Some stories are just worth sharing, and this is one that totally warmed my heart and made me smile a lot!
A few weeks ago, David kindly gave up his time to help us with our Adopt an Elephant stall at Tesco. Whilst he was there, he adopted one of our elephants himself, but rather than taking her home, he decided to take her on holiday.
And what a holiday our elephant has had!
I’ll let David tell you all about their adventures in his own words…
“We adopted a Milly Smiles elephant recently and took it on an adventure to India, Bhutan and Nepal, with a short layover in Dubai.
She has been named Haathi (Hindi for Elephant..).
She was blessed by Monks, experienced dodgy cab rides, chaotic streets scenes, high altitude treks, been into Monasteries, Stupa’s, Temples, Palaces and Fortresses.
She has been patted by numerous hikers from around the globe, and most of all, created ‘smiles’ wherever she went.”
A huge thank you to David, for not only giving up his time to help us fundraise, but also for taking Haathi on such a wonderful adventure and sharing it with us.
It is lovely to know that when our elephants go to their ‘forever home’ they really do become part of the family!
