hi! Could you show us your favourite moodboard? ^^
Hello Hello! This is such a good question!! So good, in fact, that I don't know the answer! I'm assuming you meant a moodboard of mine; I have a few that I've made that hold a special place in my heart, and others that I love because they're underrated, and some that are just really pretty! I've been thinking about it all day, and I think it's between these two!!

Heyo!!
I reached another milestone 💃 and I’m so happy about it!! This tiny blog has grown so much this year and I want to celebrate with everybody. 🥳
For this celebration I wasn’t sure what to do so I decided on a lot of things (read the warnings on my pinned post before interacting thankss)
🎨I’m continuing the chibi art from my 200 follower celebration. It can be for DC, Marvel, Cevans or Seb Stan characters. I also started making tiny animations, so those are included too!!
🖼 I love ‘making’ the AI arts, so you can send me weird ideas for them and the type of art, which includes Etching, mystical, dark fantasy, baroque, festive, psychic, pastel, vibrant, steampunk, fantasy art, Ukiyoe, synth wave, HD or no style (THEYRE SO MANY OH JEE). AND HEADERS 💜
📚I’ve read way too many fan fics, so I can give random fic recs!! mostly for the characters I’ve made fic lists for.
🐙 You can just come and talk to me about stuff or send cursed posts. I don’t mind 🙈🙈
💃 Ask games (Choose you mutuals, would you rather etc.)
BASICALLY ITS JUST FOR FUN FOR ALL because I’m bored.
IM SO GRATEFUL FOR EVERYBODY WHO HELPED ME MAKE THIS ACCOUNT THIS BIG AND JUST BEING HERE

Tagging people who I think might be interested (ITS ONLY LETTING ME TAG 50 PEOPLE :( )

I was tagged by my Greek Goddess @thespiritofvexation ♥️🧡🥁 Thank you very much I was missing tag games!
1. Why did you choose your url?
Here comes again... I was saving some Dleep Purple pics and I found some pics from Ian Gillan's wedding in 1984 and among these pics there was Ritchie dressed in pastel colours and I thought "Oh, Ritchie BlackLESS" and that's it.
2. Any side blogs? if you have them, name them and why you have them.
Well, @incorrect-deepurple is one (omg is dead I'm so sorry you all) I created it back in the day because I thought It could be fun and it was. And @bluefires-oforc is the other one. I have that one because I love Rutger Hauer so much but he didn't fit in my "theme".
3. How long have you been on tumblr?
Since 2016 but not with this blog. When I started Tumblr I had a blog called M4r7in4 but I don't know why Tumblr deleted it (because that url name was utterly horrible that's why hahdhdhsj). Then in 2018 I started with Ritchieblackless.
4. Do you have a queue tag?
Nope, because I don't know why I would have one for... For me they are kinda useless.. at least for me 'cause I don't use them.
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?
Because I was so obsessed with Deep Purple and this blog was meant to be another Deep Purple ruler based mostly in Gillmore BUT THEN SOME THINGS HAPPENED and here I am running a Blog dedicated to Cozy Powell.
6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?
The Icon usually chooses me... is like: "I'm a very gorgeous, heaven sent-pic use me use me use me use me" and here I am changing my icon each time you blink.
7. Why did you choose your header?
Personal reasons... >;) cozyissohot
9. How many mutuals do you have?
A few and I love them with my entire heart ❤
10. How many followers do you have?
350 I believe... We are a small community here.
11. How many people do you follow?
200+ I think
12. Have you ever made a shitpost?
Of course.... who the hell doesn't make a shitpost? It's like brushing your teeth.
13. How often do you use tumblr each day?
I use Tumblr enough until I reach that moment when I close the app I open it again...
14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?
Of course.... Mostly are my fault because I tend to be a little pushy without realizing it... I mean I like to say things with pun intended... I'm terrible I know I'm trying to change I swear. I have a very bad temper I'm sorry you all I'm so sorry
15. How do you feel about "you need to reblog this" posts?
Well, I usually look at those post with a "ew" face. I mean not pun intended (I swear) but most of them are political or LGTB+ or Jewish, Feminist or Black Lives Matter posts and is not like I'm not with them, I support them of course but I don't need to reblog those post everyday at every hour to hold my posture. I mean the worst part is that if you don't reblog those posts you're cruel or you're careless (Well I can't care less about feminism really) or mean and they judge you before knowing you or even your opinions and I'm not exaggerating, that is what happens.
