Meet the Adventure Team
Saludos! (Greetings!) And welcome to the Galapagos Islands E-Travel Logs! My name is Paul Hurteau and my partners name is Lilia Cai. And YOU are about to travel to the Galapagos Islands with US -- from right inside your classroom! We'll be visiting several schools on Santa Cruz, San Cristobal and Isabela Islands. Along the way, we'll explore the many wonders of this famous volcanic archipelago, get to know children who live there and, of course, encounter its many amazing animals. You can read more about Lilia and I below, then click forward to begin the adventure. Happy trails!
