Camp Europe - Six-Month Outdoor Education Diploma

The 2020 Diplo program at Camp Adventure was truly a unique and amazing experience for me. Despite the fact that Corona was shutting down other camps and businesses around the world, we were still able to live and complete our training in our little camp community tucked away in the farmland of Northern Germany. Camp really felt like home after a short time of being there, knowing we were guaranteed room and board and work even if the summer season was canceled, which thankfully it was not. The other diplos became family, and we all worked together so well. I’m so grateful for this opportunity to train and work abroad in a program where I learned so many different skills, experienced a new culture, and even learned a new language. I highly recommend the program!

I really enjoyed my diplo experience even with the fear of Corona looming over everything. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better place to be during these times. I was surrounded by my amazing diplo family, I had my own room, we all cooked and ate together. I honestly forgot corona existed at times. Our first week of camp was surreal for me. So many new faces. I spent most of my placement teaching English and I loved it! Not only because my kids were great but I also felt we taught each other so much in the short time we had together. The Diplo program has been a great experience for me to grow as a person, make life long friends and see a lot of Germany despite these times.

Life changing for me! One of the best experiences I've ever had. I can only say thanks for the opportunity they gave me to be part of the Camp. It was an intense 6 months of learning, work and happiness. Of course I had difficult and stressful moments too, but in the end only the good memories remain. I hope I can come back one day to see again the great friends I made.