16. Do you like tag games?
YEAH They are so much fun.
17. Do you like ask games?
YEAAAAAH When you get them is very distracting and interactive.
18. Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?
Err... I don't really know what this means but I think that my mutuals are famous in their own way <3.
19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?
Mmmh, I don't think so, no... But I love my mutuals in a platonic way because they all are so sexy and nice.

Do you feel comfortable wearing tube tops? Noooo. You’ll never see me in a tube top. I don’t even wear tank tops. Has something someone said today annoyed you? Not so far, ha. I haven’t interacted with anyone, yet. It’s only 4:33AM. Can you hear the crickets chirping at night? No. Do you like listening to new music, or just sticking to your favorites? I like new music, but I do love listening to my good ol’ favorites. I have a playlist that consists of a variety of music, new and old, from various genres and decades, that I just click shuffle and listen. So far, where have you been on vacation? I haven’t gone anywhere this year, yet.
Did you ever feel that there was something you couldn't tell anyone? Yep. Old stuff and ongoing, current stuff. Do you tend to gossip, even if you don't mean it to cause harm? It does happen. I’ll see something on social media about someone I know and tell my mom or brother. Family gossip stuff. Not to talk shit, but it’ll be like, “omg did you see what so and so posted/did/whatever.” Or like if someone is pregnant or broke up or whatever. My main gossip is celebrity stuff, though. ha. When was the last time you were bitten by a bug? I don’t recall. It’s been a long time, thankfully. Have you ever gotten your hair permed? No. Do you have a pair of sunglasses that are worth over $200? I don’t have any sunglasses. I don’t wear ‘em, but if I did I sure wouldn’t spend that much. Not anywhere close. Would you ever go on a trip to Europe? Absolutely. I’d love to. There’s so many places I’d love to visit. Are you brave when it comes to trying new foods? Nopeee. I have the same few foods I rotate between. It’s a small list. When was the last time you saw your significant other? I’m single. Is there a friend that you can always go to for advice? I can go to my mom. Have you ever been to a town/place where the people were just creepy? No. Ew, I hope I never go somewhere like that. What's the fastest you've ever driven in a car? I’ve never driven a car. If you see a piano, are you tempted to go over and play a little something? I would. Especially because it’s been over 10 years since I last played. Is there someone you know who bakes amazing sweets? Yeah. Are you ashamed of your singing voice? I can’t sing for shit, but it doesn’t stop me from singing to myself or around my family. I try to sound as decent as I can, ha. I’m not like those people on American Idol they show that can’t sing well at all, but they think they can and they’re just on there wailing. lol. Has anyone teased you with the "K-I-S-S-I-N-G" song? Yeah. Have you ever had a dream where you could understand a foreign language? No. That would be weird. What time is it where you are? 4:45AM. Do you have anything important to do tomorrow? I have my Bible study stuff. Have you ever owned a beanbag chair? Yeah, when I was a kid we had one. If you own a laptop, do you have a case for it? I do. What was the last movie you purchased on DVD? I don’t even remember. I haven’t bought a physical DVD in yearssss. Are you a fan of retro things? Yeah. Do you do your own laundry? No. I need help with that, which my mom does. Have you ever used pastels? Yes. Is there a song you're listening to at the moment? No. Would you be considered to be knowledgeable about World War 2? Not really. Have you ever been in possession of a hundred dollar bill? Yes. Is there one food you cannot give up, even though you know it's unhealthy? I don’t eat healthy at all, but the worst thing I eat is probably ramen. I love it, though. Will you bother having a party for your next birthday? Nah, I’m old. I just like doing something lowkey with my parents and brother. Although, last year my aunt and cousin came over for a game night and cheesecake for my birthday and that was fun. I’d be up for that again. If you're with someone right now, do you think it will last? Who was the last person you flipped off? I have no idea. That’s not something I really do. Like, ever. Do you currently have a job? No. What was the last movie that was unable to capture your interest? Hmm. I don’t remember. Have you heard of the Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers? The name rings a bell. Do you have something to do, that you would rather not do? There’s a few things. Are you, in any way, feeling hopeless right now? I’ve felt that way for a long time. Is there someone you just need to call and talk to? No. I don’t like talking on the phone. Are you one of those people who can eat anything and not gain a pound? Yes. I used to like that about