He was really helpful and had access to a lot of the last minute deals. We sailed on a boat called the Floreana… it was amazing. Small boat (16 passenger max) and a step above the most basic which I understand is important for having a good guide that speaks English. I can tell you much more about it if you like. :) He also gave us a heads up about the Amazon deal… we weren’t even looking for it at the time. Off season is pretty great for fewer people and lower prices. Plus, I don’t think we could handle the equator in full sun and heat!

I’m so amazed by what you are doing. How on earth did you hear about the place that you had to take a bunch of canoes to get to? Surely they don’t have a website!
Also, what company did you use to cruise the Galapagos? It’s really cheap to fly to Quito from DC!
Keep the updates coming :) Be safe!

You have the ability to work from home, so I’ll bet with a bit of creativity, you might could take a little hiatus yourself (?). Thanks again for offering to lend us those small “walkie-talkies” for our trip. That was extremely thoughtful.

Chao!

We met a family traveling for 1 year with 3 kids… I bet Maggie would be a great little traveler :) PS- Happy belated birthday!
