Ever been hit on by a sea lion? Flirted with a booby? Explored lava tubes, swam with sharks, or gotten altitude sickness from a handsome immigration officer? In this full-color, not-so-typical memoir, scientist-turned-storyteller Adelia Ritchie takes readers on a wildly entertaining and visually stunning journey through the wonders of Ecuador-from volcano-rimmed Quito to the surreal, wildlife-rich Galápagos Islands. Alongside a lively group of expat adventurers, she encounters sea turtles, blue-footed showoffs, lava lizards, karaoke bars, marine iguanas, and the world's most romantic boat captain. Packed with photos, wit, and wonder, Quito and the Galápagos Islands is part field guide, part personal diary, and all heart.