myself, but it’s a problem for me, currently. These past few years I’ve lost weight due to health stuff and as someone who was already thin...yeah, not good. It’s caused problems for me. Are you nails painted at the moment? No. It’s been a few years since I’ve painted my nails. Is there a song you've been listening to lately on repeat? There’s a few songs lately that I always like to listen when listening to music. I just hit shuffle on my playlist, but there’s a few I like to just add to queue to make sure they come up. Lately, it’s been a couple Billie Eilish songs. Do you know who you're planning to ask to your grad prom? I’m 30 years old. I did go to prom; though, but I didn’t have a date. I just went with friends. When was the last time you went shopping? A few weeks ago. Is there anyone who did something absolutely hilarious today? Not so far. Again, it’s really early and I haven’t interacted with anyone, yet. Are you having one of those days where you feel unattractive? “one of those days” is everyday for me, old sport. I feel unattractive and I am unattractive. Do you like hot dogs? No. Do you ever get bored of your music collection and get new songs? I like to check out new music and add it to my playlist to add to the rotation, but I love my old stuff, too. Have you ever bought a designer purse? I’ve been gifted one. What's the limit on how much you would pay for a shirt? I’d say like $30. I mean, I’d obviously prefer cheaper if I can find a good sale or have a good coupon, but if not then yeah about $30. Would you ever like to see the Walk of Fame? Sure. Is it currently humid where you are? No. Have you been in any sort of physical pain today? Of course. Have you ever heard of the German movie Das Boot? Nope. Who were the last people you hung out with? My mom and brother. Has someone ever called you "obnoxious"? Not that I’m aware of. Most commonly, do you obey rules, or break them? I’m more of a rule follower. Do you like making funny faces in pictures? Nah. Is there something you look back on and go "I can't believe I did that"? A lot of things... Are you good at offering advice? I think I used to be. At least, my friends seemed to think so since I was the one they always came to for advice. I wouldn’t say I am now, though. No one should ask me anything. When was the last time you had to resort to a map? I just use Google Maps if I need directions. I’ve never used an actual map. Your significant other: have you told them you love them lately? What was the last thing to confuse you? Life. How many different colors have you dyed your hair? 3. Do you know someone who always spells "bored" like "board"? No. Are you wearing make up right now? No. I haven’t worn makeup in over a year. Is there a phrase that you use a lot? Words and phrases, yeah. Are you old enough to vote? I’ve been old enough to vote for over 10 years now. Do you have a favorite pair of earrings? Yes, the rose gold Minnie Mouse earrings I got for Christmas. Have you ever been to Disneyworld/Disneyland? I’ve been to Disneyland a few times. Have you dated someone more than twice? Not more than twice, but twice. Are you a fan of Keira Knightley? I’m indifferent. Have you ever resorted to alcohol to make you feel better? It never helped. Maybe briefly, but it was always short lived. Do you own a full-length mirror? Yeah. Do you ever go on PerezHilton.com to get all the celeb gossip? I see his tweets. Have you heard about Mel Gibson's rant/freakout? Yeah. That was ages ago. Do you wish your bedroom was bigger? Yes, that would be nice. My room is quite small and I have too much stuff. Are you aware of the significance of the date April 14th, 1912? I am, actually. Do you ever just lay back and watch the stars? No. Lately have you had much time to relax? You would think so since I spend majority of my time at home in bed. I wouldn’t call it relaxing, though. Not for me. I have health stuff, physically and mentally, and feel like crap, so. Did anything important/changing happen to you in March 2009? That was over 10 years ago, I don’t remember. I guess nothing that important happened. Nothing memorable, at least. Have you ever felt like a "new person"? Yes, but not in a good way. These past few years have changed me and not for the better. Do you own any expensive jewelry? Yes. What size is your TV? 32 inch, I think. Do you occasionally creep on people on Facebook? Nah. I don’t spend a lot of time on Facebook and what little time I do spend I’m just scrolling through my feed “liking” stuff and sharing an occasional post. I won’t say that I’ve never done that, though. ha. Who hasn’t. Has there been someone in your life that just wouldn't leave you alone? Yeah, in the past. Do you hate to use public bathrooms? Yes. I very rarely do. Do you find most remixes of songs to be good or bad? It really just depends. I’ve heard good ones and I’ve heard shitty ones. There have been some I liked better than the original. Write something to someone who means a lot to you: Nah. I’ll just say goodnight!

