It's 930am and I'm sitting in a hammock next to Silke listening to music (on my awesome iPad which I now cannot live without...thanks Andy!) and reliving the most amazing last 3 weeks. The group has gone to hoe vine roots (joke in there somewhere) but ... Read more >

La Chiva. No, its not a goat but neither is it just a bus taking tourists along the 'Waterfalls Highway'. The Chiva was very brightly coloured in reds, blues and yellows with lots of orange squiggles which made it a very jolly bus to see the waterfalls, ... Read more >

...is officially my new hero! Just spent a good portion of the night screaming, yelling, grabbing and laughing hysterically...best fun I've had in a long time (its a card game with spoons for those who are lost..). I won 2 rounds and was close on winning ... Read more >

....and I'm stoked I've made the decision to leave early to see more of the Galapagos, but have made this place home and met some absolutely amazing people. Miss my aussie buddy Liz and gorgeous Jeanette who left last week. Life here isn't the same without ... Read more >

I've decided to leave the station a week early and spend some time in San Cristobal and Santa Cruz diving. Considering it costs $120 for 2 dives, I'm looking at a fairly expensive week before my flight to Quito on December 18. I'll also have to pay for ... Read more >

...it appears Phil and Steve were getting sick of a rum-fueled Bek at 2am this morning. In all fairness, I was in the doorway, NOT the room... 4 amazing days on tour with 9 peeps from the station and hot showers weren't REMOTELY the highlight! Try ... Read more >

...but that's what today held for me :) After dinner and glorious chocolate cake last night, a few of the boys made a fire to rival any I have seen...top top work by the fire starters! We sat around randomly chatting, then headed to the bar around ... Read more >

And I'll...weed if I want to? Well, it's better than some of the other options for today...
Got up, opened my door (after saying hi to George) and saw a beautiful flower, card and some choccie biccies from Christina and Silke - friends from ... Read more >

After another awesome day of diving and snorkling yesterday, our group got taxis back to the station and even though we left behind hot showers and most joys of a normal life (!) it felt like coming home. Dare I say...it's nice to be back :) This ... Read more >

What a weekend. Phenomenal. Spectacular. Wild. Breathtaking. Four amazing dives at Kicker Rock which is just 30mins by boat from port. Kicker Rock is a sheer walled cone rising out of the sea...only accessible by boat. On Saturday Phil and I were ... Read more >

....and it was phenomenal!!
Our group headed out in taxis (well, trucks with flatbeds that we all piled into) and spent the morning at Puerto Chino...a beach about 30mins from the station. We sat in the sun, walked the beach, walked the rocks ... Read more >

Considering a fair few peeps got stuck into the Pilsner and rum last night, I managed to get out of it pretty unscathed. I was very conscious that today involved an entire morning of hoeing...ridding an area of more raspberry vines - we had some stunning ... Read more >

...cause his owl is here in the Galapagos. We were chopping down more raspberry vines this morning with machetes (i swear the vines have minds of their own and attack me at every opportunity) and we found an owl sleeping in the hollow of a tree. Super ... Read more >

It’s amazing how quickly you adapt to the habitat you’re in. We flew from Leticia in the Amazon Jungle to Quito, Ecuador (via Bogota) and it felt weird being in a city again.
Ecuador is the 4th country we’re visiting out of 9 on this trip. It feels ... Read more >
