Hey guys! I made a virtual tour of the zoo I worked at in Ecuador! Yurak Allpa, which means white earth in Kichwa (the indigenous language), is primarily an animal rehabilitation center that opens as a zoo to the public on the weekends to make enough money to buy find. I absolutely loved this apprenticeship, and it was the highlight of my experience. Enjoy!
Bienvenidos a Yurak Allpa