365 Creative Challenge
2020 has been a hell of a ride. But I want to try something different for 2021. I want to get back to my creative roots. I used to write all the time, I wanna get back in that habit.
So, here’s the idea:
I have created 365 (and then some) prompts for me in 2021. The aim is, each day I will pick one at random (except 1. and 365) and I will do something creative with that prompt.
I might write something, cook something, sew something. It might not get completely finished that same day because #life and also my job is going to keep me busy. But the point of it is that I will have 365 days of doing SOMETHING creative.

Having dominated majority of the first half of 2019, today the King of Drip releases the video for his single “Baby Birkin,” from his debut#1 album Drip Or Drown 2, with a surprise appearance by social media star and model, Jordyn Woods. The summer vibe, directed by Spike Jordan showcases a field of women, which includes Jordyn wearing stylish pastel looks while all toting the luxurious Birkin bag. All the while, the fashion maven gives us looks for days. Enjoy this video stream below after the jump and please share this with friends.
Drip Or Drown 2 landed on the charts as the #1 Hip-Hop Album across the nation and #3 on the Billboard Top 200 Charts, nearly 444K units sold with about 661 million streams to date! The critically acclaimed Atlanta rapper has been making the rounds, receiving the likes of New York Times, Pitchfork, GQ, Billboard, Complex and more. Collaborating with some of the biggest artists in the world including Chris Brown, Mariah Carey, Drake, Usher and more, there seems to be no stopping the new age rap star.
About Gunna
When the history books open up, “Drip” will forever be associated with the meteoric and platinum rise of Gunna. Dubbed “The King of Drip” and pegged “to take over the rap world” by Interview, he generated over one billion cumulative streams and achieved one platinum and two gold certifications within a year. Now, he submerges the whole game in “Drip” on his 2019 full-length debut, Drip or Drown 2 [YSL Records/300 Entertainment], and singles “One Call” and “Speed It Up.”
Born and raised in College Park, GA, he immediately gravitated towards innovative hip-hop from the likes of OutKast, Cam’Ron, and Future. Signed to YSL Records, he famously teamed up with label boss Young Thug and Travis Scott on “Floyd Mayweather” from 2016’s Jeffery. Shortly after, he dropped the seminal mixtape Drip Season. 2017 saw him serve up the sequel Drip Season 2 and Drip or Drown. He ascended to superstardom during 2018. Drip Season 3 put up unbelievable numbers, earned Drake’s fandom, and garnered looks from Rolling Stone, GQ, Vogue, Complex, and more. Not to mention, he joined forces with frequent collaborator Lil Baby for the collaborative Drip Harder, which bowed at #4 on the Billboard Top 200. The project yielded the platinum Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 hit “Drip Too Hard” and gold “Never Recover” [with Drake]. He teamed up with Travis Scott and NAV for the ASTROWORLD favorite “Yosemite,” Mariah Carey for “Stay Long Love You,” and Metro Boomin for “Space Cadet,” which they performed on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Plus, he participated in fashion shows for Pyer Moss, Off-White, Yohji Yamamoto, and more.

