Going back to 1995 I was studying in Bath University, and joined the marine conservency group; but can't remember why my membership lapsed. Probably one change of address too many. After uni I did ambit of conservation work (land based) but also stopped when studies took over life.
My work life balance is definitely tilted towards work (Waay toooo much) and I need to readjust. One idea would be to use my holidays to volunteer for marine conservation work - but landlocked Switzerland does not have too much
Does anyone know of a good conservation society that might be open to having international volunteers for a couple of weeks? Ideally based on a sail boat to reduce the impact on oceans. This was brought home to me when in new Zealand we were surrounded by dolphins when sailing (official pleasure boats saw none)
Of course if it is close to somewhere to go mermaiding or learning to dive then so much better
