Earthwatch Travelogues
Every time I start leafing through the new Earthwatch catalog, I start thinking about which trip I'd like to do next. Once I begin to settle on two or three, I go to the Internet and try to find someone who has done it before to see what their experience was like. The trip reports and travelogues are frustratingly hard to find sometimes.So, I got the idea to start up a web page that had a collection of travelogues done by past Earthwatch participants. I can't tell you anything about these people or their expreiences--your mileage may vary--but I've found reading these reports interesting and useful. I hope you will as well.
For each expedition, I've tried to link to the official Earthwatch Briefing web page, and included the dates the volunteer was a participant (so you'll know how old the report is). The expeditions are arranged alphabetically by country.
If you know of an expedition report, trip diary, or travelogue that should be included here, please let me know.