My Actual Best Friend
So this is unedited and probably makes no sense but I just want to say something. The best friend I'll probably ever make is my friend Hatter and here's our story (Told how i saw it at least) cause why the freak not. (If your confused who I'm talking about I'm referring to @therealzombiehatter Basically it started in April(?), were not sure when; all I know was that it was while I was in Spring Break in 2016, he posted on his profile asking if anyone wanted to play 21 questions. And I messaged him saying something like, "Hey you said you wanted to play 21 questions." And he said yes. So not sure if he knows this but I was a huge fan of his work and I thought of him as this "huge Wattpadder who is so cool and he'll probably forget me after this, though maybe we might become friends." Keep in mind I probably had no more than 30 followers (Which blew my mind) and he had probably between 100-200 at the time. To give perspective his biggest story was "Beauty and The Freak" which if if you don't kn't know it, It was a Punk!Jack x Pastel!Mark that was discontinued eventually. And I had JUST started "Hitorinbo Envy." So that was awhile back. Btw, if you're wondering how I found his page is that this book was I was following entered Hatter's "Beauty and the Freak Contest" and I looked at his page and I was like. Let me read it, and than I did and followed him and the book. Than I saw he posted on AO3 and I commented telling him if he ever needed any help posting on their as he was new to it that I would be happy to help. He never responded. (Well he did nearly a year later after we became friends XD) Getting back to the story, we started playing and we got a few questions in than Hatter had to leave. Then we didn't really talk for maybe 3 weeks. Than one day, I was having a really bad day and I was about to break down and I hated the world and I had never felt more alone and without anyone So in a fit I messaged him apologizing for the long messages, than just straight started venting. (After asking if it was okay) Why would I vent to someone who was barely a friend, It was because I swore I saw on his profile that he said that anyone could message him for advice at any time. Hence why I messaged him. Fun fact: his profile didn't say that. Despite that he responded with good advice and I was glad I didn't scare him off. As time went on we became closer and I've ranted to him many time and 99% of the time he responded quickly with good advice. And at some point he started coming to me for advice, as I had offered, and that kind of put the nail in the coffin that we were friends. We've vented to each other so many times and somehow he hasn't judged me. And I also met Howie and Gen because of him. Two of my other good friends. He invited us all to a game of CAH and we've talked since. I don't think i could have asked for a better group of people to be friends with. And we've become closer, like we have a very deep connection. And frankly I live with the fact that more likely than not I probably would've quit Wattpad by now and be in a deep depression without him with me. Also we have a ship name; Hattissa. We are completely cool with us being shipped XD So I guess this is my thank you to him for the fact that he has dealt with my insanity for more than a year. And in all seriousness, I am beyond thankful that he has ended up in my life. And responded to me that first day or the fact I had the guts to actually vent to someone or talk to him. And I have the absolute privilege to see him become his own person and he's just mad me better person. He helped me feel like I had a purpose because frankly if I can give advice that means that at least I have some use and if someone come to me that means someone likes me. And frankly there's more I want to say but I can't seem to find the words and I know very well I have left things out but hey, that just leaves more stories to tell. So thank you. -Lissa Howie: @howiewantsafedora Gen: @lpsgrrl237

The Secret Life On The Galápagos
Giant tortoises, curious iguanas, birds with blue feet—following in Charles Darwin’s footsteps on a trip to the blissfully isolated islands soothes the soul.

The Sea Star is one of the most magnificent boats on the Galápagos seas, the metal counterpart of a blue whale, glistening in the equatorial sunshine. We’re greeted on the deck by our captain in a gleaming white uniform. Our ship has eight cabins for 16 people, a fully stocked bar in the lounge, and the two jacuzzis bracketing the spacious sun deck offer panoramic views of fluffy, pastel clouds over the horizon. My favourite corner is a mini library by the dining area on the main deck, filled with books about a young naturalist’s discoveries on these islands, including Voyage of the Beagle.
