I am going to freakin' Ecuador & the Galapagos Islands for the summer! How sweet is that?! Just got the assignment from Wilderness Ventures, the same company I worked for last summer, leading wilderness trips for teens.
Here's the official (short) description:
Adventure in the wilds of Ecuador while assisting local communities. See the Galapagos as Darwin first saw them and swim along side sea creatures with no fear of humans. Build a school library high in the Andes, then on Cotopaxi, bicycle downhill through several life zones. Live in a tiny Amazon village while volunteering at an animal rescue center. Raft the legendary Napo River, soak in the Papallacta Hot Springs and visit the Otavalo Indian Market.
yee-haw!!
