Eye Trip: October 2009
http://jotaecuador.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 9, 2009. A Walk through the Jet Stream. 50 mph winds, sideways rain, 10 inches of mud, and near zero visibility. That pretty much describes 3 days of my life two weekends ago when two other volunteers (Andy and Gina) and I went on an insane hike in Podocarpus National Park, about 20 minutes south of Loja. The next day we trudged along at a very sad pace, our feet soaking wet and cold inside our big rubber Wellington boots. The wind was nothing short of fierce and the rain pummeled our...

Eye Trip: April 2010
http://jotaecuador.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 27, 2010. From the Dark Ages - Part 1. Amidst the Dark Ages of my blog (i.e. 2009) where I posted a whopping 3 entries the entire year, my family made their way down from NY for a two-week Ecuadorian visit. And now thinking back, I realized that I never posted any pictures for all you Eye Trip readers out there (there must be at least 3 or 4 of you! Mom, Sis, and I on the ship. Which we almost missed since our travel agent booked us the wrong flight! Lots of volcanic rock. Picture perfect ...

Thursday, August 26, 2010. A Whale of a Time. Sorry went a little overboard with the number of pics this post). Janet, Emily and Adam outside the Hosteria Mandala where we stayed. Gardens at the Mandala. We stayed in the Seahorse cabana. Beer and the Beach - the perfect combo. Puerto Lopez street scene. Let´s have a look. Swarming frigate birds and pelicans trying to get their share of today´s catch. Many fisherman here just have a simple canoe that they paddle out into the ocean to fish. 1 2 3 Push!

Eye Trip: December 2010
http://jotaecuador.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 9, 2010. The Andy Hood and Gina Collignon Memorial Lagunas Hike. Just head down at kilometer 6 towards Rumizshitana and you'll meet up with the highway where you can catch a bus back to Loja," said Enrique the guard. "Awesome," we thought since this would shorten our return trip significantly and it would be neat to see a new area. "And it's easy to follow the trail all the way down? Luckily, I'm still alive now to tell this story. Angela, unluckily, didn't make it. Just kidding. Visit...

Monday, September 27, 2010. Two Years of Photos. Over the last two years I've been collecting some of the best photos of the areas where my organization, Nature and Culture International, carries out conservation and sustainable development work. So, I thought it would be nice to share them with you! Some were taken by me, and others by some of my coworkers. Enjoy! Baskets woven by women in the Peruvian Amazon, now on sale at the San Diego Zoo and Natural History Museum. Look into my eyes. Gray-cheeked p...