Charles Darwin was 22 years old when, in 1831, he embarked on the HMS Beagle for a two-year expedition that snowballed into an expansive five-year voyage around the globe. He sailed from England to South America and the Galápagos, before heading back home via Australia and South Africa. Darwin filled notebooks with sketches and observations about the unique wildlife he encountered through the course of his journey. Although in five weeks he visited four islands, his interest in the archipelago’s endemic wildlife is what gave birth to his theory of natural selection—that animals adapt to their surroundings in order to survive. The local giant tortoises after which the islands are named caught his attention in particular, and Darwin was fascinated by the way their shells differed slightly, islet to islet. He later also noted how the Galápagos finches’ beaks differed depending on which island they were on, and what food was available to the birds.
***
Before penning ‘On the Origin of Species’, Darwin sailed for the Galápagos on the HMS Beagle (top-right), a British Royal Navy vessel. He famously referred to the islands as “a little world within itself.” The plenitude of species here, rare finches (bottom-left) to mammoth tortoises (bottom-right) and crabs (top-left), back his observation to this day.

Perhaps I had imagined the Galápagos differently, but sailing on the cerulean waters of the Pacific Ocean, hopping on and off the boat, I realised their beauty is more subtle, more quiet. They have a unique position in our world, isolated and with an abundance of endemic fauna, including Darwin’s finches, flightless cormorants, and blue-footed boobies; the marketing advantages of the name not lost on tourist stores in San Cristóbal where “I love boobies” shirts sell like hotcakes. When we disembark on Española Island on our second day on the cruise, I see what Darwin saw. His first impressions were made by these barren black rocks. He wasn’t impressed, saying, “A broken field of black basaltic lava is everywhere covered by a stunted brushwood, which shows little signs of life.” But as we draw nearer, a tail slithers over one of the smoother rocks, and I see the colony of black marine iguanas that was previously camouflaged. They look like miniature statues of Ishiro Honda’s original Godzilla. Of them, Darwin had this to say: “The rocks on the coast abounded with great black lizards, between three and four feet long; and on the hills, an ugly yellowish-brown species was equally common.” This peaceful morning, on Española’s secluded white sand beach, they laze blocking our path and show no signs of moving, so we hopscotch around them until we come face-to-face with a handful of bright orange crabs scuttering over a rock where two sea lions are lounging.
Tourists must tread carefully here. “They’ll only bite if you step on them,” warns Carlos, a young naturalist who grew up on these islands and is our affable guide. Indeed the animals here are the most fearless I’ve ever seen. The turtles hurtle into humans snorkelling in their waters, a bird may land on your head, and the sea lions comically chase people around on beaches where tourists have been warned not to let them touch you. It’s a warped world where the animals are even more fascinated by us than we are by them. Only the giant tortoises I saw on land have any semblance of how we assume animals usually act around humans. They pull their heads back into their shells if you get too close, but tourists still manage to click photos to show how massive they are—some, with their necks extended, are human-sized themselves.

Our week-long cruise allows for plenty of time in the water, much of which we spend snorkelling and kayaking. We take Zodiacs out to Devil’s Crown, the remains of an extinct volcano, and fall backwards into the choppy waters that surround the crown-shaped rock structure, named so because only a devil would wear a crown so crude, so craggy. I immediately see the shadow of reef sharks on the surface below, fish of all sizes, like splatters of paint across the murky canvas, and later on there is the rectangular shadow of a hammerhead on the ocean bed. Swimming peacefully with no nowhere to be next, I relish this rare opportunity of getting up close and personal with the island’s iridescent inhabitants.
Our journey covers the oldest islands on the eastern side of the archipelago, including Santa Fe, Floreana, San Cristóbal, Española and North Seymour. A few days into the trip, on Santa Fe, I see a yellow-hued marine iguana perched on a boulder next to a sea lion who is sleeping in the shade of a cactus. The animals are set against the backdrop of red shrubs, a clutch of green, prickly pear cacti, and an azure sky. It’s the most colour I’ve seen in these lands so far, and the lack of which even Darwin realised, so much so that he wrote how “the plants here have a wretched, weedy appearance.” I did not see one beautiful flower, he had said. Not anymore it seems. Carlos says there are now private gardens outside a few homes in San Cristóbal where residents craving some pop of colour have potted new species, including roses.
