opportunity to observe different aquatic animals, which also allowed me to develop my knowledge further to aid in my animal management course.
Thanks to Erasmus+, professionally I learned to be able to understand and gain an insight into the different animal welfare guidelines in a different country compared to the UK. Personally, I had the opportunity to cater for my peers, which gave me a new experience in having the ability to cook for a large group.
