Julia went on a 3 week volunteering trip to Isabela Island of the Galapagos, in Ecuador. She worked at Campo Duro, a tranquil camping getaway, where tourists stay in tents with views of beautiful gardens and eat at a delicious restaurant. She helped out in the restaurant and with the tortoises living in this reserve, as well as spent some time with the giant tortoises at the Breeding Center. In addition to the tortoises, Julia had an opportunity to explore the island and see giant marine iguanas, sea lions and snorkel with the white-tipped sharks. Julia also went on a day trip to hike up to the giant crater of the Sierra Negra volcano and the calderas of Volcan Chico. Check out her video of the giant tortoises "running" towards their lunch!