***
The day before, we had disembarked on Floreana island, where I had seen the first traces of the humans who once lived here. There is a “post office” on Floreana which is essentially a sturdy, old wooden barrel once used by 18th-century whalers. Sailors would leave their mail in the barrel, to be carried home by other sailors passing by. Tourists still use this stamp-less system, a system that allegedly still works. We retrieve a pack of recently written postcards; there are letters to loved ones from countries around the world. Our group of travellers is from India, Australia, England and North America and the Australians gamely pocket postcards to take back, addressed to residents in Sydney.
Although these lands are far flung, they have a long history of human inhabitation and it’s as strange and mysterious as you’d expect from isolated places. The islands were first discovered by accident in 1535 when a Panamanian bishop named Fray Tomás de Berlanga was blown off course on his way to Peru. The three centuries that followed this discovery saw the archipelago being used as a base by whalers and pirates who ate a large majority of the island’s indigenous tortoises. Almost one lakh tortoises were removed from the islands during this period and the smaller tortoises on Floreana Island were hunted in such large numbers they were thought to be extinct until recently. The larger 200 pound tortoises on the Western Islands were mostly spared because they were harder to sling over the pirate’s shoulders. Later, in the 19th century, after Ecuador had already claimed the Galápagos Islands, they were occupied by a succession of Germans.
The island’s unique habitat, which includes exotic species such as the flightless cormorant (bottom-right) and marine iguanas (top-left), alongside untouched forest cover (bottom-left), is under threat. Hence there are strict regulations in place for cruise holidays (top-right) to the islands.

First to arrive was Dr. Friedrich Ritter and his female companion Dore Strauch, who roamed around in the nude. Ritter had had his teeth preemptively removed because it wasn’t like he was going to find any dentist on the secluded island, and Strauch had to have hers yanked out with kitchen tools they had brought along once they started rotting. They wrote letters about their lives on Floreana, and the trusty barrel mailing system saw these letters make their way back to Berlin where a local newspaper published Ritter’s exploits, making him famous. Tales of their island life led others to follow in their footsteps, and Ritter and Strauch were soon joined by Heinz Wittmer, his pregnant wife, Margret, and Harry, Heinz’s son from his first marriage. They were later joined by a self-proclaimed baroness from Austria who arrived on the islands with two lovers. She was flashy and annoyed Ritter greatly, so when she and Lorenzo, one of her lovers, disappeared from the island, it was assumed that Ritter had something to do with it. Though the baroness’ belongings were afterwards discovered in the area the Wittmers’ lived in, so no one knows what really went down.
Although they are now heavily protected, the Galápagos are still not fully exempt from human strangeness. I hear stories of infringement, of plundering, most recent being that of a tourist who tried to smuggle out four iguanas, wrapped in clothing, in his hand baggage. Most visitors these days, though, come primarily to see these native creatures in their natural habitat and leave their home untouched, a home whose raw, grey beauty Darwin’s thoughtful eye eventually came to appreciate. “The natural history of this archipelago is very remarkable,” he conceded in his later writings, “it seems to be a little world within itself; the greater number of its inhabitants, both vegetable and animal, being found nowhere else.” The islands are indeed incredible, unlike any other. While I was there I didn’t register anything amazing happening. It isn’t as dramatic as seeing a lion make a kill in the African bush, or as watching the mist part at the top of Toubkal in the Atlas Mountains. The beauty of these lands creeps up on you slowly: the tranquillity of things, the tiny, grey birds, the barren rocks, all make a lasting impression. I think they’re one of the most beautiful places on Earth, but as Darwin said, “after so very short a visit, one’s opinion is worth scarcely anything.”
Indians travelling to the Galápagos Islands will need to get a visa upon arrival in Ecuador and then pay the Galápagos National Park entrance fee of $100/`6,900 per person upon arrival at the archipelago. Flights from Delhi or Mumbai to Quito, Ecuador’s capital, usually have a layover in North America (Miami, Atlanta), and in a European hub like Amsterdam. From Quito, there are short flights to San Cristóbal and Baltra in the Galápagos. The writer travelled with Latin Trails, a South American boutique cruise company. The Sea Star cruises start at $4,649/`3.2 lakhs per person for a five-day/four-night stay.
