This time, our leaf-loving panda Beanji drifted across the sea to a land of lava, giant turtles, and jungle secrets — the Galápagos Islands.

He arrived with nothing but a bamboo teapot and his curiosity. On a black sand beach, he napped beside sea lions and brewed hibiscus-leaf tea using warm volcanic stones. The wind carried salt and magic.

In the dense forest, Beanji met a wise old tortoise named Don Tortugo. He spoke slowly, smiled often, and introduced Beanji to a vine that makes passionfruit-infused jungle tea. They sat together under the canopy, sipping in silence as blue-footed boobies danced above.

As the sun set, Beanji scribbled into his travel journal: “Sometimes the rarest things are found when you move slowly and listen closely.”
