And you will already get the chance to test your skills and use what you learned with school tri...
Best summer of my life
by: Cooper Hardy - United StatesProgram: Earn your Outdoor Education Diploma in Europe in 6-MonthsI did the Camping Adventure Diplo program in 2022 and I must say it was the best summer of my life. I was a regular teamer in 2021 and enjoyed my time so much that I committed to coming back to do diplo. I am very happy with my decision to do diplo and not just freelancing because I got to be part of a special group of 17 that became more or less my family that summer. We did all of our training together and lived in close proximity, which created quick bonds. On the negative side, there were q...
Had a blast, see you next year!
by: Caoimhe McNally - IrelandProgram: Volunteer as a Summer Camp Counselor in EuropeIn short camp is a very special place where you can embrace the silliness, fun and engagement with the kids, so you all have the best summer of your lives. I loved my time sleeping under the stars, sporadic cotton eye joe routines, moments where innovation was crucial and bracing myself for the polar bear swims. I learned a lot about myself in this experience and loved meeting people in an international environment. I couldn't have been better prepared by the team, Evelyn, Patti P and Barry who ...

What inspired you to travel abroad?
Create an international network of summer camps throughout Europe that enables university students to gain international work experience. I believe in Outdoor Education as a way to promote universal values, the appreciation of other cultures and nature. I also believe in creativity as an effective method to promote affordable programs for university students and campers alike, to travel and learn. I believe in fraternity among cultures as a milestone for building mutual tolerance and respect. I believe in making efforts to build an international community willing to share every individual’s knowledge and experience. I value diversity as a full expression of tolerance of everyone and exclusion of no one. I also value imagination and fantasy as an effective doctrine of education on abstract but also quite important matters. To create ways of promoting fair opportunities for international camping, summer internship placements and work and travel experiences. To implement high standards of the North American Camping traditions exported to Europe. I value people’s time investment without a straightforward aim on profit, the help that comes honestly offered. In return, I believe in giving back accessible opportunities to students, low profile campers, and the host communities.
