2 unusual facts about Johanna Angermeyer


Johanna Angermeyer

After twenty years in Ecuador and the Galapagos, Johanna and her husband moved to England where they worked on a remote manor-house on the moors of Cumbria, managed gourmet cruises on barges floating through Europe and finally landed a job with the National Trust, caring for stately homes across the country.

Angermeyer's father Johannes Angermeyer and his four brothers, all artists and musicians, sailed from Hitler’s Germany in 1935 to the Galapagos but, after shipwreck off the coast of England, only four of the five made it to the then sparsely inhabited Enchanted Islands where they lived like Robinson Crusoes.
