Galapagos in Pictures

I arrived in the Galapagos Islands exactly a year ago today. Here’s a collection of my favorite pictures from my three months living on Isla Isabela and exploring the other islands of the archipelago.

January 13, 2016 in Nature, Photography, Travel.
Time moves strangely here. Fast and slow simultaneously. . On one hand it seems like just days ago that a galah first screamed at me from its perch on high. On the other, it feels like I’ve lived my whole life under the weight of their pink-eyed stare and relentless scolding. . And now, this side of the 1st of November, the days are beginning to speed by in a relentless blur. Until I want to perch up on a branch of my own and yell at it to stop, to slow down just a bit. . To explain that five weeks is simply not enough. Not enough time to finish my studies. To say goodbye to the birds that have stolen a bit of my heart and more than a bit of my sanity. To take my last sunset walk across this beautiful, dusty landscape. . To explain, quite simply, that I’m not ready to go.
