It was time to depart the Galapagos Islands. After a breath-taking series of adventures in the remote archipelago little did we know we were about to embark upon our longest journey of the whole trip. After a quick breakfast we were shuttled to the airport where to our dismay we were met with horrendous queues. […]
It’s nice to be finally getting around to publishing these snaps – the photos I took while on the Galapagos Islands are some of the ones I’m most proud of so it’s nice for them to see the light of day, albeit on this obscure corner of the internet. A number of photos are coming from […]

This is considered to be the oldest of the Galapagos Islands and supposedly now in decline, effectively dying as it drifts further and further away from the heart of the archipelago over the course of millions of years. We won’t be throwing […]
