EXPERIENCE #43: PUTTING DOWN MY DEPOSIT FOR MY FIRST WHALE BASED ADVENTURE

Last Christmas after coming to terms with the fact that I was now living with my mother again, extremely poor and unemployed at probably the worst time of the year, on a whim I applied to join a research group in Sierra Leone collecting data on calving and breeding humpback whales.

Surprisingly I was accepted and my name was penciled in for the August to September slot. However the charity asked for a £100 deposit for my place which at the time I had no way whatsoever of paying.

Now that I'm bringing home the bacon it's a completely different story though and so today I sent my deposit off and secured my place!
