On the surface, Nusa Lembongan is all turquoise water, white sand, and laid-back island vibes. But for the hundreds of cats and dogs that call this island home, life hasn’t always been so easy. With no local vet, basic care and sterilisation were out of reach, until Donna stepped in.
In this episode, I sit down with Donna, founder of Paws of Lembongan, to hear how she built a volunteer-run organisation that’s changing the lives of animals across Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan. We talk about the challenges of running an animal rescue on a remote island, the heartwarming stories that keep her going, and how travelers and listeners everywhere can be part of the solution.
If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to live in paradise with purpose, this conversation will inspire you.
