Hi there,
I have recently been thinking about my goals (professional and other) a lot and I have pretty much come to the conclusion that running (or rather working at) an animal sanctuary would be my absolute dream job. In the best case scenario I could even include psychotherapy with animals etc.
Animal sanctuaries are shelters for rescued animals (pets and farm animals) in case anyone was wondering; their purpose is to give the animals the life they deserve and care for them in an actual humane way.
Now, I realize that this profession does not entail great income and often relies on governmental support or donations etc.
I have been trying to find internships at such animal sanctuaries (like "Stiftung ATLANTIS" in Germany) but I have been struggling with a) finding animal sanctuaries that are within a range of accessibility for me (I live in Luxembourg/Netherlands) and b) hire interns.
Maybe someone has some experience in that/knows something they could help me with?
Thanks!
